The other day was my birthday, February 27th and as a gift, a bunch of my friends gave me best buy gift cards. I had enough, well sorta, to buy something I’ve had my eye on for quite sometime.
You see, over Christmas, my wife and I won an XBOX 360 in a dance competition at her work’s Christmas party. At first I had mixed feelings because I have always been a Playstation type of guy, but beggars can’t be choosers. One of the prerequitsites for having a Playstation, if you’re a car guy, is Grand Turismo. But since my newly aquired gift was not an XBOX, I’d have to do with the Microsoft version of Grand Turismo; Forza Motor Sports.
When I played Grand Turismo, I always felt like something was lacking. Therefore, I had my eye on the steering wheel controller for the XBOX 360. I thought the controller would make things that much more real, but in truth, all it did was make things seem very disconnected.
Now this isn’t a criticism of Forza Motor Sports on its own, but mostly just the controller. It’s too disconnected and there seems to be a delay that makes it almost unusable.
I would like to say that I could blame it all on the steering wheel, but when it comes down to it, I’m probably just not that good. But, being the car enthusiast I am, that is a devastating blow to my ego so we will not talk about it any longer.
