that sucks

anyway, if you need to know about xbox live, don't be worried bout it. I haven't had a single person get pissed with me in all my lethal paint tradings with them. It's really quite funny. Most everyone racing on the nurburgring are novice racers who've never raced the track before and spend 80% of the race in the grass. They just use xbox live to their advantage and get on the nurburgring without even having completed the game. sometimes you'll come across an expert, though.

all the money is well worth it

I think right now the starter kit is $60. renewing your subscription every year is $50. You have to have high-speed internet. One big feature of xbox live is you can actually talk to your competitors through headsets that plug right into the controller. Lag is seemingly non-exsitent, even if you run it through a router with 3 computers hooked up. You can make a buddy list of people you enjoy playing with, and it tells you if they're online, what game, and what race (if it's PGR2). I think that's all that I'm gonna be able to explain, but go to www.xbox.com/live to get way more info on it.

what's your record on the ring? can you beat 6:32? Times with the speed 12 don't count, because most people haven't finished the game (including me)

You could NOT have done 6:28 in an enzo! it looses majorly in the corners, straights, braking, EVERYTHING.

I'm a GT1 kinda guy. Not a clue what my best time was though. I'm about 25 or so short of a full load of platinums. There's a few that I just genuinely can't do (usually those cone challenges) but the rest I've tried once or twice and figured It doesn't matter. Particularly since premium content pack 1 (Paris) came with the Speed 12, completely irradicating a prize for finishing the platinums. Can I therefore assume that you guys haven't got either of the premium packs? You should get em, they're cool. For little more than the cost of a pint down the local, you get a whole new city and a stack of new cars. Pack 2 (Longbeach) comes with the Radical, M3 CSL, 288 GTO and the Ariel Atom, to name but a few.

The one thing that I think sweeney left out is that you do need a credit card to sign up for Xbox Live, probably not a problem if your folks will let you use theirs, but otherwise it could be a problem.

I'm pretty poor at the game, but I'd happily join you guys in either some online racing or some offline time trials. In fact I think it's a great idea. I'm not a fan of Nordschleife on multiplayer though. Bearing in mind the stupendous average speed on tha track, it's too easy to lose it in one corner and spend the next 15 minutes or so driving round on ya Jack Jones. I'd probably say the Edinburgh tracks are my favourites. Haven't played for some time though, might have to pick it up again tomorrow.

I could name hundreds of cars that should be in the next one, i can even name cars that should have made it into this one (i.e. Lambo Murcie/diablo, mercedes... lots of em, BMW E39, McLaren F1, other TVRs.... i could go on for a long while).

I know people already are, but just so its easyer to compare, could u guys just do thing...

Example:

"GT1 - 6:30"
"Speed 12 - 6:20"

or something like that. please with whip cream and strawberries on top :)

post whore! i can buy project gotham for like 50 bucks in EB, imconsidering it since iv finished NFSU like 347t892345972345 times... but i think ill wait for NFSU2 to come out, or maybe ill get burnout 3... i dunno im on PC anyways.

PsychoChimp22
09-23-2004, 10:12 PM
lol - I wouldnt buy Burnout 3, the burnout games always look cool on tv, and when u buy them, but after like a week they get SO booring. If you wre really considering an xbox game you should get gotham, as you can tell its pretty popular around here.

BTW: Im stuck on like race #85 or something on the comp right now, so i just gave up. (hate to sound like a looser)

i have pgr 2, and live but i lent pgr 2 to a friend :(

my best time for nurburgring is 6:12 in the speed12, and about 6:25 with the GT1. i dont like the enzo so i dont have a time for it, but in the CLK GTR i managed a 6:35 which i thought was alright. it loses majorly in the first half of the track, but in the second half with all the curvy bits, it completely owns everything. its even a bit faster than the speed12 over the second half, but unfortunately it gets pwned in the first half.

wow, did people use cheats to get the speed 12? I just barely won the gold medal round and am having a hell of a time getting platinums.
