IGN reviews don't really matter here, so we'll see what DiRT'll get.

Why are you comparing the two, if you own a 360, just rent both and buy the one you like better

Ever since morons have been making threads that say "DIRT OR FORZA?" or "forza2 vs dirt"

I really don't care b/c i probably wont get dirt, it's just for those who wanted to compare. I like to costomize my cars and forza i know does it better than dirt. Although i haven't played dirt, it looks like fun(and pretty)

Well, aside from you contradicting yourself by saying online racing doesn't suck and then saying DiRT sucks online (how do you know?)... I HAVE actually played PGR3 online and, if the entire field makes it pass the first turn (which it usually doesn't), you've got to contend with people bashing into you and spinning you out. The only enjoyable online racing experience I ever had was when Sierra was making the NASCAR games... THAT was racing.

So racing with actual people sucks? Ummmm, ok

Also,is this a competition? People are so imcredibly odd sometime. If 360 owners are lucky Forza, Dirt, Pro Street, and Paradise will all turn out amazing. Gamers today are so confusing.

All I know is this: Forza 2 came out first, and it owns, so I couldn't care less what DiRT scores.

Yes, because most people can't seem to race online, they like to play bumper cars.

Yeah, I could care less about the comparisons between the two since they are completely different racing games.

I tend to agree. It's very hard to find a match that is legit to where everyone will race rather clean. Sure, you might get bumped here and there but that's racing. What I mean, there are a lot of games out there to where people just crash into another car just because it gives them a good laugh.

All I know is that demo of DiRT on Xbox Live made me cream my jeans! If the online was non existant I wouldn't care because the single player is insane! I like racing games but this is the first racing game I have LOVED!!! It's also the first racing game where I have preferred the inside view to the 3rd person view. Easily the funnest racing game I have ever played. I'm picking it up for sure without question!

I think they knocked the online because you don't actually race with other people at the same time, but then again, that's how real rally racing is done.

Well lets hope Forza is nothing like the demo on the xbox, as it is like watching paint dry.

I would rather play Project Gotham, Forza is all gloss and precision but that does not make an exciting game, like F1 on the PS3, looks amazing and a really precise simbut just goes to show up how dull the real thing is.

Gotta say I do not play racing games online as they seem to attract drunk meat heads like no other type of online game does.

like IGN say, it doesnt seem to control right (in the demo anyway) not like previous incarnations, which were excellent.

I think forza 2 should only allow you to play online with Cars you've earned or bought in Single Player. And whatever damage you do is cumultive. So if someone is ramming people, they do thousands of dollars of damage to their car and they will to pay to repair it, and because its online, there is no way to reload an old save. This would help prevent some of the bumper car racing people do. Also if you cause a serious collision, your car should be written off and if YOU caused the collision, you don't get it replaced and the victim gets a new car replacement free of charge, brand new. I think this kind of element as an option would be fun, adds real world risk to racing.
