Glowing Red Rotors!!!



Just another fine feature of Forza 2 Motorsports on Xbox 360, yes they heat up and cool down over time glowing and fading respectively, a cool effect.

Forza2 does it for you automatically by transferring pics from the game to the Forza2 website and you download them from there to your PC, otherwise you have to get some software to scan your Xbox's hd and see if it can make sense of whatever format the images are in and transfer them across a network to your PC.

That is pretty slick. It almost makes me want to run out and get a game system!

If you have a fast computer I highly recommend the game GTR2. You will need to get a wheel and pedals as well but it has very realistic dynamics and is a blast. I think having played the game actually gave me a big advantage in my first DE. In order to be successful in the game you have to use appropriate braking, shifting, and accelerating techniques. You also can practice hitting the apex.
