    Re: Forza 5 - lap of Bathurst

    Mate, the XBOX 1 and Forza 5 are like an F Series GTS VS a VS GTS by comparison controller and feed back is really good, others will disagree, but I have had Forza 1 2 3 4 and now 5 .and the difference is very noticable... Only complaint is old model cars ie 2011 GTS instead of F Series and 2012 HRT car... Hopefully will have new GTS as DLC as time progress.... I actually took a day off just to play

    Thanks. I am used to using a wheel which feels more natural

    Lol, I took 4 days off work to play. So far only played Fifa 14 and Dead Rising 3. I will install Forza overnight and let it patch and download Killer Instinct too. Then tomorrow install Ryse and BF4.

    I was surprised at how light the Xbox One is compared to the 360.

    Re: Forza 5 - lap of Bathurst

    Yeah you are probably right, but I am used to controller... I have only done Bathurst in a V8 on free play and a GTR & M1 in campaign... I refuse to pay real money for digital cars ... except for the game itself that is

    Will have a decent crack at it this arvo B4 watching the V8's..... actually that's what else it needs - Phillip Island, Adelaide & SMP... don't like the chances though

    I remember the old days of Xbox ... Several mates basically mimicked the supercar series on TV by playing that Saturday night on the Xbox ... Full laps, tyres, fuel, pit stops etc .. Good times

    I found it understeers like a pig with the stock setup. I beat the stig earlier this morning at the top gear test track

    Its part of the career game. When you get the top gear test track in career mode, you will either do ten pin bowling or have a match race with the stig
