Was great, just need something decent to mount it on, so much better than having it on your lap. A lot harder, but definitely a lot funner to play on. Especially on DiRT. inb4 Melta "racing games only good on pc" |

No problem with Arcade games as long as they don't pretend they are something they aren't. A well built racing game is only drivable with a wheel. Of course its hard to understand that when the yardstick is that junk MS wheel and a game like dirt. |

| 1216768 | 2011-07-14 11:45:00 | Forza 3 is an excellent game, worthy of its success, and imo a great arcade game presented in a real world manner. 1 and 2 were absolute crap in comparison to what was available at the time on the PC. I'm still going to buy Dirt 3, But it will be when its selling on trademe for pocket change. |
