Now installing the second disc, then going to sort out all the extra content codes, then it's time to PLAY PLAY PLAY!

How long that take btw? As I will have to go through all this when I get home tonight.

4 redemption codes to go through too then play play and play some more :huepfenic

The install only took me a couple of minutes - it's only 100 or so cars it sticks on there. It's not a major content install like the PS3 does.

Oh noes, i menshund teh ps3 teh fanbois will coem nao111!!!

Didn't take long at all, only a few minutes. The extra download pack took longer, its 600mb+ I think. Probably just my slow connection making it take ages.

I'd fetch a USB keyboard aswell if you haven't got one already, it was a pain in the arse to put all the codes in on the controller.

The little pad that plugs into the controller is great for stuff like that (and now in-game photo descriptions!). Wouldn't have thought about picking it up myself, but was a gift from a friend. Been really useful.

When I first got my 360 I was looking for the 'chat package' or whatever it was called, it had the headset and the little keyboard thing that plugs into the controller, but everywhere I looked never had any in stock.

I'll probably just reinstall my wireless keyboard on here and use this one on the 360 if I get that desperate.

Edit: Just took a quick photo of my little Honda Fit. Only done a few races so not done much to it yet.

Yup, great little addition, mine was a christmas pressie from the missus a couple of years ago believe it or not!!!

So the wait begins. I just got home, now waiting for the game to be delivered

What was that noise? Was it the post? No, just a car passing. What about that? Nope, cat on the wall.

I love screwing with people. But only if I have the advantage

That said, I'm at work for a while longer, then I'm out for the afternoon renewing my membership at the casting agency, then I'm out for dinner, then I'm out all weekend. So I won't be playing much over the next couple of days

So I made the switch from PS3 to 360 a couple of weeks back

I didn't know they were mutually exclusive?

Ah not too long then, I might start the downloads and go and eat some tea as does take a while sometimes. I only has a wireless usb kb, i assume it wont work but I don't know, worth trying though I suppose.

The only way I can think theywould be mutually exclusive it from a cost point of view.

I doubt it'll work as it will need drivers.

its still not here :[


EDIT: Okay, wtf, the store changed its info. Now its coming in on 28th... god damnit >:C

Quote from beefyman666 :

I doubt it either but for small doubt because it is a Microsoft keyboard and worked straight off on pc, though may have downloaded drivers anyway. I also hope because going to be a major pain inputting all those codes by screen keyboard I am sure I will live though.

It'll only take 5-10 minutes using the controller. Still a pain in the arse though.

Was driving the Scirocco earlier on just to see how it was, and as much as I think it's ugly as sin, it drives really nicely straight out of the box.

Maybe when we get cars that are fast enough al of us should make a drift vid

This game is a blast! So much fun!

Off to play more

ahh the wait is killing me!

Say what? I saw a blue one in the street the other day and I nearly jizzed in my pants.

Well that's true, do they have the new Fiesta in FM3? I've seen a few of those and they look really good, it's amazing how good hatchbacks look these days.

EDIT: just saw the picture of one at the top of this page, I think I will try and get one of those as my early car. I have to wait until November the 9th unfortunately.

Yeah the new Fiesta is in, one of the starter cars too

True that, the new Scirocco is one of the best looking hatchbacks on the market..

New Fezza is there yeah. And again, I don't like it all that much. A mk1 Fezza on the other hand...

I got a soft spot for older cars. Cars today just look all the same to me.

I will admit though, for examples the Fiesta and the Scirocco, it is amazing how far they've come through the years.

E: I take it you're getting FM3 as a birthday present? You're a day older than me.

i got accepted into the facebook/twitter/last.fm/zune marketplace xbox live update, i just have to wait till they roll the update for me.

Waiting for legends dlc to download..

Only did 2 races. Msff works better than in demo. It really is great now.

I only did 2 races, but feel it's an amazing game. Loading times could be better though.

Can't wait to play more.
