I'm a big GT fan as well. Starting playing GT1 since Play Station but after getting GT5 for Play Station 3, the mods are sooo limited on what you can do to cars. Went to my friends play Forza 3 and the map... Fujimi kaido or w.e its called blew me away. Only problem is I'm not used to the controls on the controller!!! I'll prob buy an XBOX just for Forza 4! Can't wait!

^Order it at FutureShop.


As for the DEMO, the only thing I don't like about it is the LOUD background music, I couldn't find a way to turn it down.

to turn off background music. Just use a usb drive and load it with one mp3. Turn on the mp3 then pause it will get rid of the ingame music.

About time. Is the update released?

I think I'll stick with my Forza still. It's been nothing but positive experiences for me personally LOL

I wasn't super impressed by the Demo. Driving physics seems very realistic, but hard to gauge with a gamepad. (Wish my G25 worked with my xbox) Track graphics are better, but honestly I'd rather have more tracks to choose from. Let's add some more real life tracks that we can actually drive in real life, like Portland, ORP, Thunderhill, MoSport, maybe some more F1 tracks like Monza and Spa.. etc etc.

Never gonna happen. Logitech didnt get the licence from Microsoft. I remember spending hours looking into it and why. Someone asked the same question on the logitech forums and one of the reps explained why it won't ever happen.

Only if someone makes some sort of "hack" then maybe. It's been how many years? Highly unlikely.

Man.. I was just at Mosport three weeks ago and it was absolutely brutal with all the blind corners, elevation changes and off-camber sweepers. It hadn't even been an hour, and an Evo 9 had already smashed into a wall. Absolutely fking nuts.

Logitech already produces licensed xbox 360 accessories, they just too cheap to include the hardware for XID in G wheels.

PS3/Windows uses USB HID which uses your CPU for calculating force feedback and input. 360 uses USB XID which offloads the processes for input and force feedback to a dedicated chip on the input device. XID costs more.
