But I did just get PGR4 and that rocks, weather and effects are awesome

But since playing PRG4 I've been getting red lights, so glad I did not open this console up , may have to ring Micro$haft and get a new one!

I would only have a PS3 for GT as that's always been a good game from day1 on PS1.

I just bought a Wii to go with my lonely PS3. Can't believe they are going for £270 on ebay!! It did take me a lot of ringing around to find though, only one i could find in Hampshire!

A GT5 prologue demo is heading to the ps3 on the 20th oct free on the Playstation online store.
Its probably a single player demo but it,ll give us a taste of the power of the ps3.

So in a way its a demo of a demo.

Take the graphical test and pick the game pic from the real pic

I too had the Xbox / PS3 choice to make.
Xbox and Halo3 won the day, thank goodness.

My question is, I bought PGR 3, for a tener and was wondering if it's worth shelling out 40 notes for PGR 4, is it really that much different ?

I haven't played PGR3.

I started the career in PGR4 and with either a Sierre RS500 or an Integrale (other choices, but these are best two) and progress to professional, clocking up some drifts and once unlock the next set of cars, its freekin awesome! Got loads and loads to progress through yet ofcause, im only at the tip of the iceberg.

Someone told me it is arcade like, well I think it is quite well simulated now im playing it. Its just so addictive!

Then you can see the drivers hands steering and changing gear, cockpit view and the dashboard is how it should look, all the dials working. The in photo mode, thats really cool.

Just been playing Halo3 for ages, now then, I think I am bruised. Feels like ive been running around with a gun getting ten shades of mercury blasted out of me.. I need to chill for an hour otherwise im not going to sleep tonight for adrenalin.

And im still awaiting for Forza2 to arrive - anyone played that?

Forza 2 is great Chris, I really rate it, more like a racing sim than out and out arcade racer like PGR.

PGR3 was great, but PGR4 has the detail like weather and now bikes, weather affects the game so much, it gets quite hard.

I only have one problem now, since getting pgr4 last friday I am now getting 3 red lights, and tonight the xbox is dead!

MS have extended the warrenty to 3 years to cover this as it a known fault, but means no PGR for me for 15+ days grrrr!!!

if anyone is online my tag is "jp racer069"

my mate sent his xbox back with £50 and hes getting an elite, he kept his hard drive form the first and so now hell have 2.

I have a 360 at my dads, its ace and games are ace too, the only game so far to dissapoint me has been sega rally, it seems the sega developers have taken a step back and maybe should stick to theyre own consoles, graphics are bad and cartoony and unrealistic like ridgeracer.

forza 2 is a must have, pgr4 looks mint and cnt wait for gta4. fair enough xboxs are louder but the games are ace and the processors *currently* do more thn ps3's.

ps3 is more powerful with i think 2 more processors, and so it has the potential but game developers cant get full hang of it. so at the moment xbox is winning.
i used to be a 100% sony fan boy owning PS, PS1, PS2, PS2 slimline, PSP, but xbox360 has turned the tables, too many anime games for ps3 and not enough great titles.
i personally have played both, ps3 is nice and sleek, it has a built in bluray player and wireless internet, for me it stops there, it is too much a PC and not a gaming console.

XBOX TAKES THE WIN

Essay over...

How far have you got on with Pgr4? Ive made it into the Hotshots ranking, and unlocked quite a few cars in career mode. Just finding it difficult to drift a bike in arcade mode so keep going for silver medals, i'll keep trying.

Halo3 rocks, just killed the Scarab tank thing, there are soooo many vehicles and crafts to ride! Its ace!

I want a more "on earth" shooter. Something like Far Cry, but I hear Far Cry sucks compared to the PC version.

Chris.

I picked up a cheap copy of Far Cry Instincts and it's really good. Just like the PC version so i'm happy as I got it thrown in when I bought the Xbox.

A really good shooter, that requires some thought is BioShock. I got it for the PC and it's very, very good. A bit wierd, but looks amazing. A pal who has it on PC and Xbox says the Xbox version is streets ahead, so that will be next on my list.

JP, is PGR4 really worth me spending another 40 quid, as I already have PGR3 ?

Cheers.

Andy, it is better, but is it worth £40 hmmm I'm not sure, but the weather and bikes are nice!

Chris I think I am 25 at the moment in the second season, my fav track is La Haute-Ville 82nd at the moment online with fastest lap of 39.05.

LOL Mat, I had a good week doing repairs on computers
