Now only if they would have built a better racing wheel for the xbox... I guess I will have to wait for GT5 then buy my PS3... Doesn anyone know if you can use 2 G25 on one ps3??? I have 2 of them should It would be cool to race side by side with wheels... And wow those interior views are HOT!!!!

They have youtube videos of that one and the G25 beside it, No comparison... The forza wheel is built with crap plastic, no 900 degree steering, six speed isnt as smooth as g25... and lots more, did I mention it cost just as much as the G25.. They need to make the same exact replica for the xbox or make one for both. Id sure pay $500 for a quality built racing wheel... Hell I paid $250 for the G25 and its well worth the money...

i think GT5 does work with 2 wheels (dont quote me), but it's not that fun since when you're doing 2 player mode there's no 1st person/cabin view.

I'm just crossing my fingers that a G27 will come out by then (i really hope they have e-brakes and bluetooth connectivity by then )

For some reason I even preferred GT4 over Forza 2. Something about Forza just doesn't feel right to me *shrug*

Forza 2 is the only game I actually play on my xbox 360.
Can't wait for this new one. Now if only my xbox wouldn't freeze every 5-10 minutes of playing.
Piece of junk.....

Sounds like you could use a xbox mod.. Updated firmware is one of many fixes for freezing and rrod

Well mine is up to date with latest patch. But it is completely stock, never been modded.
Although it is a refurbished one from microsoft after my 2nd rrod.

sorry to be a little bit off topic, but does it mean that I should stay away from buying used 360 on CL?

Let just say they arent built like ferrari's... The chances of a modded one freezing or rrod over a standard is lower... If your modded xbox ever rrod you can just get it reflashed and its all fixed...

Delays on GT games are EPIC, and Prologue did nothing to make me look forward to GT5.
