A word on Forza 3

So it's been about 6 months since the release of Forza Motorsport 3, and after getting quite far and having some great fun there's only a few things I have to say. First things first, as wonderful as it has been running around in my tricked out Mini JCW spanking the average computer opponents at full difficulty, I must say I crave for more of a challenge. A challenge more of the human variety, but somehow, someway the developers forgot how to provide myself and many other people with a way to fulfill our desires. In a frankly lame attempt to give us racers what we wanted Turn 10 gave birth to a monstrosity called matchmaking lobbies. If there was one thing I could ask Turn 10, it would be "why did you get rid of the online system that worked oh so beautifuly in Forza 2 for matchmaking in Forza 3?" nothing would please me more than to find out the reason behind the strange choice to mess with near multiplayer perfection in such a drastic manner. My only other meaningful comment is on the odd fact that Turn 10 forgot to make dashboards work in r-class cars. It sounds like something small but it's those little details that make this game what it is. I hope they get to work soon on correcting these issues.
