Hard to believe. But here me out. Xbox 360 uses low capcity DVD9, has expensive add-ons, and comes with a weaker processor. Xbox 360 also breaks way more often other consoles. So.... As much as Forza 3 improves over Forza 2, it only highlights Xbox 360 major weaknesses. Forza 3 will come with 2 discs and will require an install...so those with the cheap version of 360( the arcarde bundle) must pony up more money for an over-priced hard drive. Also, because of Xbox 360's weaker processor, Forza 3 will have a lot fewer cars in the race than GT5. For a kicker, though, cars in Forza do break pretty often, just like 360:) Interesting, no?

Still it beats bumper car physics.grand turismo driving physics.

I'll take Forza's A.I. artificial intelegence over gran turismo's 16 car racing anytime.

gran turismo 5 will have the same driving physics as this kids game.

Bumper car physics are fun.

Thankfully for weak 360 owners, it perform better in 90% of the games than the super powerfull PS3....

Maybe we just shouldnt talk about weakness and power when we dont have a clue of what we are talking about, right? :?

okay, that's like installing the second disc to get access to all weapons and levels in a FPS. doesn't really makes sense. if i am going to buy a racing game i want to have all cars and tracks i can get. it shouldn't therefor be additional.

And why should I care again?

I have a 120 GB HDD that I was lucky enough to grab for $40 so this is of no consequence to me. I'll be installing the entire game, plus the extra content, on my HDD.
