I don't know about the times, but check this out my friend made me. My Racecar lookin pretty good.

 

i don't have an XBox.

 

I need to not be sick and get that game. I'm playing Forza II as we speak ha ha

 

Hopefully I will be getting an Xbox and this game over the holidays. Being a graphic designer I see this game as a way to get my name out there. Even if its for in game credits

 

We have the WMW graphics and even the car avail for anyone. Just go to Pokey78 storefront.

Anyone else that has built a MINI, should show it off.

 

Dumb question, but how do you do a screen-capture of XBox?

 

Never mind, my son explained it to me

 

I would still like to know

I may go pick this game up now.

 

I'll see if I can find out. Whoever already posted pix here will know though.

BTW do you folks have a favorite steeringwheel setup for online gaming? Is the Microsoft one pretty decent?

 

Don't know if it is compatible with X-Box but Logitech G-25 is fantastic. Most solid pedals i have ever felt. Nice wheel, sequential or standard H shifter. They also just released G-27, which is an updated G-25. The main difference is that G27 has a shift light.

However, both are pricey, although I think you can find the G25 for about $200 now.

 

I've had the MS Xbox 360 wheel for about 10 months. I think it works great. I bought it for Forza 2. I like the force feedback. If you don't use the power adapter, the wheel still vibrates when you go off road, clip curbing, etc. If you use the power adapter, the darn thing can easily shake itself out of your hands. Giving much more realistic feedback. I used it for a couple months before I discovered it needed the power adapter to give you the full force feedback. I've never used any of the other brands to compare. While the wheel is wireless, it has a phone type cord connection for the pedals. And the power brick plugs into the wheel also, so 2 cords total.

One thing that I haven't sorted out in the time I've had it, is mounting it to something. It sits on your lap good enough, but if you play for extended periods, you'll want to use it on a wheel stand. The Fanatec wheel stand is on my list for Christmas this year. I looked at the Playseats but I'm not willing to spend that much more.

 

Thanks GoalJNKY and Yelo. My son was pointing out the Logitec wheel and was pretty keen on it. Yelo, maybe Recaro will come out with an XBox seat. Unheated it you could probably get it for less than $1K :lol:

 

If you are just starting to get into this, and find yourself thinking about a dedicated gaming seat, here is a fantastic one I purchased last year: Obutto Ozone It's not cheap but you can leave your rig setup just the way you want so you can just drop into your seat, fire up the game and start driving. It works great with Logitech G25 wheel, shifter and pedals and the shifter can be mounted on either side

 

The Obutto seat looks great for the price. I could be wrong, but Logitech's G25 and newer G27 wheels aren't Xbox compatible.

 

Also there is this:

Also not cheap, but one of the better solutions for a dedicated set up.

 

I don't have an X Box, but Forza looks good. I'm just waiting for the full version of GT 5 to come out for PS3.
