After playing for a couple of days I had done all I wanted to do on it.
I've got every Gran turismo released and 5 was one of the most disappointing games I have played. I was counting down the days until its release..... Shame they took so long because I bought an xbox for forza to pass the waiting time. Glad I did now.
Plus with forza you get a new one every 2 years and Turn10 have always improved and added more depending on what the community forums wanted (such as the car pack with the rs500). Where as Polyphony promised soo much with gt5, and all they added was go-karts and nascar. Two of the most boring motorsports! lol
Well said mate, I've also had every gt game and I even purchased a ps3 for gt5. It really was dire. I've been playing forza since forza2 and I find it's way better and I was a die hard gt fan. They are also dragging out that licence shit. Every game same old shit. At least forza I can stick an RS engine in my fiesta
