To me it looks like gamepad + all driving aids.

Ok that does look horrid, whatever the reason is..

Slowing progress? I'm so over that that even S3 trailer with Hans Zimmerman music wouldn't hype me back up..


Ok maybe just that.

Couple of thoughts about using Windows Phone 8 for two days..

It's definately smooth, most of the time, what i mean is some apps like Twitter and Whatsapp launch faster on Android (ancient HTC Wildfire), if you switch to them via multitask window, it's instant, but if you launch it from the live/tile it takes 2, 3 seconds, even if you didn't back out of it with back button, so it should be in the memory, but it's not instant..
This is only the case for a few apps..
Keyboard is absolutely fantastic, such a joy to type..
There is no easy toggle for silent mode, just ringtone+vibrate and vibrate, if you want it completely silent you have to go settings then turn off ringtone and vibration seperately.
There's no proper Gtalk client so far (haven't tried them all), all works fine when the phone is on, but in standby they dont' give you push notifications.
Browsing is a pain, at least on my phone with 512ram, maybe it's better on 1gig models. It's nowhere near the speeds of Opera Mini which was my default browser on Android, pressing back in IE reloads the damn page again, it doesn't even refreshes it, just reloads it for an anooying few seconds of white screen, and there's no forward also..
Other most popular browser on the store just keeps crashin, so something like Opera Mini is definately needed.
What else, yes the battery percentage apps are not completely realtime, meaning if it shows 10% it's most likely 7%, you can see that when you open the app.
Another annoyance is that there's no separate volume controls, if you turn down the media clip, it also turns down the ringtone and alarm level.. pretty stupid.

So that's a few things i've noticed so far, maybe it will use someone..

He just wrote that he changes roms all the time And that sucks, i'm nowhere near a tech noob, but i just can't be bothered with rooting and flashing roms, tried it once on the Wildfire with a suposedly 'very easy to do' root, and ofcourse it wasn't easy and it didn't work, very annoying blue screen appeared on the phone and that's something i don't want to see and do on the damn phone, it should work fine out of the box without those acrobatics..

Quote from DeadWolfBones :Trying to decide between the HTC One and Lumia 928 for my next phone (though I'll have to see what the Moto X is all about). I like Android overall, but the incessant lagginess even on high-spec'd phones is driving me nuts.

That's what made me go for WP8, i've watched like a hundred of reviews so far and the system works butter smooth. Getting the Lumia 520 these days..

I love it, so small that fits in pocket, and sound is very clear and good games etc.

Quote from sinbad :LFS was a novelty for me, like "Wow, this is possible and it's bloody good!", or perhaps a bit like when you pass your driving test and you jump at any excuse to drive any car at any time.

That feeling has gone, so I can't see myself pumping hours in to it or any racing sim regularly again, but I'm still enthusiastic enough to want to enjoy them from time to time. You're right about the netcode but then I played nKpro for hours and hours and almost never online, and AC might be like that times a hundred, so even just as a single player game it will offer a lot, for me at least..

Yeah that's pretty much exactly how i feel.. I sure hope so i will have the will and time for some serious online races though, that's were these 'games' shine the most..

Quote from troy :Why must it always be this or that Sim? I don't think you need to "commit" to any single one, just play what you like who cares which combination of Sims you prefer.

I'm like that, couldn't play two of them on a serious level at the same time i don't think..
Like to choose something that is the best option in that genre, and stick to it..

But i've meant more like can you see yourself playing it like you did LFS in it's best of days.. or is that past us old timers..

Was doing some serious thinking while drinking coffee.. can you see this beeing the proper replacement for LFS, and i mean that LFS experience, in it's prime time, with leagues, skinning, setup sharing and all those good vibes.. I'm not there for a very long time and i'm guessing most of the old members aren't as into it as say, 2006, 2007..
I know it depends on the netcode and how they'll do the whole online thing, but can you see yourself commiting to another sim as you did to LFS?

That's a cool price, probably they aren't giving away any in Serbia though..

Quote from atledreier :GT3 car and a track as flat as a dining table is not the best way to showcase car dynamics, but it LOOKS pretty!
