Advantages So realistic, addictive
Disadvantages Long loading times, Xbox Arcade owners do not get the full benefits

Introduction Forza Motorsport 3 (known as Forza from this point onwards) was one of the most eagerly awaited titles to hit the Xbox 360 in 2009. Its predecessor, Forza 2 was released in 2007 and was acclaimed for being the most realistic racing game on any console due to its precise physics, collisions and general handling of the cars. Some people didn’t think that it was possible to improve on what already seemed like perfection but developer, Turn 10 were determined to give it a go. Forza 3 was first previewed at the E3 video game conference in mid 2009. First impressions were that the ... more

Advantages Over 400 authentic cars, beautiful graphics and some fantastic sound effects!
Disadvantages Loading screens are a little long.

FORZA MOTORSPORT 3 Forza Motorsport 3 is a car racing game with authentic cars and tracks. It is one of the best car racing games ever made and one of the biggest. Forza Motorsport 3 was developed by Turn 10 Studios and published by Microsoft Game Studios. The game is an Xbox 360 exclusive and not available on any other system. Forza Motorsport 3 doesn't feature a story and is only based on Season Play. This is the first Forza Motorsport to feature a calendar system instead of normal tournaments or cups. Forza Motorsport 3 is also the first car game I can remember being 2 discs. Disc 2 of the ... more

Forza Motorsport 3 - Seems to Last Forever 04/02/2013

User recommends the product

Advantages Good Graphics, Extraordinary Longevity, Adjustable Difficulty
Disadvantages Repetitive, Nothing to Distinguish it from the Average Racer

Racing games have been around since the start of computer and console gaming, with the exception of very first consoles and computers, every major console has had its share of racing games, they seem to be the staple of the gaming industry as someone somewhere will always buy them, myself being a prime example, I am a sucker for racing games, and have had numerous on every console I’ve owned, so I’d make myself a subject matter expert. The Forza franchise has been around since May 2005 and is been created since then by Turn 10 Studios, a studio owned by Microsoft and dedicated in creating the ... more

Advantages Incredible career mode and graphics
Disadvantages Bad multiplayer lowering it down to 4*

I bought Forza Motorsport 3 a few days its release in 2009, and right from the beginning I could tell I would be hooked on the game for the weeks and months which followed. You see Forza in many ways took me back to my childhood of playing racing games on the early play stations, it reminded me of the old Grand Turismo's and perhaps that's why I liked it so much. -BASIC GAME-PLAY- When you're actually in a race, in the game and playing, Forza is set out much like many other racing games. The controls are similar, the views (inside and outside the cockpit and at different angles) are similar ... more

Advantages Brilliant graphics, Amazing Solo gameplay, Exceptionally real
Disadvantages Online not as good as Forza 2, Realism toned down.

Forza Motorsport is a video racing game for the xbox 360 which turned a lot of heads when it was released in may 2005. It displayed amazing simulative characteristics and gave the player a real sensation while driving the car. It now has forza motorposrt 2 and 3 in the series. Forza motorsport 2 took the front seat and the spotlight when it was released as it was an improvement to the first game in every way. There were more cars, more tracks, better graphics, more realistic, better gameplay and better online experience alltogether. what was special about this game was that the online gameplay ... more

Forza 3 - The ultimate racing game for Xbox 360 27/10/2010

User recommends the product

Advantages Breathtaking graphics, excellent gameplay, best racing game on Xbox 360
Disadvantages none

I am a fan of racing games and have been for a long time. I saw Forza 3 being previewed in an Xbox 360 magazine and immediately planned to purchase the game. I did purchase it, for a very good £30 and included in the case is a code for downloadable content. The game comes on two discs, one is to play the game and the other is to install the majority of the tracks and cars on the system. Clearly the game is too big to fit on one disc and the installed content takes up 2.3 GB of space. It is optional to install it, but there will be hardly any tracks or cars in the game, so it's well worth the ... more
