I <3 Forza 2. I played GT once, but I liked Forza better because of the custom paint jobs. Plus, it's got Porsches!

Provided I'm driving, and there aren't any fuzz around, driving is always better in real life. Forza's great for repeatedly crashing expensive cars into walls, though.

Real life racing scares me a little bit.

That's tough because they're all very cool.

Put me in an old Nova that I built, myself, and I'm happy.
I actually went out and bought the steering wheel/pedals for GT2 and found it was a waste of money.
The sensitive controls for GT2 where a lot better than the 'All or Nothing' of GT1, though.
I did miss my b*tchin' Miata that I'd built up in GT1, when #2 came out, however.
The Corvettes suck in these games.
As do the Camaros but, I can see why, after driving both in real life.

Snaps, Danny.
You've got a Bird?
What year?
I've got a '79 Esprite Bird torn down to bolts.
The only thing missing is the intake and carb that I sold.
You need parts? I'm the guy.....only if it's a '77-82' - or if you need some sorta' older stuff (i.e. the original 301c.i. engine, tank, doors, fenders, seats, gauges, steering box........oil......lol.
The guy I bought if from (in '94) offered to buy it back (in '06) but never came back....
I got parts! You got holes!
Fast Dougie's Firebird expo's where it's at......
What'cha need kid?

I've never played either of them, but Forza. I read an article on it in PopSci about how realistic it is. Also, Porsches (pronunciation por-sha) ftw. My step-dad just got a 944 a few weeks ago. It's not even an S or a turbo, but he can pass 2 people a once in a space where he could hardly get past one in his old car (Saturn VUE). |

I can believe that. And I already knew about the correct pronunciation of Porsche.

GT has the photo thingy! =3 There's Porsches in GT too. But it's RUF instead of Porsche.
Only thing it lacks are Lambos...

It's a photo shoot thing, where you get a 3d scene, you put the car somewhere, put the camera somewhere, mess about with it and take the photo! You can also take photos from replays. Plus you can save them to a USB drive thingy to put on the PC!

And I already knew about the correct pronunciation of Porsche. Yes, but 9 in 10 people do not  My step-dad wants to get a lisence plate "POR SHA". Also, today I played Forza 2 for about 30 seconds in wal-mart. It was fun. But so are all racing games... Also, the graphics were shiney. |

Forza 2 FTW! Its driving dynamics are very realistic, and it has a nice selection of cars. There's nothing like beating a bunch of 300-horsepower rice-burners with a 100-horsepower Lotus Elise.... It also has many old musclecars and such. I can't make a very authoritative judgment because I have never played GT, but Forza is an excellent game.
