conceeded? bragg? WUHS GUZEZ FAV?

If you are gonna jack my thread with irrelivant posts, at least do it in english. En-glish. ENGLISH. PLEASE.
 
FR, and with no "scrapping-the-body-on-the-track" settings. It's too easy if you ask me, 'sides I wanna see a bit of 'body roll'. :D
MR is touchy stuff. FF gives me nightmares and AWD (to me) is just about timing the turn into the corner right or flying off the track if you don't.
 
I like AWD the best, the replays definitely look cleaner (compared to my FR) and for me it's more of a challenge than FR esp when im using sims at the corners.
 
Yea i like 4wd cars but i mean....when i try and drift with them and im going 2 fast on a corner it has a tendancy of like spinning out from the front..its weird. and it dose that with all my 4wd cars..sooo...i dont even bother with 4wd's but yea...
 
FR. Motivation. I juuuust love it. Dont know why but it feels more genuine then 4WD. Lonley on that one?
 
If my video card EVER GETS HERE, I am already saving replays with awesome lines that I will record with the Video-In feature of the card and edit them into a vid.

Pure. R34. Drift.
 
yea well...my brother says that n e thing thats not and fr..and it...well what he calls sliding isn't drifing..and it's AZZ SLIDING...I mean I dont think that 4wd drifting is azz sliding but I really think that ff car is azz sliding for sure. But I dunno i haave my own oppinions and things here and there.
 
Please make an effort to type the way you would write something in school. They teach you that kind of think for a reason.

Anyways, I can't see how an AWD car can, "ass drag," considering all four wheels are spinning with power behind them. But, we all have our opinions I suppose.
 
yeawell he dosnt call it aass dragging he calls awd...sliding...because he says that you dont have any control over it so....whatever..o yea and sorry for my grammer and stuff..its just its easier to do it the other way but yea...he calls ff ass dragging...but any wayz...

What the hell?
Maybe your brother has some mental handicap that your parents are overlooking in denial.
You have more control over a drift with AWD than you do with FR.
 
Well I dont know but...my brother has a car, and he dose drift and ummm plus i think hes right becase when i drift a awd...I feel like its just sliding and thers no control over it what so ever...so i think he's right...fr are sooooo much better and diferent

You just need to practice. AWD drifting requires a slightly different technique and if you don't practice that technique you're not going to have any control and you'll just be sliding into walls sideways. However, if you practice it, you'll have just as much if not more control than RWD drifting.

I voted for RWD simply because I think it's more fun. I love being able to just power-over drift through some corners. When I used to drift with AWD cars all the time, I felt like I was doing the same thing in every corner. I didn't even need to try different techniques. I had one that worked and I used it all the time. (It was basically a combination of braking and feint. I'd feint to the outside before a turn then back to the inside and hit the brakes, the car would come around and I'd slam on the gas...that was pretty much it) With RWD, it's like I'm using a different style on every corner (power-over, braking, feint, sidebrake, etc) and it seems much more fun to me. It would probably be more fun to drift with AWD cars if I practiced more. I know there are more techniques I could use, but I just don't feel like it.

Hey, I can't hook my video card up to my TV because my TV doesn't have S-Video Out.

However, I noticed a tiny port with a little door on the back of my PS2 that says 'Digital Out (optical)'. What's funny is, my cable that links my digital camera to my computer has the same tiny plug and it fits into the port of my PS2.

Then the other end fits into my USB port on my computer. Soooo.... how would I go about recording the shizzle?
 
you could try to record onto your video cameras memory if it would recognize the data stream.. in otherwords..
connect ps2 to camera.. tell the camera to save what the ps2 is playing.. then connect camera to comp and move it.
 
Hey seito whatever u took my lil picture thing... my uhhh avatare thing whatever its called...if u Japanese then its koo but if u aint and u just using that... then hey that aint kool.. but yeah anways..my bad...dint mean 2 bark at ya my bad...(damn! azn pride, ughhh its going 2 kill me 1 day)

The port in the back of the PS2 is the optical out port. If you look on the back when the PS2 is on, you can see a red light coming from that hole. Also, for those that don't know, the optical cable is for Audio, so it's not possible to send video over it. Furthermore, You just need to get an S-video PS2 cable to replace your RCA cables. This way you just hook up your PS2 directly to the capture card. ;)
