I play at *almost* full difficulty: I leave the ABS on. I don't have a steering wheel, and I find the brakes too difficult to modulate with the left trigger. Doesn't help that I have a tad bit of arthritis starting in my left index finger either...

Surprisingly enough, I have 0. I've only got Forza 2 and DiRT, both of which are rated E. I feel so... squeaky clean. :shock:

Wow, this is akin to taking out the radiator on your car because you wanted a new front bumper that looks cooler...

Shave it, do whatever, but put the bloody thing back in!!!

Ah thanks for your quick replies everyone!
I have another question, is there any way to get a monitor to do 1080p?

And, my monitor says i can change the resolution to 800x600 all the way to 2048x1536, but everything is really small, or stretched out if I do put it on 1280x720. SO how do I know what my current monitor resolution is capable of? Its pretty old so I think i still need to upgrade, just wondering why 2048x1536 was even an option

sp00ks222

All (modern) monitors, by nature, are progressive scan, so as long as the monitor can handle 1920x1080, it can do 1080p. The reason 1280x720 looks stretched is because it's a 16:9 ratio widescreen resolution, and standard (non-widescreen) monitors have a 4:3 viewing ratio.

if you like racing sims, go with Forza 2 - it has a a lengthy career mode and making your own custom paint job is amazing.

if you like shooting people, get GRAW 2 - fun single player, offers solid online co-op and the multiplayer is really deep

I Couldn't have said it better myself.

As far as Midway, I've only seen weak reviews, and haven't heard much about Bullet Witch - but having played neither I can't say yea or nay one way or another. I CAN say that if you like Racing games Forza 2 is a must-own.
