Forza Motorsport II for XBox 360
The thing about Forza is that it wasn't designed to have great graphics, it was designed for smoothness while driving. If I had to choose, I would rather have a smooth driving feeling than those great graphics with glitchy steering. If you feel the same way, you'll love this game as much as I do.
We're all familiar with the career of video game racing; buy a car, race it, win money, upgrade the car, win money, and repeat. Championship competitions were obviously more carefully thought out in this game. Gamers can choose weather they want an open race, or a race that is specific to a certain manufacturer. Players can choose very races that have a very wide range of cars, or a race that is so specific that it requires even a horsepower limitation.
Forza also lets you control the difficulty of each race. Players can control ABS, traction control, damage, tire wear and more. When playing on a more difficult setting, the rewards are higher. However, there isn't a huge difference in the reward money between a difficult and easy an setting, so choose the setting that you are most comfortable with.
Make sure that when you're playing this game, you add to the experience by playing with an X Box 360 Wireless Racing Wheel. With the wheel, you'll feel every little bump and sharp turn. You can even tell when your brakes lock! Microsoft just cut $20 off of the price of the wheel, but it's still rather expensive. Don't let the price make your decision for you. The wheel is worth every dollar.
