Yeah i am with you, Forza becomes very boring very quickly. It just becomes a bit of a slog, and even then, most of the races you can just buy, by upgrading your car way beyond the competition.
Dirt is a lot of fun with a lot of variation, though it doesn't have the best handling or framerate in the world, but at least it is fun.

yeh i was heading more towards forza but i didnt realise that the single player was such a grind, might go dirt then, even if the handling sucks? lol

Forget both, wait for PGR and sega rally. If you must toture yourself buy Dirt

Andr3w · 27 Jul 2007 at 21:36

ah, im just wanting two games, i was thinking of one of those and possible another game but i might end up having to go for two random games! Graw 2 = good?

JUMPURS · 27 Jul 2007 at 21:52

do not get GRAW2 if you are not going to play it online, single player is about 6 hours on hard.

Get Rainbow six vegas instead

Andr3w · 27 Jul 2007 at 22:00

completed vegas already! lol

ive completed all of them apart from crackdown!

ahh test drive, ive nevery really heard much about that game

Shamikebab · 27 Jul 2007 at 22:20

Test Drive Unlimted and Crackdown are very good games, definitely worth playing

Id also highly recommend:

Saints Row
Viva Pinata
The Darkness
Guitar Hero 2

I played Dirt on my friends 360 recently using the MS wheel. He convinced me that it was better than Motorstorm.

I then played it, only to realise it quite possibley the least fun I've ever had with any game

Tried Forza and thought it was a lot better, but it was only the demo.

ste_bla · 27 Jul 2007 at 22:24

PGR3 > TDU > > > > > Forza2 + DiRT

Also;

Gears of War
Crackdown
Saints Row (Bit short)
UEFA
Rayman - Its a bit of fun/different

I think Dirt is more fun.I really thought I would enjoy Forza2(before I bought a 360) butn now that I've got the game I don't like it at all.Its not really fun,its a bit too long winding and its not the type of game you can have a quick fun blast,it feels a bit like a chore.

Andr3w · 27 Jul 2007 at 22:27

so you would all pick test drive over dirt/forza? :eek:

yep in a heart beat, really fun game. First driving game i've played that acurately recreates the feel of a lazy afternoon drive, so much fun to just cruise around the island.
