[Official] Forza 3


Recommended Posts

  • 3 weeks later...

Rather than make a new topic, I figured I'd revive this one and ask:

Does anyone still play this? :(

I just got it for my birthday on the 17th, and I'm wondering if I could find some people to play with eventually.

I'm on Season 2, A Class cars right now. I don't think I've lost any races, I've come close in the last few races against an Audi.. damn thing comes out of nowhere. :(

LOVING the game more than Forza 2.

Havent been on in a while so couldn't post this but why is it some cars don't go as fast as if it was real life, one example, Ford Focus rs Turbo, real life it goes 163mph, in Forza 3 it only goes around 146mph... (without upgrades tho)

I havent bought any of the DLC for the game because I hate the fact you have to use in game credits to buy cars you just bought for real money. The only thing I bought for Forza 2 was the tracks they released.

Those are the ones I am looking forward to.

I've just lost everything on it, the game keeps telling me that the game data is invalid. I moved everything over from my old 360 when I got the new Slim one. Everything else works apart from this. It's stopping me from playing split screen too because that error keeps on coming up, even though I've moved my old saves away onto my memory stick and started again.

Still love this game. I don't care about GT5, nothign has ever come close to the first time I opened the game, grabbed an M3, and just drifted around Camino Viejo de Montserrat. Absolute favorite track, I play the Extreme Circuit. Anyone else.

That's where I usually take my new cars out for a test drive after I have upgraded them. :)

As for GT5, I rented it and the game is actually pretty good but it feels totally unfinished. Some of the tracks and cars look good but the sound design and the car sounds are horrible. My 2007 Mustang GT supcharged sounds like a Honda Civic with a supercharger, same goes for NASCAR. The best part about the game is photo mode :blush: The graphics are pretty flat, when you race in the cities its like the modeled a few boxes and textured them with pictures from a little $100 digital camera, looks great when you flying around at 150mph but when you slow down its like ewwwwwww :laugh: PGR3/4 looks better :yes:

Apparently not all cars made it into the pack.

Here is the final list:

* 1971 AMC Javelin-AMX

* 1973 BMW Motorsport 2002 Turbo

* 1970 Chevrolet El Camino SS 454

* 1971 De Tomaso Pantera

* 1982 DeLorean DMC-12

* 1987 Ford Sierra RS500 Cosworth

* 1990 1978 Saab 99 Turbo

* 1983 Volvo 242 Turbo Evolution

* 1957 Ferrari 250 California

I used to have a '73 AMC Javelin. Came with a 360 but I dropped a 401 in it... :cry: I miss her.

