Forza 2 and Xbox Live

Got Forza 2 a few days ago and i love it...
moved the Xbox out of my room to the big screen TV downstairs so i could take advantage of the HD but i cant get any ethernet down there, is live important for Forza? What can you do with this game
online? If it's really worth it i could get a wireless adapter for the Xbox but those are kinda expensive

I would get Live. You can pay a little extra and get all the extra cars then... including the e92 M3. You can obviously do online tournaments etc also.

I think the wireless adapter is a rip off so I'd just run a LAN cable under the carpet or something if you have to.

Oh and did I mention I hold 3 records on the Nurburgring :-) lol...

Totally agree, the WiFi adapter is a rip-off, but Forza 2 does shine with Xbox Live. I picked up all of the extra tracks - love Road America - and a few of the car packs (the one with the E92 M3 of course).

Then one of the best features of the on-line experience is the ability to download both ghosts and replays of top performers for any of the given tracks in the game so you can go against the top laps and learn from others.
