Wow. I found out a week ago today that Forza motorsport 4 for the xbox 360 will not have ANY Porsche's unlike the previous 3 games.
Why? EA (electronic arts) has decided to no longer work with Mircosoft with their very sucesssful Simulation racer. For those of you who don't know EA purchased the electronic rights for Porsche way back in the 90's and any non EA produced game had to pay EA in order to feature Porsche's in their games. This was fine up until 18months ago when EA decided to horde Porsche for themselves and only feature the Stugartt menace in their awful Need for Speed francise.
At any rate, I plan on grabbing the game anyways because it is the best sim racer to date. I think the question now is in a world without Porsche, what manufacture should I run too for racing? BMW? Nissan? Chevy? Ford?
Also, what cars do you think matches the performance of the 968 the best? RX-7? 300z?
