Richie is already having hot spots in his pants.

Definitely hot. Although while saying that, I was really liking Forza 2 while Richie was playing it while he was out here. I really like the upgrade system and car select. I really don't care too much about riding around in Ferrari's. I'd take a Skyline over one anyday.

Yeah, that's my one beef with PGR currently: No 'normal' cars. PGR2 had several classes of cars dedicated to Type R's and WRX's, but now it's, "No cars that can't go 170 MPH or faster." Sounds great on paper, and makes for some prestigious car lists, but eventually you get fed up with the Lambo's and Ferrari's.

But there is a lot of new shit going into PGR4, like active weather conditions (conditions change during the race). That means a lot to a guy who treats icy roads as the reason not to stay inside.

Ah...Icy roads...I remember when 1 of my friends hit his handbrake when the road was icy going around the last turn to my house. Did a full 180 and had to go an extra 5 blocks to take me home...hehe.

I won't even begin to go through the shit that I've encountered in the passenger seat of Mr. Richie's vehicle, and his parents vehicles, and a few other people vehicles...without...permission.

Good times.

I'll take the 5th on this one.

I hear some of my friends do some crazy shit out in the parking lot at Stuckey's sometimes. From what I heard, people get run over out there. Quite frequently. Too frequently... and fire gets involved sometimes... Damn, I need to get out there some time to see what they've been doing.

Also had some great times last winter/year.

Richie taught me how to drift, or erm at least tried.

to defend Richie, he was tame when i was over there. He didn't even know he was hydroplaning like he thought his car was a transformer

Didn't want to start a new thread for this, but has anyone checked out Dirt or Forza 2? Both look nice.

I was gonna get the Dirt demo off Live before the seXbox passed away.

But Forza 2 was brilliant. To be honest, it's a bit like what Max Payne 2 was to Max Payne: A bit more of the same. But that's OK, because everything that sucked about the original is fixed, and now there's much better graphics and online play.

I played the DiRT demo. Really nice, fun as hell. Reminds me of a next-gen Rallisport Challenge game. It has a lot of Rallisport behind it. So, if you like that series then you might want to go buy DiRT NOW.
