[scottxnizzle]

Been thinking about picking this up after I finish MGSV, but I have a PS4 lol so i'd have to buy an XBOXONE just to play this game. worth it? or should I just wait for Gran Turismo?

I agree with Forza 5 being shit. How are you liking 6 in comparison to 4?

Forza 6 is amazing. Grip physics are vastly improved. The last Forza I played was 3 so this is a major jump for me. That being said the cockpit view is amazing now compared to demos of 4 and 5 I played. Racing in the rain is very intense and even the hydroplane physics are impressive (not fun at times!). I'd say this game is worth checking out.

i was obsessed with Sonic the hedgehog on dreamcast

there is an old school gaming store near me they sell old systems, tempted to go pick up a N64 from them, that was my favorite system

At least this time the level cap is going up 6 levels instead of just 2 and its based on XP again not gear. There is also a new subclass for each class. This 1 sounds like the first true expansion so that's why I'm giving it a shot.

PM me if you want info about the Taken King, I can help with anything you need

I have multiple sonic games for dreamcast including Sonic Adventure (yes the first one!) Some sonic rip off of mario party, I even have hydro thunder that still works for my dreamcast.

N64 I still have and still play Banjo Kazooe still my favorite game. Have all the classics too; mario kart 64, super smash bros, pokemon stadium, hey you pikachu!, 007, super mario 64, zelda, yoshie's story, star fox 64, diddy kong racing, star wars pod racing, mario party (yes the first one.), etc. I'm prob missing some but this is some of my favs off the top of my head.

I'm liking it. Although FM3 is my all time favorite. I really, REALLY, miss Maple Valley, Fujimi Kaido, and Camino Viejo. Those were awesome tracks. The physics are great and I've learned to basically modify my cars with only weight reduction and tire grip haha.

But, my biggest beef isn't with the core game. It's the small details; some of which were in GT6. Shifting! Show the paddles and the knob actually MOVING! Another thing is the authenticity of the modifications. There are 4 PD SC on the market for our cars. And it's not even an option in the game! > another is tire width. It bugs me I can fit 255x45 tires on the stock wheels for our cars.

Building on that, it does annoy me how the engine swaps are very generic.

Also the body kits available are shit to say the least. For any car, not just the twins.

Anyway! That's all I'm hyper critical about. Driving in the rain is awesome and so it at night time through the nurburgring

Having all the Japanese tracks gone is literally the only reason I haven't bought it yet. All my favorite tracks: Fujimi, Motegei, Susuka, Tskuba, Maple Valley, Camino Viejo, and Positano are all gone. So I feel like I'll get bored way too quickly racing the boring ass, low technique circuits like the Burnese Alps.

On Forza 3 & 4, my old roommate and I were in the top 100 leaderboards for time attack on Fujimi Kaido old downhill. We broke the legendary 4 minute mark and ended up whittling our time down competing with each other for thousandths of a second, until one magical day in which I sat down and perfectly crushed the previous record by two seconds. Currently I'm reigning champ, and we were really hoping to could get back on the mountain to settle it in Forza 5, but with it missing we patiently waited for Forza 6, only to get screwed again.

I'm pretty bitter about it to be honest.

You must try box car racers! It's a race my friends and I created on Fujimi Kaido. You must have your assist set to manual with clutch. What you do is you all line up at the first hill on the full track of Fujimi Kaido. Everybody gives enough gas to get the car to roll forward just a little bit. Afterwards nobody is allowed to put the car into gear and must race this way. The momentum of the course gets the car eventually to speeds of ~60-70 mph. Obviously this tests your braking and cornering capabilities. If you brake too late you'll probably spin out disqualifying you from the race. If you brake too early and too much you'll start to lose all your momentum eventually slowing your car to a stand still!
