all right everyone, I decided to make a Anandtech logo. I just thought of what every ATer likes and the answer is obviously cheesecake.

I've put it up in my storefront free of charge, so feel free to represent AnandTech on your car as you dominate the competition.

Mmmmm Cheesecake!!

Yeah, I'll admit as great as I thought my vinyl was I can't touch the cakey awesomeness...

Got jealous seeing Blort's vinyl's for FM3 and tried to re-create my FM2 Anandtech vinyl, doesn't look quite but it was a rushed job.

Awesome game man. Fujimi Kaido(sp?) is insane. Raced on another large 7 mile track. Don't remember the name but it was awesome too.

The Porsche 997 G2 is awesome and so is the Gallardo and the Audi R8.

I am very impressed with this game thus far. It just feels really good. I haven't gotten as much play time in as you guys, but I do have my 350z and I can run that thing all over the track just like in real life! What a great feeling!!

Methinks you mean the 997 GT2.

Hope T10 puts the VIP pack on the marketplace, I really want to use "my" GT3 RS!

Haven't had a chance to race that track, I was mightily impressed by Sedona as it is. I think for tonight's Forza 3 night we're going to have to hit as many of the new tracks as possible.

 

[Lotheron]

We did that last night as well. There are a couple small town rally tracks, was fun taking the Gallardo around it, even though it didn't look like the car it was afterwards! Theres also the drift track.

I might buy this but I have a burning question.

Is there a 2 player split screen mode?

I haven't even looked yet. I'd guess no though.

I would guess yes, as Forza 2 did. But I haven't looked either.

I'm almost 100% possitive there is. There was in Forza 2 and I'm sure I read yesterday that it was in Forza 3 also.

I read that split screen was there but systemlink wasn't.

Don't listen to them, they're all lying to you in the hope that you'll buy it and then be overly frusterated.

I love that cheesecrack

I expect royalties off of your profits!

You can share in 10% of the glory.

I also just put up the anandtech symbol too (minus cheesecake) so go ahead and use that in your design if you want.

10% of blortov glory is way more than any normal man can handle!

Yeah, I saw your AT symbol, looks pretty good. I made one as well, needs a few minor tweaks but it's not too bad.

I'm probably getting it anyways ... but can someone verify for me.

Thanks.

yes, there is 100% for sure splitscreen. you can even pick from the same garage now, so you don't have to have two seperate profiles to race custom cars against each other.

i have not yet verified whether there are split screen replays, though. i'm told there are not.

God, finally. That was such BS that you couldn't do that in Forza 2. I remember trying to get a game in with my brother and it was just impossible. All you could do to make things balanced was to race the exact same cars against each other, because he couldn't access my garage and pick one of my many A850s or B700s.

 

[brblx]

me and two buddies maintained three seperate profiles full of cars for split screen grudge matches. it was akward, but we made it worked.

helped that we kept it on a seperate hard drive that we didn't update, so we could do the money cheat.:evil:

Ya know, one thing that bums me out about FM3 is the lack of regions and level/game progress locked cars. I made 50%+ of my cash by selling region locked/level locked/progress locked cars in FM2. Heck, buy a Corvette C6.R for $325,000 and sell it for $400,000 easy, I'd buy 10 R2 cars that were locked and sell them on the AH.

I suck at painting, I suck at tuning, so racing is really the only method of making in game $$ that I have.

before i start doing that i already had a million prize money in FM2 and i was just about level 40. i dont think we will have a problem with money here. afterall we dont need all the cars, we just need to will our stable with favorite cars.

that and maybe you can resell porn car...
