...anyway, I'm in need of a steering wheel for my 360 and PS3. These controllers make it much more difficult to control the car. I'm glad I didn't bring my 360 home with me. Since I got a PS3 for Christmas, I've been playing GT5 non stop.

I'm also geeked about Lancia's new Stratos GT2. It looks very similar to the original. Less is more.

GT5 is by far the best racing simulator I've ever played. I love Forza for the 360, but it's lacking detail. Both games are pretty much running neck and neck. The 360 background graphics are better, the cars are about equal, but GT5 has much more detail. It has night driving, light flashing, and even the windshield wipers work. You can even turn them off and on, nothing is computer controlled. They even change the oil, and work on the car, and it shows people doing the work. Forza doesn't have that. So far, I haven't seen "damage" like they said it has. I'm thinking I don't have something selected. I called my buddy and he said there is damage in it. Overall, both games are really good, but GT5 gives the racing enthusiast more racing detail. I stayed on that thing for 5 hours last night. I'm really enjoying my vacation.

Forza Motorsport 4 is in the works.
hehehehe....yup...I knew it.

LOL. I know people who took a week off for WoW: Cataclysm.

Five hours was probably the amount of sleep they got.

That sounds like one of my line brothers. He played WoW like it was his career. I tried watching him play a few times, but never could get into it.

For him, that was just one night. $5 bucks he's been doing that every night, since Christmas.

eta: $10 bucks he's playing it right now as we speak (probably with an empty bowl of chitlins in front of him).

I've put enough hours into WoW for it to count as a 2nd full-time job.

You can't get into it by watching. If you don't take a character from scratch and watch them grow its pretty hard to just observe and understand. Bonus points if you pay attention to the lore.
