Planet 9

**K-Man S** · #1 05-31-2007, 01:56 AM

Hey I finally got the game and had some time to play. I captured a couple of photos and have attached them. The first is of my first car I took racing to earn enough money to buy the game (took about 90 minutes, maybe less had I not blown some money on tuning the VW).

Got the Cayman and I added the AWE exhaust and K&N intake (no EVO sorry) and I think someone screwed up the physics on this car as the back end is always coming around as if it were a 911. I'll try stickier tires but it was a pain to get the car under 2 mins at the longer Laguna Seca track due to lack of control.

Oh well practice practice practice!

That is a weird shade of yellow. Looks like mustard yellow that you tend to see on Z350s

It is the lighting on that track I think, here is another shot attached. I took another pic of my newly modified Cayman S but for some reason it doesn't seem to have uploaded to the web...

The detail is amazing, especially the headlamps

**K-Man S** · #5 05-31-2007, 06:13 AM

Yeah and that last pic is out of focus because I took it with the driving wheel not the regular controller and the driving wheel lacks some of the controls of the regular controller for photo manipulation I accidentally over adjusted the focus...

I'm loving this game so far. I'll have to post pics of my Cayman as well. Nothing too special. Just black with some TechArt Formula's. (Wish they had them in black)

I have all of the upgrades on my Cayman. It is now all wheel drive with the m96? motor. It really blasts around the track.

What suspension settings are you using? I find the car oversteers way to easily...

I just got the game 2 days ago... amazing!!

Here's my Cayman - Sharkwerks style...
I actually spend twice as much time painting my cars than actually racing!

If I could only find an Xbox 360 Elite somewhere!!!

I saw 3 or 4 of them at Target near me last week, I'm sure you can order them online somewhere can't you??? I'd like them to release the HDMI capable separately, I don't care about the larger HD mine isn't full.

Nice work, I've got someone helping me with mine and will post pics when done. You should let Sharkey know you are advertising for him!

Hmmm maybe I could get sponsors to pony up $$$ to have my car wear their graphics in the game? Hey now there's a money making idea!

I love this game

my cayman is black with a 750hp gt3 motor in it, and weights in at 2100 lbs. And still got room for more power, maybe close to 900hp

**K-Man S** · #13 06-05-2007, 05:36 PM

A little something I am working on...

For those of you with the game, how many are using the MS wireless wheel, and what are your thoughts on it with this game...

Thanks.

So far the game is great, the sound on most cars is really realistic, the graphics is really the only thing that they could have made better

I played a demo of gran turismo for playstation 3 and that just kills this game in graphics. But no car damage, so forza is still probably going to be a better game. And as for the wheel I have never tried it but I'm pretty sure I would'nt like it, if it would be able to some how give you feed back when you drive it would be good, but thats probably impossible

It is a force feeback wheel and overall it is very good, like the real thing? no, but probably the best of the wheels out there...

I got the game on Monday but haven't had a chance to really play it too much yet.
I had the wheel for the PS2 and I'm thinking about picking up the wheel for the 360.
The wheel for the PS2 was great and I can only imagine that this is better and the price is right.

The price of the wheel did just drop to what $129 now?

Comin'atcha!

The wheel is nice. It definitely lets you know when you've dropped a tire off the tarmac.
