I'll have to agree with OP here.... This game is WAY overrated on most sites. I saw the vids and reviews and decided to give it a shot... most dissapointing game I think I've bought ever. And since I'm a ps3 owner, I still go to gt5p if I wanna drive. (If I had a 360 I would check out forza3)... Just wish polyphony would quit slackin and get gt5 out already...

It does get a lot of good reviews, but I was just notifying people of the problems with it. If you just play a demo with all of the "handicaps" on, it is great. When you turn braking, steering, stability, etc helpers off, it is damn near impossible. And there are little issues everywhere. Those kind of things drive me nuts when I pay $60 bucks for the game. I was just letting people know that the errors that are noted in the review I first posted are not a one time occurrence. In any event where the Corvette Z06 is "given" to you by the game, it will not work. No matter what. The Viper as well. Just errors that should not have been in a game that expensive.
Plus I want the little 5 second rewind in Forza 3

PS- customization of cars is pretty pitiful as well. I may be expecting too much, but there were not many options to make the car look like you want it. And the 370Z with Works conversion looks........ ew.
