Forza Motor Sport Deliciousness

Goodness, the kind of stuff we spend processing power doing. Check out this article about how ridiculously accurately tires are modeled in Forza motor sport: http://www.xbox.com/en-US/forza/greenawalt-20050422.htm

Here's a Popular Science article comparing the REAL cars v. the simulation (Spoiler: the simulation does a damn fine job): Race Against Reality

Goodness... so much modeling power on basically a triviality. That doesn't mean I'm not going to be buying the wheel and playing this until three in the morning (to all those living with me, I'd like to apologize in advance). It's just a shame that they've made it so damn fine that I'm going to throw my life away playing it. I'm kind of worried actually.. it sounds so accurate that I'm probably not going to be any good at it (let alone online against others). Especially if you measure the skill in driving to number of dings in my car.
