When you save it, it will ask to upload to storefront. You can pick yes or no. Then it will ask if you want to upload to your Forza profile or something like that. Click yes

edit: Nice bimmer, that is the sechs

I loved Forza 1/2/3 and I loved my xbox and 360.
And don't get me wrong, those are nice pics even if you did take them in a strange way.

And its a good game too, but after I went to my pc and started playing racing games on it, it just puts forza to shame.

Grid on the Pc blows the console versions away. and is a better (imo) racing game. It lacks the total custom options that forza has, but the effects and feel of the game is just better.

Dirt 2 has by far the best effects on PC, exp on DX10/11 and maxed out.

Iracing is about as close to a real car as you are going to get, in terms of how things really work.

Once you get a good Pc and start playing it, you wont go back to consoles. Well I haven't.

But, I did enjoy my time on Forza 3.

Smoke effects on consoles are pathetic at best, thats what makes the (more visual) games on PC that much better.

I agree with Titan, I just recently built my first gaming rig and the graphics on the pc blow the xbox away. I have my xbox and computer both hooked into a 42" lcd hd tv, I also have bioshock 2 for my xbox and computer. I tried going into the same rooms and then switching between input's on the tv to check the graphics against each other and its ridiculous. There are things not even in the xbox version that show up on the pc, I am talking about details in the walls and floor, how the guns look, how the NPC's look, and mainly just the overall look. Its really night and day, plus if you are like me and are new to using a keyboard and mouse

or just like the feel of a controller. I am about to order one of these though

Normally its an 80.00$ mouse, its weight is adjustable and it has the highest dpi in the industry. I still love my xbox, and any game that I will be playing online multiplayer like black ops will still be only bought for my xbox. Though any game that is just single player or I don't care about the multiplayer like bioshock 2 and fallout new vegas will be pc only for me from now on.

BTW plus if you don't mind doing some things that are questionable there are ways to get the games for free.
Although I would never do such a thing it is a big selling point for some people.

I got a brand new wired black 360 controller for $25 and I got the 360 headset, it works great with skype. even if im not using the controller I can use the headset to talk over skype.
The K/B mouse is great but for games like just cause 2 or grid the controller is handy, I also have a game pad for games that do not support pressure triggers like the 360 controller has.

I also have a G500 for logi. I love it. Adjust on the fly is a must have for me now.

Ya thats one of the things I am looking forward to on the razer lachesis mouse is adjust on the fly. Right now I have an old optical wired microsoft mouse with 4 buttons and a scroll wheel, its just not precise enough and the buttons aren't programmable. I am seriously thinking about a racing wheel with force feedback for some racing games and a nice joystick for some flight sims and fighter jet games. I do know I just discovered a completely new side of gaming that I wish I would have gotten into years ago.

I wish I had the money to put together a gaming rig. I've been out of it for a few years and I just can't believe what I'm seeing on the shelves- 2GB DDR5 with DX11?!?!?! I have a 1GB DDR2 with DX10 (supported)

Yeah but a 360 costs about 200-300 bucks and will play any and all 360 games that have been or ever will be made. How much did that gaming rig set you back? Not to mention how must it will cost to keep it current. But I'm biased because I've been a console gamer for most of my 30 years. I'm not bashing you just offering a different view.
