Heads up if you play the foza games. Microsoft is banning people. This is one instances where I don't think a ban is appropriate. Most people that choose that paint scheme have it for the tv show. But I get that if you are younger than 35 you might not get the reference and just seen a car with a rebel flag. I updated my paint and my smokey and the bandit (ga license plate).

I rarely use either car and never in online (I assumed younger people might not know the history of the show)races. So I doubt that I would ever get reported. But I am not attached to it so repainting it eliminates the chance of accidentally using it.

I just started play Forza 4 today.  It's a lot of fun, but man, I'm all over the place!

I play motorsports (6) rather than horizon. There should be setting for auto breaking etc. I find the cockpit view the easiest to drive. Slower cars are often easier.

I have been playing with one of these for a few weeks. There was a learning curve but I think I am better with it

Is there that much difference between versions? I used to play Forza (2?) when I had an xbox. Now I have a PS4 and got Project Cars 2 when on sale for $7 I think. They seem very similar.

I think that racing games became acceptable with PS1 and n64. Since then it has been incremental upgrades. Graphics, # of tracks, # of cars and different physics for different cars.

I still have a ps2 hooked up I have gt3 a spec (2001), Forza 6 (2015) and Forza 7 (2017) on its way. They should all have leguna seca raceway for comparison

I have not played gt3 in a long time. I will break it out and see how it has held up. I actually think it will be good for a 20 year old game.

My 9 year old son and I will plays mario64 and crash bandicoot racing (PS1) on emulators andthey are as enjoyable as as kart 8 deluxe on the switch.
