Paradox 92 Report post Posted April 13, 2010 The console racing neighborhood changed when this was released in May 2005 for the original Xbox. I still remember hearing one of my online opponents say in a confused voice "how are you out-accelerating me? we're in the same car!" I just laughed and said its all in the build/tuning. Alot has changed since then, but it was quite a leap and a big risk on the Xbox system at the time. Yeah, I'm a Forza fan...because back then, I was SO GLAD to finally have a racer that you actually had to use the brakes, instead of using the guardrails to get around corners. It really was the closest to a pc sim that one could get. I also remember trying out the multiscreen option at LAN parties..yeah, that was in the original! It would be fun to do a revisit to old sims like this...maybe even have a shootout of sims from the same era. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tinker 15 Report post Posted April 13, 2010 I use to do the down hills in a WRX Scooby with the brakes and gas on full and only using the brakes to mod the speed...red hot disc's. Realistic, hell no but still fun. Hey it worked with the controller. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
