Came out today... played the demo and thought it was pretty good as far as arcade style rally games go...with the added difference of Ken Block narrating the game and being able to drive his subaru in a similar, less skilled way than he does.. :D

Anyway, tis at home waiting for me thanks to play.com so will be on that tonight...

Anyone else thought about getting it.. ?

Well it appears im the only geek on here then.. :p

Result is fantastic.. played it on my racing seat for a while and its pretty darn good. The fact that you can fine tune the car unlike the previous one helps alot.. Graphics are brilliant too...

(ill leave now)

How'd you manage to play this already i think its out friday this week. Not worth a purchase then, ive been in two minds about it for a while, might wait till its a bit cheaper if its not great.. No demo though for the ps3 which doesnt help.

I have a friend of a friend in a shop lol,it plays ok to be fair,just the handling,defo not like forza 2.
But the sounds are ace,crank up the volume on the home cinama system.

Yeah I've heard it is arcadey but IGN said the tyre noises, the effects in the car are like no other racing game.

Might be tempted to buy it though and then trade it when Forza 3 is out at the end of october.
