New Games Schedule

yea they all seem to have violence, I prefer the 'spending seven hours trying to work out which combination of wine bottles to pull out of a wine rack' approach to adventure gaming lol (true story line from broken sword).

Star Wars : Knights Of the Old Republic

IS the one for you then sir.

The seed has been sewn, it looks like i may be racing you all very shortlysoonish

He's gone for the central heating system guys......damn you all!

I have intimated that i would like the Xbox Elite for my birfday

Whether it happens we shall see, i think she was hoping to get me a DVD lol

i am now running an elite , no difference in picture quality at all but it does have a 120gb hard drive which when the november update comes you will be able to play all your games straight from the hard drive which should be cool , £249 from play.com with free delivery or £259 from Argos etc

Aye thats what i saw.

Just really looking forward to maybe bashing some doors with you guys on forza,

"other titles are available"

Jizzy quick note........bashing doors.........erm how can I say this, you'll get banned LOL I know it's a figure of speech but you'll find out racing with these guys and indeed any races on here is simulation stuff, damage turned up to the max to diswade anything other than an accidental rub or you end up with your radiator lying on the track

"Rubbin's Racing Baby"

dont worry im all into the simulation stuff m8, not one of these punt you off types. nowt wrong with a little nudge now and again, you know to let you know im there

many an evening has a mic been turned off and then the console following a little tap mid race , an apology usually fixes it though ( thats if u can get in quick enough before they turn the console off )

Eh?

Whats all this console turning off business?????

Nowt worse than a sore loser m8, imo people always get whats coming to them, if they punt you off unfairly then they will get theirs at some point.

But my philosophy is if you cant beat them on the track, then you CANT beat them, play buy the rules its much more satisfying

Just my opinion is all.

its a funny old game forza is , if you have all the damage turned on and some scrote rams you to get past because they cant outbrake you etc , its more like F1 than touring cars if that makes any sense , the skill is in the overtaking and braking

Yeah it does,

You can tell ive never played it online before. LOL i enjoy the realism side of things more than anything.

Im sure there are lots of "nuances" that are specific to online console gaming or more specifically racing gaming that im not aware of.

My multiplayer exp has always been in rts games of FPS.

I suppose ill just figure it out as we go

The skill is in beating the guy fairly an squarly, taps and bumps happen but as long as you shout up on the mike a "sorry mate" then theres no problem. You get online racers who can only win by cheating, running into the back of you at braking zones, leaning on you up the inside on corners and even ramming you off the track on the straights as you overtake them! when you get a room of "clean" racers the game, whatever it is, is just 100% more enjoyable. One of the reasons for this forum is for people with this attidude to get together and race. You'll see how 1 bad racer in a field of 16 can destroy the enjoyment of a race when you go online LOL

BAD RACERS!

CLEAN RACERS!

Oh kool my style is about 2/3rds clean 1/3 not.
According to them vids.

I like to mix it up, but not to an extent where you literally punt someone off or send em spinning, but i cant see owt wrong with a little door rubbing in the corners.

Door rubing in corners works ok in say GT5 or even ferrari challenge, defending your line and blocking is part of racing, In Forza 2 you can "swap paint" as it where when things get tight you just have to judge it so your not going to take the other guy off the track.......whe you play it you'll see what I mean. 2 cars on the edge of traction in forza 2 means on the edge of traction, it takes very little to knock a guy off the road
If you are being agresive to the point of taking people out the race to get past thats bad racing jizzy But again you'll experience this in the game. I've had countless races with howler and manse where no ones giving an inch in the first corner, we all know each others driving style and that they can keep the preasure on through the bend, the cars look like theyve been through a demonic carwash at the end of the turn but we'd pop out still 3 abreast LOL then of course it sometimes went horibley wronginside guy clips the high cerb and we all end up sitting in the kitty litter in a cloud of smoke.....at this point photos are taken and the shame starts

Oh and heres spa in the wet!

lol, sounds like fun to me hehe.

like you i do enjoy swapping paint but if i get it all wrong ill apologize, as the likelihood is ill be sat next to you wondering how i ended up facing that way

just posted 4 pics up in the gallery of an old HDvg forza2 race , pic 2 was me , howler and hereward entering a corner ( notice the car on the grass on the left ) pic3 was him trying to get back on the track and pic 4 was the resulting chaos and yes i think at least 2 consoles got swithed off in under a minute of that happening lol yes that was my saab he smacked into and collected hereward and howler in the process

Quick note I'm in the corado on the inside keeping out of the way, next is howler in the lancier then the late great mercy (dirty dirty driver) in the car in the center and poor manse over in the kitty litter in the saab

Same race same people, I'm again tucked up at the back, and here comes mercy on a corner cutting exercise!



Of course he has to come back onto the track....right into the group! and if you look at the first pic again that was the carnage that resulted!

LOL not what id call paint swapping was that .

BTW owen, nice car

Why do you guys switch off btw. why not just quit the race

it doesn't always get turned off lol , just when its about 2am and you are tired and stressed and some numpty rams you off lol

mercy uk what a shit driver he was it was all ok if he was leading but if he was behind you, you'd know you were going to get rear ended !!!

oh the shame of it all , did i mention his name ?? but yeah it was usually mercy and he was shit !

Was he in a clan of yours or something? or just some random guy you met online for a race?
