IMS in Forza 4

[colognecapri]

I generally buy 1 game a year for the ps3 (college football), although the last 3 years, Call of Duty series has crept onto my list. I really just don't have much time for the mindless fun that is the ps3 but recently I had started wondering if there was a decent racing game out there. this might have sealed the deal. Thanks Muskie!

You aren't going to find Forza for PS3 as far as I know, its basically the XBox equivalent of Grand Turismo.

Hey guys how big are the race fields in Forza 4? Is it still that lame 8 car stuff or is it like Grand turismo or other games where you are in a FIELD of cars. that's always bugged me. I might go pick it up soon

Forza 4 has, like GT5, a limit of 16 cars per race. (Previous Forzas had a limit of 8, previous GT's only 6!)

Forza runs up to 16 people online. Most of the offline racing has 10 or 12 cars, When you start 6th though, you really don't deal with the back of the pack.

thought I would bring this back up as I just loaded rfactor back onto my pc (lots of fun oval racing the family on thanksgiving) and I was just going through my track packs and am still amazed by them, this is a list of the indy car and open wheel tracks I have, these are only the temporary tracks, I have a ton of ovals and permanent tracks as well. Not to mention the insane amount of cars, and yes they have indy cars, a couple of years if I remember, I ll have to wait till I get that far in loading everything.

Honestly I love Indy 500 Evolution. Might not be the most technical game in the world or the most pretty to look at, but the concept is amazing and putting together a Novi Special or driving an original Lotus at IMS is amazing. Plus it's a great window into some of the history or American open wheel racing for a younger generation of fans(myself included). Just wish they'd develop something along those lines for the modern era of Indycar.

I was just discussing this game on Sunday! I felt it was a GREAT concept...but I just couldn't get into it. I ran the first "challenge" where I had to try and get Jack Brabham's Cooper-Climax through some big accident in the back stretch and I got frustrated with the "arcade" feel of it and stopped playing. I haven't loaded it up since. I might give it another go. I never really explored if you could just pick a year and race without having to pass through silly driving challeneges.

I just loaded it up tonight (I500 Evolution) and it pushed an update. Anyone have any idea what it might be?
I searched google and couldn't find anything...but I did find this...
