However that was just the demo so i'll let you cats decide how you like the final version. I did however pickup Mercenaries last night....all I can say is DAMN!

I dont think Most of us are thinking that at all , im more excited for a new fresh party game i can join in with.

Reports from people that have played the game are stellar. I think this game will be far from a flop.

I'm just worried that I'm jonesing for the game so badly, and so many other people are too, that it might fall flat on its face. I hope not, but TOCA 2's wonderful handling model will be tough to overcome.

GOD I hope people don't start jumping out of the windows to their death if the game doesn't measure up to all the hype it has received here.lol

I'm a bit worried about that too. I think it will be a great game, but alot of us are expecting that same feeling we got when we first put in Gran Tourismo 1 for PS1. I don't think we'll get that rush again since we've played so many great racing games since then.

Forza sure has a lot of stuff off the racetrack that will be fun, like tuning etc., but it's on-the-track that really matters. We were all damn spoiled with Toca 2, which is a console racing masterpiece on the racetrack.

personally, i've no reservations Forza will surpass the original GT (ps1) in the 'rush' category. Yeah, it was *the* game back then. But, for me F355 (DC), LeMans (DC), and TOCA 2 were much more impressive benchmarks ('wow factor') for their time. If Forza can eclipse TOCA 2, i will be very satisfied.

Although if it means two less forza threads, I'm all for it.
