Same...trading midnight club 3 dub edition in for a credit toward it...that game blows. It held my attention for about an hour.

Really? I thinks its really fun!

However I wouldn't mind customizing my own car and taking it for a spin rather than some pimped out Escalade. I'll wait for the Forza review before I make a decision.

Get an emulator like me, then download the game(given you have cable or dsl) Its free. But that is awsome, is it a 5 door or 4 door.

Yeah i bought it out here yesterday. good game so far. certainly not as detailed as Gt4, but i think that is better in certain ways. cars are pretty accurate, having the MSP in there kicks ASS!!111!!1

Autocross mode is fantastic, and career mode is more structured than GT4 (i like this, IMHO).

As far as handling, i have not used it with a wheel yet, but the gameplay controls are pretty good and car tunability is just as goood as GT4. Starting the game is a lot more fast paced from the start (no licensing, etc.) so i liked that.

Graphics are geared more towards NFS2 as far as setting/design/brightness, as opposed to GT4 graphics (real, standard, some say plain).

Overall, its a great game through the first 6 hours or so. I like GT4 slightly better for the only fact that there are more cars and a wider range of tasks. Still a great game though.

I am not sure if they made 2 versions of this game like they did GT4, i assume not, but in case they do, i am playing the chinese version, so it could be different thatn what you get.

I got the game, its pretty bad ass, i bought the MSP and maxed it out already, I made it look like mine too because they have real after market parts for our car, like the DGM front lip.

I love the game. Bought it last night, it is real simualtor IMO. The steering can be a challenge but I am getting used to it. So far I have a maxed out Mazda 3 and a GTO I am building up. The GTO is gay but it sounds wicked!

At 1st I didn't like it but once you slap a turbo on your mazda 3 it changes everything!

i hate gt4. the steering in gt4 in unrealistic. the game should let you roll your car if you turn too hard instead of just making you hit the wall or keep going straight.

does anyone else find the game frustratingly unstable? I'm playing the damn thing on my Xbox and it's crashed twice, and freezes in the middle of a race for about 5 seconds on every third race or so and then the music stops playing. Sometimes at the end of the race I get a "There's a problem with the disc you're using. It may be dirty or damaged" MY ASS it's a brand new disk... fricking MicroSHIT..

It's the xbox not the disk. Mine does it with a few games and hasn't with this one yet. 2 of my friends replaced their xbox's because of it and the same disk's work fine. Don't worry, the new "Fricking MicroSHIT BOX dos" will be out soon.

its actually not the xbox its just the dvd-rom drive. xbox used to use a thompson drive which is known for having the dirty disk error. you can actually replace just the dvd-rom drive.

Anything made by RCA is junk, nice of Microsoft to contract out the manufacturing of the Xbox to RCA, and who know who they contract it out to!

Its not just the Thompsons either some of the samsungs did this also, you can find them on ebay for 28$ and they are supposed to have the problem fixed, None of my customers have had a problem with thier replacements. Although they only get used for ten minutes every new game (evil) And a modded box's load times are much faster then reading from the disc! PM me for more details.

samsung didn't have the problem. at least not to the point that people were replacing them. everyone i know that has a thompson drive has had at least a couple dirty disc errors. everyone i know with a samsung has never had one.

The samsungs had a problem with it later on but they were few and far betweeen I have had one of my personal ones go out and two others so yes they do. This is why all of mine have an early samsung or a phillips. (dark)
