     I love this game too much, because For some reaosn i have been playing it all day everyday ever since i got back from germany. There's a good reason for that though. It's fucking awesome. Just to give you an idea of how too much i love it, i have driven over 2000 miles in this game, and have spent over 20 hours driving - NOT actual playtime, time actually on the track, so excluding those many hours in the auction house, searching for online games, in the livery editor, tuning cars... Now i just found this out by pressing Y when on the 'my stats' tab.

    it gets better though. It also says i have only done 20% of the single player. Let;s do the math - To complete it at 100%, i would have driven roughly... 10000 miles?! And 2000 miles, divided by 20 hours means i have an average speed of just under 100mph. Not bad.

    all this is very interesting, but what makes forza 2 the BEST racing experience? is it...


    crazy exhilarating driving?

    I need to go back and finish collecting cars.  I'm only missing two from Europe, but still a bunch from North America and Asia.  I have high expectation for Forza 3.

    Sweet blog mate ^+^ - the mroe you post on this game the more i regret having not picked it up sooner - would you say it handled more arcadey ?? or is it a bit more reeled in to the (hate to comapre them) turismo territory? either way the game seems to have a lot more emphasis on speed and racing than car porn - even though those screens look gorgeous!!

    This game makes me want to get another 360 really bad. I dont understand how the Gran Tourismo guys can spend soooooooo damn long on a game and it still be a bit crap. Forza is like sex but without the cleanup.

    not really arcadey - There's a lot involved in turning, like tuning setups, braking distance, grip, throttle, line, etc but once you get a feel for things it's pretty sweet

    True, pretty much all of Forza's achievements are hard as nails to get without devotion. 

    And no fast driving achievements.. there is the "hard charger" and some others i forget that reward ye for driving well.. not fast =[
