This thread has been linked to the game 'Forza Motorsport 2'.
I am new to this site, and I'm looking advice, I am looking for the best way to get familiar with the Nurburgring before I travel there next year, I was told that I should buy an Xbox 360 and get the game “Forza Motorsport 2”, has any one played this game and been on the track I want to learn? Or is it worth it?
Forza 2 £9.74 new (bundle copy) @ thegamecollection.net
Or its £7.99 pre-owned at GAME & Gamestation.
Its a reasonably steep learning curve but once you get the hang of it its a really good racing game (similar to Gran Turismo).Worth checking out at those prices IMO.
Forgot to mention I have driven around the Silverstone National circuit and the game is actually pretty accurate.Lines and braking points etc. were pretty much as they are in the game.

Hi, and welcome to the site. Have a look around the General Chat area and say hi in the Welcome forum as well so everyone can get to know you.
Forza 2 is a great game in it's own right, you can probably get a good idea of the track on that, but I'm sure it won't be quite like the real thing. At least it gives you a good indication of corners.
I hear that a few of the F1 drivers do the same (or did) with the Sony Formula 1 games. Obviously it's a bit out of date now as they have released one for the last few years, but someone else has picked up the licence for that, so hopefully we'll see a good F1 game soon.
Anyway, Forza 2 should be around £5-£10, don't pay more than that for it.
