Forza Horizon still has something nice to say about the 370

The "370Z" group may be carried over from Forza 4?? I know Shadoquad, XxChrisxX and others were in an OG group and another one at one point in time. But

I got a Fanatec wheel (CSR with 6 speed shifter) over the winter for Forza 4. It's pretty amazing and a completely different experience (read: better) than playing with a controller. Not sure if the Mad Catz is FFB or not, but the Fanatec is impressive.

As for the demo, I too instantly thought NFSU2. Although I loved that game back in the day, I'm undecided as to whether I'd want to fork out the cash for a more "arcadey" game. I was kinda hoping more of the F4 physics would carry over.

The physics seem the same to me. Maybe it is because I'm not as experienced with the Forza games as some, but I've not noticed any difference in physics between Forza 4 and Horizon.

It is definitely more arcadey.. but I feel like the Forza 4 and Horizon really compliment each other. Depending on your mood, you can get pretty much whatever experience you want. Up for a track day? Play Forza 4. Feel like doing something this forum frowns upon? Light up the streets on Horizon.

I wish Forza 4 have better wheels to pick from.

Anyone still enjoy playing Forza Horizon? Any good stuff?

The Fanatec wheels are fantastic. =]

I am taking a break from a 3 hour Horizon session .. going back in a sec. I'm working on earning the last wrist band.

I'm waiting on the PR Stunts.. going to teach myself to drift before doing those.

Fun game. Good compliment to Forza Motorsport 4.

The Fanatec wheel is pretty awesome. I don't have a rig set up for it and just got used to having it in my lap. It still works great. I would never go back to playing with a controller.

The mad catz I use is NOT FFB (that's why I'm upgrading)

Il probably cobble together a little rig from 2x4 s and my gaming chair once the wheel shows up. Until then, I like my entry level wheel better than a controller.

If you guys need a stand for your wheel, I suggest this one:

I had to widen the holes in the plate for the pedals to get the fanatec pedals to fit, but other than that it works great.

UGH! I just wish Microsoft and Logitech would get it together and support the G27. I have an awesome rig with my G27 but i can't use it for Forza

I mainly play iRacing in triple screens with

I thought you might have been. Still the sim force feedback wheels ARE pretty sweet. Lol

(The car in my parking spot at work is better though. Especially as it is as yet unavailable in game...)
