You all can do whatever you want, I got bored with the Forza games after the first one over 10 years ago. You definitely could not convince me to switch to an inferior platform for just one game though, that is lunacy.

What will most likely happen is one day I'll move to PC, opens up a whole new world of driving sim stuff and my current wheel will work with it.

Also, it sounds like Microsoft is starting to move towards cross-platform compatibility with Xbone and PC going forward in general.

For sure. Justin and I were talking earlier and it's definitely going to be a game that sucks up a ton of time. I only played a few hours last night so still a big learning curve. I have just been scooping up everything I find for now. Selling the stuff isn't worth that much so I am not sure what really to do. Is there trading?

crap. i hit 15 and now i'm in a new dark zone category. friend lied to me and said "no, that's your dz level that matters." being game level 14 in the dz 1-14 zone was a lot of fun. being 15 in 15-19 not so much... and it's completely barren.

I am only like 5 or 6 at this point. Haven't ventured into the dark zone yet. Friend told me it wasn't really worth it until I was level 10.

Haven't played a racing video game in a while because honestly they get tired to me pretty quickly, but wow the new GT looks stunning and possibly worth it just for that.

I'm still unclear if GT Sport is just a teaser for GT7 or what. Supposedly GT7 is going to be the first FIA sanctioned online racing league with a national tournament. Either way, if they manage to make the FFB more simple and reliable than Project cars, I'll definitely be picking it up.

I think GT Sport is their online gaming mode, that apparently has a real life prize / prizes for the winner. Can't wait to hear about how people cheat their way around that one :lol:

Ah gotcha. I hope its not online only, otherwise I'll probably wait until GT7 is out.

Speaking of racing games I'm tempted to pick up Dirt 3, supposedly it has great physics and the FFB just works, unlike Project Cars which has you endlessly dicking with parameters instead of playing.

does it? I see lots of jaggies, lowish res textures, and what looks to be running at a low resolution. Could be a PS3 game. Daytime/dry racing games are relatively light on the hardware. Honestly both PCars and Driveclub look dramatically better.

But even if it looked fantastic, it took 3+ years for Polyphony to come out with a slimmed down "prologue"-ish game and they still have the nerve to charge $60 for it? :finger: During that time there have been 2 full forzas out for xbo.
Ive blindly bought the last 3 GT games purely out of fandom which have all been rehashed garbage. So until the GT series can show me they have moved on from the 1990s and actually innovate and improve, they arent getting a nickel of mine. (rant over, u mad bro etc etc) :bootyshake:
