I've got it, but I'm not that impressed. It's too arcadey for me. I'll have to trade it in for Forza 2.

PGr4 is an arcade style game mate, if you want a Gran Turismo type game then you wanna go for Forza 2 

PGR4 is still a cracking game though

Not really sure about splashing the cash to get this game. There are many cracking titles coming out, so I want to spend wisely and get the better ones first. There's Pro Evo 08 in a few days (monster game for online craic) which is a absolute must have. Then there is Mass Effect, COD 4, Mario Galaxy, Metroid Prime 3, and a few more I can't remember. So long as I get Pro Evo and Mario, I'll be as happy as a pig in sh*t.

Forza bored me to death by the time i'd got to level 50. Great game and all that..but its just - dull. Traded Bioshock and Gears in for this though...and so far, its a blast!

Loving the bikes btw 

pgr4 is a great game....orange box on the other hand the jury is out i find it sh!te at times but hard to put down 

i had 2 hours on pgr4 and might hit that again tonight

While im here...

Where is the Michelin Test track?

You can turn the different types of weather on but you so it in the 'against the clock' section, you can't just turn the weather on at will in the career mode and have to 'get what your given'.

Since I bought PGR4 I haven't had enough time to play it cos my cousin was here at the weekend then Monday night friends were over and last night I fell asleep, tonight I'll be watching the match from 19:30 but from 17:30 I'll be nailing some PGR4.

I'm finding it very different to PGR3, you have to think a lot more compared to PGR3 where you could just throw your car into corners without worrying.

Yeah ive sussed out the weather stuff...some of the effects are nice. Also, when you reach at least level 60 in career the Michelin Test track automatically unlocks.

Anyone think some of the achievements are pi55 easy to get. Ive got 9 in my first couple of hours! (I'll have to ask daxy about the rest!) - which are bound to be nigh on impossible after this easy start!! 

Overall, im fairly impressed by it. Having not played PGR2/3 i probably should be...Beats FM2 for fun hands down. But im not sure about these car packs...when exactly is the best time to take the plunge and spend your Kudos?

I have had the console 10 months and am a bit annoyed it has failed so quickly, it is kept well ventilated ect....

What are other peoples experiences? And also what is the standard of service you get from the repairer, I will be without a piece of kit that cost me a lot of money for three weeks - do they recompense you at all??

Two of my mates have sent them back, one got a new one within 10 days and the other had to wait about 5 weeks, but on saying that he sent it back just as they announced the warrenty extention and their was a massive backlog.
