Anyone bought Forza 4? - GoFuckYourself.com

I have to admit I'm trying my hardest to like it because I'm a big fan of the game but there isn't really much that impresses me over Forza 3 besides the "turn/drift" indicator thing. Haven't played online yet though.

Bought it last week and am really happy with it.

The headtracking is good but I ended up turning it off because if you lift your hand off the wheel it swings side to side and gives you the shits.

GFX are far superior to Forza3 and the list of cars available is huge too.

They have made it far easier to earn upgrades and credits in game which is another huge plus IMO.

All round I think it is definitely worth the money, however i'm only a casual gamer - perhaps the more serious gamers can chime in.

What is headtracking? You must have the steering wheel setup to play on?

Yeah I'm used to turning all the assistance like driving line, traction control, abs, etc off but I had to turn the steering help on because every single car was violent as hell to drive and spin out like nothing.

Credits/points are given out so easily now that I don't even know what to spend it all on. Not a bad thing at all.

I'm sure the graphics are better, but unless I'm looking at a side by side comparison I really don't see anything mind blowing TBH.

Got suckered into buying the 7 or so car packs ahead of time when I bought the game so it cost me a little over $90 for one game. I didn't mind at all until I was let down by it. Maybe I'll get more into it when I have more cars to play with.

Headtracking is hooked up to the kinect -ie when you tilt your head the driver turns his head into the corner / in the direction you want. It is great except for the part when you scratch your nose and the headtracking goes side to side.

Yes wheel set up.

The credits is great, I hate having to play hundreds of laps just to buy a car or mods for it. Now with the free mods after a certain level for each manufacturer = great idea!
