buds Posted September 3, 2006 Posted September 3, 2006 Having bashed previous efforts in this series, i've been having a look at the latest upcoming offering for the 360. Basically i want a fun online racer to tide me over till forza2. Looks interesting online have to say. 1600 miles or real roads on an island. So you can just cruise around and challenge others driving about or meet at fixed points for races. Could be good, so long as cars handle at all decently and people pick it up http://uk.xbox360.ign.com/articles/727/727240p1.html Quote
buds Posted September 3, 2006 Author Posted September 3, 2006 Just noticed that the demo is on xbox live if anyone fancies checking it out. Currently downloading so i'll post back once its finished Quote

Shame the telly aint mine but the old mans So when i move next week im stuck on old 32" normal jobbie Edit - Still downloading. Dont know why so slow today, normally a heck of alot faster Quote

buds Posted September 3, 2006 Author Posted September 3, 2006 Its good craic online! Someone download and hop on! Not sure how much of a pure driving simulation it is, but seems a laugh Quote
Sarnie Posted September 3, 2006 Posted September 3, 2006 Its good craic online! Someone download and hop on! Not sure how much of a pure driving simulation it is, but seems a laugh You still online? Quote
Removed Posted September 3, 2006 Posted September 3, 2006 is there a PC version so that I can whip your arses? Quote
Sarnie Posted September 3, 2006 Posted September 3, 2006 is there a PC version so that I can whip your arses? This is the year 2006 mate. What next, an Amiga version? Quote
buds Posted September 3, 2006 Author Posted September 3, 2006 there will be mate, but i dont think you can play us Quote
Removed Posted September 3, 2006 Posted September 3, 2006 is there a PC version so that I can whip your arses? This is the year 2006 mate. What next, an Amiga version? you kidding right? PC games, of whatever type, are vastly superior than console botched up jobs, no contest OR discussion to be had mate. IIRC there was a game recently on the 360 where the multiplayer was "shared " with the PC version? was it a FPS of some sort? Quote
buds Posted September 3, 2006 Author Posted September 3, 2006 Maybe then. Tbh this is only to tide me over till forza. And you will need a 360 for that Quote
Sarnie Posted September 3, 2006 Posted September 3, 2006 Maybe then. Tbh this is only to tide me over till forza. And you will need a 360 for that Trying to get on bud my connection keeps failing. Something to do with my network connections Quote
Sarnie Posted September 3, 2006 Posted September 3, 2006 Excuses! Got my connection sorted This download is taking ages though How long did yours take Bud? Quote
JimmyJam75 Posted September 4, 2006 Posted September 4, 2006 I tried a demo on this a few weeks ago, and i'm sure it was a Live demo, but I could invite any friends to it.. it just seemed to hit & miss randomly.. weird.. is this latest demo a new one? also, i think this game has been delayed.. should be out this Friday. (I think). Quote
buds Posted September 4, 2006 Author Posted September 4, 2006 Yeah friday its out. My download took forever. Actually gonna buy this as it was a laugh online. Plus i want to mod a 350 so it spanks the ferrari's It will keep me going a few months till forza! Quote
burgershot Posted September 8, 2006 Posted September 8, 2006 Just got my copy - and from looking at the map and the fact that there's a Nissan 'dealer' in the game where you can buy a 350Z and the S Tune Version too - i know what i'll be doing tonight and for the next two weeks solidly until the real thing arrives. Gamertag is (imaginatively) 'Burgershot' so if anyone fancies a blast tonight i should be on once the wife goes to bed (these days about 10ish after looking after the kids all day) until the wee small hours Quote
buds Posted September 8, 2006 Author Posted September 8, 2006 Bloody crappy Play have yet again, not delivered anything on time of release date! When will i learn to stop using them? Will look out for you once im on. Apparently their are 3 stages of tuning you can do to each car? I'll be same, tune a 350 as high as it goes and race with that till i need something faster Quote
Stew Posted September 11, 2006 Posted September 11, 2006 I bought my copy yesterday. Played for about an hour then got sent offshore first thing this morning. Gutted! It was a pretty fun hour though! Any other racing games worth considering? Quote
leebar Posted September 11, 2006 Posted September 11, 2006 Have been playing it since Saturday (alot and still pants), saving up to start an online club, unless anyone else get's there first hope to start the 350z-uk club tonight, will post deatils for those big kids who are interested. Nice to see a Coupe and S-Tune coupe in the game. (my S-Tune is now spec'd up to R-Tune) Just a shame there is no Roadster. Sarnie, you'll be pleased to know you can get UY and yes that was the colour I went for Quote
buds Posted September 11, 2006 Author Posted September 11, 2006 Leebar, i got mine saturday too! Let me know when you start club I have a serious collection of cars already Nismo R-Tune Power was my first ( well alfter that crappy Audi ) Quote
leebar Posted September 11, 2006 Posted September 11, 2006 Started playing with bikes as well now, did the "tour of the island" 118 miles of full tilt bike engine through the suround sound, oh how the wife loved that Quote
buds Posted September 11, 2006 Author Posted September 11, 2006 Buy a lotus Exige or Caterham and belt those through surround sound! You on tonight? Quote
