Thanks for the feedback, man. <BR> <BR>V-Rally 3 is pretty lousy with the Controller S for the Xbox for pretty much the same reasons you mentioned for the PS2. The cars are just too "whippy" in their handling. There just isn´t enough of a gradual feel to the sliding, especially on gravel. You´re eit...

NoJ:
<BR>
<BR>I´ll give these a whirl, too!
<BR>
<BR>Thanks,

Thanks, Sport! Sounds like you´re a better player than me, but I´ll try these settings and adjust to compensate for my undisciplined hitting habits. <IMG SRC="images/forum/icons/icon_smile.gif">

Randy: <BR> <BR>Do you mean bounce around after collisions or bounce due to excessive suspension travel? <BR> <BR>The former is true -- just as it is in every console racing game, including the mighty, overrated Gran Turismo 3. Sorry, but the original Gran Turismo still is the toughest in the series...

Cool.
<BR>
<BR>P.S. to everyone: Someone else will need to host April 14. I´m on vacation that week.

Randy: <BR> <BR>Just because I´m the host doesn´t mean I´m good. In fact, it´s a running joke in the Poker Night that Neck and I are the largest moving targets. <BR> <BR>But I´m also not making any pre-match excuses about PC vs. console, etc., etc., either. I know I suck at this game on any system ....

Good fun, as always, fellas. We´ll do it next week.

By the way, Randy, when you are dropped with one shot from mega long range, that´s Spooky and his infamous sniper rifle.
<BR>
<BR>The guy is legendary for taking six to 10 shots in a 15-minute session and dropping someone with every damn shot.

Oh, then I´ll definitely shoot you. That´s still a bad memory, man! <IMG SRC="images/forum/icons/icon_smile.gif">

Randy:
<BR>
<BR>Hope you´ll be there, man! I´ll imagine you´re the ghost of Bill Stokkan, Andy Craig and Joe Heitzler and cap your ass! <IMG SRC="images/forum/icons/icon_smile.gif">

Sport:
<BR>
<BR>Thanks for the sliders offer. Better yet, why don´t you make a new post in here so others can try and hopefully benefit from your experience?
<BR>
<BR>Thanks,

Welcome, Mix. Welcome, Teal.

Yep, Warrick is a mad dunker for such a skinny dude.

Feel free to join us. Post in here with your Xbox Live Gamertag, and I´ll add you to my Friends list if you´re n...

Sport: <BR> <BR>I can´t find a video store in my area that rents WSB 2K3, even Blockbuster! So I caved in and bought it today. <BR> <BR>Only got in one game at the default levels, but the initial impressions are positive. <BR> <BR>I´ll play some more games and let you know what I think. <BR> <BR>Tak...

Web: <BR> <BR>Actually, I think gamefaqs.com is one of the hidden gems of the Web. <BR> <BR>You can find reviews -- some of which are quite good, FAQs, codes and fairly intelligent boards on just about every game back to the Atari 2600 days. <BR> <BR>It´s one of those sites I neglected during my SR ...

<BR>Every time I play World Racing, I find myself looking at the screen and singing the David Cassidy classic from "The Partridge Family," "Hey, I Think I Love You." <IMG SRC="images/forum/icons/icon_smile.gif">

<BR>Hell yes, I´m digging this game!

Boys: <BR> <BR>I found yet another FAQ for World Racing, this addressing one of the few flaws of the game, the ridiculously unintuitive menus and interface. <BR> <BR>Check it out: <BR> <BR>http://forums.teamxbox.com/showthread.php?s=1a670e489ad2eec6f98edcd346b0b099&threadid=186267 <BR> <BR>Take care...

Randy: <BR> <BR>I´ll agree with you on the lack of wheel support for the Xbox. I don´t play with a wheel, but wheel support should be MUCH better. <BR> <BR>Still, if you can drive, you can drive: I don´t care if you have a gamepad, wheel or Pina Colada umbrella as a joystick in your hand to control ...

Randy: <BR> <BR>What are your complaints about the PS2 version?
