This is a very competent racing title and rivals the Sony Gran Turismo series for simulation experience when you put the difficulty settings to max. It's just a shame that Microsoft do not supply a decent steering wheel to accompany their software.

A very worthy alternative to the Gran Turismo series if you can't afford a PS3

Converted to Forza now

With Forza 3 out and everybody on my Xbox Live playing it I couldn't see the fuss so decided to try this one as it was going at a great price.

Took a while to get adjusted to the handling and the damage especially after playing games like Project Gotham but once I did the game started becoming fun. (The damage can be turned off if you don't want it)

There are loads of cars, tracks and the game will take a long time to fully complete. The visuals still look good to me.

Now I think Forza is brilliant and I have invested in the sequel!

Great

The best game of its type at the time. Its even still good against the new version 3. The graphics are that good! Forza 3 is only better for the rewind button. Nothing more annoying than going off on the last lap of a 45 lap race and having to do it all again for a perfect score.
I have 2 copies of this so we can do multiplayer on 2 separate consoles. On a boys night in this game is always sought out.

Great value car racing game

This is great value for money. As with all these things this is not the latest version of this game therefore it is not as good but it is good enough to amuse players for a reasonable amount of time.

Brilliant Racer

Forza 3 might be out now but don't dismiss this baby. It is a gem of a racer still worth playing today.

The Arcade mode comes with time trials (set car and track) and exhibition races both of which earn cars. You can also free ride any circuit if you want to practice.

The career is the meat of the game. Loads of champonships and events that earn credits to buy cars and upgrades. You level up as you play so some events are locked out until you reach the required level or have an appropriate vehicle. There is plenty to do although I would have preferred not to jump around so much to partake. The handling is not quite full simulation but there is marked differences across the cars.

The multiplayer is excellent as well and you can boost your credits.

Overall, an excellent racer with good presentation, good graphics and sound, a good selection of tracks and a big dollop of excitement thrown in. It is not too difficult but there are hours of fun if you want to clear up the game.

Try it.
