I can't wait for Forza 3 too crunch but.....I just don't see why they needed auto-braking and now auto-upgrading?   Are there people out there who want a simracer and want to have the game play it for them?  Seems so contradictory to why someone would purchase a Forza game.  If you are a car lover you want realism, all this is just fluff and prolly there to satisfy MS.  The assists in Forza 2 were plenty to help out the noobs.   Just an option I know, but here's hoping T10 keeps the integrity of the leaderboards w/all these auto abilities in Forza 3.

Look at the sales, the numbers of people playing for years online, all the spinoff stuff..........so yeah, whether you like the franchise or not , they earned the praise and popularity they've gotten obviously.

Lost Odyssey if you like traditional jrpgs and a pretty good story.  Sacred 2 if you like grinding, leveling, looking for the best loot etc. w/a minimal story that is really just a framework for the top down hacking and looting.....f-ing addicting game I'll attest.

It is frustrating, been there done that,  3 times.  My advise to the tc is to have it repaired and trade for a Jasper Arcade w/ the 120gb HDD, and load all yur games and play from the drive...this has worked well for me at least.

Giant Bomb mostly(best community by far!), then IGN's 360 forum and a few other game forums on there as well, and sometimes to the Gamefaqs forums for specific game info.

Sacramento CA, about 90 miles from GB central.  Missed their party but the vid Vinny posted made up for that pretty much,lol.

Couple things to keep in mind imo.
1. Load the games you like/play a lot to the HDD(bigger the better), for better game performance, and less wear on the lens and gpu.
2. Keep the system well ventilated and clean.
3. Get XBL Gold if you didn't already.
4. A few of the classics to catch up on(if you didn't play them on the PC, and I don't know which were for both so...), Left for Dead, Halo 3, Mass Effect, Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, Battlefield: Bad Co., Forza 2, Too Human, Lost Odyssey, Rainbow Six: Vegas 1&2, Gears of War 1&2, and Sacred 2.

Great info in this thread...makes me want to break out ME and finish my second playthrough(soldier), or start a brand new character as I already have the AR achievement.  Vanguard or Adept would be my quandry.  I played the soldier to 55 so far, and always rolled w/tech and biotic characters instead....did I miss out on some great fun?

Yeah, I'd certainly play a new BG.  I liked the BG:DA xbox version, but I really loved TH, and I hope SK spends their resources on the planned trilogy instead....but that is all in limbo I spose....sadly for me.  BTW, Sacred 2 is really pretty good on the 360, for all those loot whoring rpg addicts out there,lol.

I just DL'd 1943, so yeah I'd love to play in a squad of players who talk and work as a team.  I'm on PST, available in PM only , and GT= PWEID5.
