:boredom: Not as extensive as the customization in the Fast and Furious, but still decent.

I'd like to see more import brands repped in this game, like Origin Lab, Stillen, 5Zigen, Buddy Club, HKS, Work, Top Secret, Megan, KS Auto, JIC Magic, etc. but such is life.

 

[SmokeyVol]

I'm guessing that things will be added along the way as $downloadable$ content.

 

[milohimself]

Probably not with what I was talking about... Not enough time for extra paperwork, etc. There will probably be more game-original body kits and such, but that's about it.

To Our Japanese Users: An Update on Forzamotorsport.net's Xbox Live Features
Dear Forza Motorsport 2 Players in Japan,
I want to give you guys a quick update of the Forzamotorsport.net "relaunch" with all the Xbox Live features of the game integrated into the new site -- especially the ability to download your Photo Mode pictures.
We are currently experiencing user load and performance issues with certain functionality on the new website. The crew here is working around the clock to fix the issue and we hope to have the new Forzamotorsport.net up and running as soon as we isolate the issue. When we do have the website up, you will be able to log in with your Xbox Live gamertag email and download your Photo Mode images.
Judging from the activities I've been seeing in the Auction House, Tournaments, and Forza TV, you guys in Japan are having a total blast with this game in the past couple days since the release. I've already seen some very impressive car designs out there -- I even tried to bid for some cool Miata paint jobs but was outbid by another user! Keep doing what you're doing -- your creative energy is what makes Forza 2 truly a next gen racing game.
Thank you for your patience and interest in Forza 2. I will be back soon with hopefully good news.

That’s very odd for Japan users to be crazy over an Xbox game. The playstation keeps losing steam……

I like how one review called it Lego Forza because of all the jaggies. That made me laugh after finally looking at the demo last night.

 

[SmokeyVol]

:ermm: I think it looks good
