***The Official Forza Motorsport 3 Thread***

Ok, I concede that my comment about playing a legit copy before release online is clearly wrong :o

However, the other points I was trying to make still stand. MS used to ban consoles, not gamertags. This was when it was easy to detect copied games and hacked firmware. It's now extremly difficult to detect the pirates if they are using stealthed rips of retail discs. They now appear to dish out gamertag bans on the following criteria:

- Playing games weeks before release.
- Playing review copies.

My point was that if the bannings were simply due to playing the game early (which is what the ban notice states btw) then it wouldn't be wise to play even a legitimate copy online prior to release. It appears that the leaked game was a review copy, so yeah, it'll probably be fine to play a legit game online.
 
:eek:

Didn't think it would work but I entered my code for the Benchmark High Speed ring (airfield fun time area) + Legacy car pack in anyway and its downloading now - thought this might be locked till Friday, but no!

:D

YEA"!!!!!
 
Popped into my local Tescos and tried the old 'I'm after a copy of Forza 3, but I think you've sold out - do you have any out back?' but it didn't work :(

:)

LOL. I've tried that before.

It was for Bioshock a day before it came out. The bloke got me one out and was just about to put it through when a supervisor spotted it and said I have to come back at 12am :(
 
Did not measure but it did not feel any longer than any other 360 game. You get asked to install disk 2 after you start playing, that takes 3 or 4 minutes. For the LE you must download the track pack and cars etc too, that is 550mb or so!

Game is utter win btw.
 
Its pretty amazing how much you get for £40-£50.

I'm just messing in the storefront and its crazy.

I've done a few races in the season play but to be honest i don't know where to start, there is that much to do.

I think i'm going to spend tonight in the paint editor. Really wish i didn't have work at 6am.:mad:

A stunning game.

Thanks,
Likely to be the weekend before I get to really give it a whirl and damn have to download and rip to each friggin console seperately. Will be worth it in the end though.

Someone care to post up a pic of the LE box and contents?

Just noticed my LE editions from the £39.95 place have shipped as well.
Ive NEVER spent so much primarily because of one game in my life, over £1500 on this game, kinda crazy.

Hope I like it...

Just ordered the limited edition, it came back in stock on the site that was showing out of stock yesterday :)
Wonder when I'll get it. :p
 
Let us know how that improves in real usage over FM2

I'll try but it will probably take me all night looking for a car to copy.

There are already some amazing paint jobs on the store front. I think the 5 star system could be a little vague. 10 would have been better.
