    I can't play any racing game with TC.

    I get incredibly frustrated when the car won't accelerate under slight oversteer.

    I play with all aids off.

    I've been playing Forza 3 the past couple of days and i feel the experience of GT games with a twitchy car is why i can control the cars in Forza so easily. All the way up to the prototypes.

    GT still beats Forza on variety though. Where are the single seaters? the rally cars? the raid buggys? the old race cars?

    Forza is a game for people that know about todays cars and a few from the past. For me, the past is more important.

    For me, the thing Forza has over GT is a few race tracks and Porsche.

    Besides that, I'm still a GT fan. I read the other day how GT says its mostly American gamers that want damage sims in their racing games and most of these people will only play for a short time since they get frustrated after it becomes to hard to drive a broken car. Hence why i learn not to crash and crash physics aren't really all that appealing to me.

    + the director of Forza isn't a figure i respect. He's not about it for the cars in the same way Kaz is. He's just another gaming businessman.

    i agree with most of that.

    got a few rally cars.. Rs200 - peugot 206 rally car
    1 seaters like R1 racing cars? ir the 1 seater super cars?
    i don tthink there is 1 old race car in F3...lol



    Funny you should mention the director. I was playing in a match with a guy from Turn10 the makers of Forza, real late around 3-4am one night. And i asked him about how he felt about 950cars in GT5. He said that GT has alot of same cars like example the 240 coupe, and hatch. Which is cool but kind of pointless.. Me personally would like more variety.. like a hatch and a coupe, and 4door/3door etc. But he had a small point, like GT3 - 4 had alot of same cars, that served no purpose. the damage i got over.. because like you said it really isnt that important after awhile. But i just wish GT had more customization, thats what really does it for me...but ive said that a million times already..lol

    it was also funny because the other guys in the room, were like man forget Gran Turismo...this is forza..blah blah. but the Turn10 guy seemed like he wanted to play GT too...
