    I played the demo and I found Forza 2 to be more enjoyable.

    Look fantastic, but the handling is way too sluggish with the Logitech wheel. I seem to recall a similar issue with XBox CMR 2005.

    I like it myself, the controls aren't perfect but other than I can't find many faults.

    Amazing graphics, thats for sure.

    I like the in-car camera views but, after playing Motorstorm it doesn't really impress me too much. I'll pass on Dirt

    I loved the Forza 2 demo, and hated this one. I'll play it for the achievements one day though.

    It's no Forza thats for sure. Personally i dont think it looks that great either, a bit slow, especially on the dirt buggy track with the 9 other cars.

    A 7/10 game one feels.

    I thought the demo got a bit choppy at times. I'm not sure exactly how to describe it. Maybe it was the frame rate or something. The other thing that bothered me were the noises from the car. Maybe the noises were really realistic or something, but they were also quite irritating. I've heard this game works with the Microsoft Force Feedback wheel. I'd love to try both the Forza demo and the Dirt demo with that wheel, but I don't feel like shelling out $130 for it. Supposedly the price of the wheel dropped $20 bucks.

    To me, this game is a definite rent, but other than that, I'm not sure.

    I enjoy DiRT 100x more then Motorstorm, thats for sure. Controls werent the greatest, but it was still an enjoyable experience on my projector, and Ill definately consider picking the game up if I can get it for less then 60.