    • Good. I hope more people sue them for focusing on this worthless junk.
    • How about fire the guy who approved all the bad decisions? The guy who bought these studios in the first place? Oh wait, Satya is safe with his billions while the workers pay the price.
    • This had nothing to do with games. This is all about management wanting to squeeze as much money from Xbox to keep Microsoft's AI ambitions afloat. Someone has to make money to burn on AI.
    • GeekBook X16 Pro Intel Core Ultra 9 thin and light laptop gets a 17% discount by Steven Parker GEEKOM is back with a 17% discount on its top-of-the-range X16 Pro laptop. You may remember that we reviewed the X14 Pro back in February, which marked GEEKOM's debut into the ultrathin laptop segment. You can view the full specs below. GEEKOM X16 Pro Model NX14CM Dimensions 322.58 × 213.36 × 5.8 mm (12.7"L x 8.4"W x 0.23"T) Weight 997 g / 2.2 lbs Material Unibody Magnesium Alloy CPU Intel Ultra 5 125H (14C/18T, 24MB L3, 2.3-5.1 GHz, TDP 20W) Intel Ultra 9 185H (16C/22T, 24MB L3, 2.3-4.5 GHz, TDP 35W) Graphics Intel Arc graphics 8 Xe-cores @ 2350MHz 1024 shading units/stream processors (128 CUs), 8 Raytracing Cores, 64 texture mapping units, and 32 ROPs NPU Intel AI Boost, 11 TOPS / Up to 33 TOPS (CPU+NPU+GPU) Memory 32GB Dual-channel LPDDR5x 7467 MT/s Micron SODIMM Storage 1 x M.2 2280 PCIe Gen 4x4, Wodposit 1TB, 2 TB Display 16.0" IPS LCD, 2560 × 1600 (16:10) 100% sRGB, 120Hz Refresh Rate Camera 2MP 1080P 1 × Light sensor in camera module 1 × LED indicator in the camera module Windows Hello Support: No Mic 2 x Digital Mics integrated in the camera module Speakers 2 x 3813 (4Ω×2W) built in body Audio Codec: ALC269QN-VC3-GR Certificate: DTS: X Ultra Operating System Windows 11 Pro 25H2 Bluetooth Bluetooth 5.4 Wireless LAN MediaTek MT7922 M.2 Wi-Fi 6E LAN card Left I/O ports 1 x HDMI 2.0 2 x USB4 (40 Gbps) Right I/O ports 1 x USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A (5 Gbps) 1 x 3.5 mm Audio jack 1 x Camera Privacy Shutter Keyboard 78Key 1.2±0.2mm / Height 3.5±0.2mm (with backlight) White LED light in Caps Lock and Fn key Language: Default US Touch Pad Dimension: 120 x 71mm Material: Mylar Position: Middle Interface: I2C, Dualpoint button Dock Input port: 1 x Type-C 2 x USB 3.0, 1 x RJ45 1 x PD 1 x HDMI (Bio) Security Fingerprint sensor (in the power button) SD Card slot No Kensington Lock No Battery 77Wh (Input 20V, 3.25A) Power 65W PD GaN Fast Charge, USB-C to USB-C Warranty 2 years (Early Bird 1+1 Years) Deal price $1119.67 The X16 Pro is powered by the Intel Ultra 9 185H, which was released in Q4 2023 and is a 14th Gen Meteor Lake CPU designed for laptop/mobile using the Intel 4 architecture based on a 7nm process. The Ultra 9 185H features 16 cores and 22 threads running at up to 5.1 GHz. It also includes a dedicated NPU utilizing Intel AI Boost at 11 TOPS. On the graphics front, the 185H includes the still fairly capable ARC Graphics (not to be confused with the newer ARC 140T) integrated GPU with a max GPU frequency of 2350 MHz across 8 Xe-cores. It has been said that the iGPU is equivalent to the NVIDIA GeForce 3050 and GTX 1650 in gaming and synthetic benchmarks. Other highlights include an AMOLED display, LPDDR5x memory at 7467 MT/s, WiFi 6E, Bluetooth 5.4, and a fingerprint sensor built into the power button. AI PC? Although the Intel Core Ultra 9 185H includes a dedicated NPU, it's only 11 TOPS; therefore, it does not qualify as a Copilot+ PC. However, it can reach up to 33 TOPS with a combination of NPU, CPU, and GPU. As I said, although we only reviewed the X14 Pro, the unboxing is the same for the X16 Pro, which I noted in my review. The packaging is quite a nice experience. The outer box houses the X16 Pro box with a small compartment that contains the 5-in-1 Dock ($40 value), which appears to be an "Early Bird" inclusion. Upon removing the box cover, the X16 Pro is revealed sitting in a cardboard compartment with two small booklets of documentation. To the left of the X16 Pro are two cardboard compartments containing the 65W charger and Type-C USB cable. What’s In The Box 1 x GEEKOM X16 Pro Ultra-thin Laptop 1 x Type-C to Type-C cable 1.8M 1 x 65W GaN PD Fast Charger 1 x Warranty Card 1 x Thank You Card 1 x User Guide All products sold by GEEKOM receive a 3-year free Warranty from the date you receive the product. If needed, you can RMA or return locally relative to your region (the U.S. has a U.S. warehouse, mainland E.U. has a German warehouse).
