That is a very cool idea - a "theme" rather than just performance requirements ;)

I'll have to think of something fun like that for my next time :D

Oh yeah, you all need to go find the old Forza 2 thread, we had all kinds of themes. WTCC night, ALMS night, Supercar team racing night, hot-hatches night, Euro Sportscar night, Viper vs. Vette, etc. We talked about a "the best car you can get a picture of yourself taken in this week" night but decided it'd be too tough.

Yall would lose that one. I see Ferrari's and Viper's at the neighborhood Starbucks on a regular basis. There's a Nissan GT-R at my work, along with a C6Z, some 6.3 V8 MB, few different Porsches, half a dozen Bimmers, Aston Martins, new Jags, etc. South FL has too much money, haha

Do we get special recognition in your next episode of Played or special "behind the scenes" info on upcoming games or anything at all?

You continue to get my totally honest first impressions of games, 100% free access to my blog and get my total appreciation! :)


I think I've got 2 of a few different cars, as I bought one and then got for free. Add me and I'll see what I've got later

Will do--thanks!

If I could get into the dealer cars we've got an R8 5.2 and 2011 Porsche GT3 RS at the Porsche dealership, Lamborghini Murcielago or Ferrari 599 at the sports car dealership, or a GT-R at the Nissan dealership (two of them sitting outside next to the street...

If not I could get in my buddy's C6Z or Viper GTS.

Not as much money/blingy cars here in the dirty South.

SO I'm going to totally slum here and ask--anyone interested in gifting a car to a newb? It can be anything considering I've played the game for all of 5 mins. :)

XBL = v0mitg0d (in zeros)
I checked and I do have a few cars. A couple R2's, a Camaro SS, maybe something else. Add me and I'll gift 'em over next time I'm in Forza.

Me and Arkaign live close to RUF. I can walk down to my parking garage and take a picture in an F430 Scuderia, a Gallardo Superleggera (this one is actually a class mate's in college), 911 Turbo, like 10 AMG mercedes (including a few really heavily modified ones).

There's also some Maserati's and an SLR McClaren but I don't know those guys very well.

Alright, being in B class with MR didn't leave me many options that I liked, went ahead and made a Cayman and it's alright. Feels solid, I'm not sure how competitive it'll be though. Here's to hoping.

Was going to try to get some racing in this last wkend along with trying to get a car for this wk rdy, even though I'd probably be late on wed. Had some things to get done around the house & ended up not getting any game time.

You'll be fine, join in when you can!

Also, I'll say it now to get it out of the way:

For this week if you plan to race please have a headset if at all possible. Last week we had a few issues with people letting someone know they were passing only to be run off the road. We love having fun and racers of all skill levels are welcome (you will get better if you race with us, trust me), but while accidents do happen (usually myself being the cause of them D:) if we can avoid them it's a good thing all around. Nothing ruins your fun like being taken out of a race because someone didn't know you were there and now you're 15 seconds behind the next guy.

We've got a good crew, you new guys as a whole are some durn good/fun/clean racers, lets keep the spirit of Forza night going as strong and fun as ever!!

Yeah, I thought about both of those, the Lotus is overused and the NSX is boring though.

Gotta stay true to my Porsche Love!
