Gaming: Forza 3 – Split screen with 2 Wheels

So I went out on Thursday Nov,26,2009 and picked up Forza 3 along with a official xbox 360 steering wheel.I have been playing Forza 2 for along time now with a controller and a wheel borrowed from a friend. So I beat most of forza 2’s single player using the controller which was fun but afterwords I tried out the wheel.The wheel was alright but for $99 + tax I didn’t fined it worth buying unless it would be used for multiple split screen like a arcade only at home. Forza 2 which had very basically split screen multilayer which wasn’t all there, yet still a blast against a friend.The Problem was only having one wheel, Always needing to share it and then there’s always the advantage or disadvantage of playing against your friend on a wheel while you use a controller.

So before forza 3 came out i had began looking for a used xbox 360 wheel,why used you might say? well buying a used xbox wheel will be about half the price and most people who buy a xbox wheel or any steering wheel either use it alot or barley at all, theirs usually no in between so you find one which have been barely used at all and you have just saved your self a bunch of money 🙂 congratulations. Now its your turn to either use it a little or a lot but at least you wont loss much money if you only use it a little this way :P. Now that we have 2 wheels it was time to Race!

-So away I went trying out the single player a little bit to see how good the wheel was I bought and to see how forza 3 was compared to forza 2.Lets just say Graphically it has improved which is nice to see and the tracks feel less smooth which makes it so much fun 😀 Everything seemed Great. It was Time to get into some great racing with a friend in forza 3 split screen oh i couldn’t wait since forza 2 was good and now we had 2 wheels :P.
So we First started out with F Cars only we spent about 1hr playing with only F cars, theirs just so many cars its ridiculous. when we moved on the E cars, There were even more cars The list of cars was never going to stop we were loving just this fact alone 🙂 we spend another hour just on E cars but we had keep changing tracks just to see what the courses would be like, lets just say there better then ever not just because theirs Soooo many to choose from the fact that they all look great but they also drive very realistically compaired to forza 2, Since before it very smooth tracks now there more bumps like I mention before which just adds alot of fun. this was as far as we had gotten before it was time to stop playing but this game has blown our minds we cant help but want to play it more, The split screen multiple this time around can have 2cpu player which is a nice feature which forza 2 really need.

In conclusion go take alook at the forza3 demo and what you see there will be what you get. Ill be busy playing forza 3 for along long long………. Time! see yea next time if i ever come back from forza 3 😉
