Game equivalent of a relaxing trip to the spa, which is weird considering you're driving cars at over 100MPH+

Forza Motorsport was quickly gaining on Gran Turismo with this release. Cars were looking better, content was growing, fantasy tracks were fun to race on. There was a lot going right with this release.

I’ve tried to complete the main mode for years with breaks in between but I’m ready to move on. This game was gifted to me, it’s not the type I’d buy for myself. This is mainly the case because I’m not into simulation racing games but rather arcade or party racing games.

3 absolutely has some good qualities such as the graphics, the options you get to tweak your cars & difficulty and lots of content. The last one is also a problem for me. The main mode is a huge drag where the races were getting repetitive and long the more I played. They could have found a better way to make that mode more interesting instead of going through a checklist of the same races with little variation. It’s probably enough for the diehard racing fans who care about the cars and the feel of controls being realistic, but it doesn’t make for an engaging gameplay if you’re not big on that.

Solid racing game that I took all the way to the R1 championship. Would have liked a bit more track variety; it got somewhat stale after season 3.
