I think I'll be picking up the force feedback wheel soon. Anyone else get it yet?
So what do you think about Blue Dragon Jollipop? lol.........

And they review these: http://www.kontrolfreek.com/
"Recently Che gave me an odd-looking piece of plastic that snaps onto the Xbox 360 gamepad thumbstick head. This accessory for your accessory is meant to increase the controllable surface area of the thumbstick. Basically, it’s a better lever. While I "got" the theory immediately, I was skeptical about how effective it could really be.
"After using it for the better part of the afternoon, I’m convinced. While it’s no replacement for a good racing wheel, it’s a remarkable improvement over an unaltered thumbstick. I’m able to roll my thumb across the control and use the raised walls to manipulate the control much more precisely. It just feels natural. I’m always struck by how some of the most meaningful innovation is often the most low-tech improvements on an old idea.
"It’s a shame about the bright green color. The Xbox 360 controller is a nice piece of industrial design. Pardon the pun, but this thing sticks out like a sore thumb.
"Here’s the bottom line. This thing is cheap and small. If you don’t mind looking like a dork using it, it will make you gamepad racing experience much better and probably drop your lap times as well."
So there you have it folks. Turn 10's audio test lead and racing cockpit afficionado probably won't be trashing his setup any time soon, but this is pretty cool. Something to pick up for a stocking stuffer perhaps, or even for yourself if you're looking to improve your analog stick experience.

Some nice photomode shots of PGR3. I hope FM2 is able to capture the color and lighting of PGR3 because it looks very good.

That thumb attachment for the pad sounds interesting--I wonder if something simular would be good for increasing someones accuracy in a shooter? Oh no! That's another topic! ;P
...I really wish there were a cockpit cam in Forza 2 ;)
I do have a temp solution: in the videos they show a "rough" trail camera. Part of what makes PGR3's camera nice is the inertia and bumpiness. Games have done inertia for a while to a small degree, but getting a smoothly-rough trailing camera view and hood cam would be cook. Get a feel for the bumps on the track and such.

Forza Forza Forza << back on top again!

EDIT: They are all amazing, easily the most realistic looking game ever!
Photomode, but impressive!!! This is what I am expecting from PGR4 :P The lighting and color are just outstanding.

I doubt the 360 could pull graphics like that off in game, not even it's dreams.

That's how PGR3 looks minus the massive AA and somewhat weird lighting.

Jolli didn't you say that increasing a games image quality didn't make it look much better--cause that's the only significant difference between photomode and in game PGR3. IQ makes a big difference!
So basically what's helping out it's the AA and perhaps the tweaked lighting, but that's also done with real life pictures. All the models and textures are the same.

Or a 1080p DLP projector without wobulation.
For the mean time SD will do.

It's odd because i see the difference in PC games more than i do on 360 games. (example 480 and 768 on a PC is a noticable difference)
But as i said before most 360 games are native 720p and scaled to 480p, which probably makes some difference.

The PGR3 team were up against some hefty limitations and a tight schedule though. They already waxed lyrical about what they could do given the time to go back and re do the engine as it launched. I'm sure it'll look great.
Forza 2 needs to impress also or they'll be overwhelmed by the PGR4 team. I prefer the latter but I'm a sketchy driver :D
