Disclaimer - Every camp has these kind of members, i'm not trying to imply that it's an exclusive to the 360 camp.

First off, I quoted you in order to get you to think you had been dragged into a pointless argument when you saw the blue text.

Second of all, what if we count PC and 360 as Microsoft exclusives. Is it exclusive then? Stop trying to take my exclusives away from me!

Well played sir, well played .

Mixing PC with 360? That will never go, we all know this:

A spec is still pretty fun, at least until endurance series. How do you guys do the endurance series? I can not play that long straight. Also B spec is terrible, who thought it would be fun to give a driver a car and let them race for you and then they win u get money. I usually mute it and play a PC game or read a book while doing B spec.

I'm up to the Le Mans 24 hr on the endurance races. It was a struggle to get that far; 9hrs around Tsukuba is pretty boring! However, since they've added the ability to save when you come in the pit it's made it a lot easier. Annoyingly you can't play any other races until you finish the endurance race but I still prefer it to having to continually drive for an entire day. I used to hype myself up for at least a week before I could do an endurance race. I'm gonna give it a break and do some of the online events before I start on Le Mans.

I got bored with it, there are many flaws and missing features in GT5. But, to its credit, Forza 3 (or 4 is it) is much worse.

And I have a G27 wheel, so don't give me any sh*t about that one^_^

i disagree  http://www.metacritic.com/game/xbox-360/forza-motorsport-4  http://www.metacritic.com/game/xbox-360/forza-motorsport-3  http://www.metacritic.com/game/playstation-3/gran-turismo-5 


your opinion = metacritic?

I was thinking the same thing, lol.

I'm at the 9 hour Tsukaba one as well. The 4hr Nurburgring was over in a flash, seemed more like an hour while 4hr Tsukaba already felt like a day. Maybe I'll make my own endurance race with accelerated day/night cycle, 24hr is simply too much for me.
I might reach lvl 40 some day, but I'll stay at 97% game completion. The Vettel challenges are beyond my reach as well.

I haven't played gt5 since last summer but I'm going to start again this week. I loved it when I played it but then my wheel starting acting funny or I just sucked and ended up raging.

Might as well post this here. Initial D 'flashback' scenes re-created in GT5 with some fancy video effects at the beginning and end. Super fun.

That's the same for me too. I managed Monza and Nurburgring, but Suzuka is beyond me. I also suck at drifting so the Loeb Rally challenge is just too much for me (harder than the Vettel challenges for me). I think I'll get onto Le Mans eventually but I'll seriously have to build myself up for that!

I actually thought that the Loeb Rally challenge was pretty easy. The Handbrake drift is GOD there XD.

I had trouble with Loeb Rally too initially, until I noticed that traction control had reset to 5 again. After I turned it off it was instant gold, saved almost 10 sec on the big mountain track. I love drifting along that track.
Nothing helped with the Vettel challenges though. I guess I need a wheel for that. It's too easy to nick the grass with one wheel with the controller. I did the Suzuka endurance race with the X2010 to get comfortable with the car but even after that bronze was still not reachable on Suzuka.
