this tells you the top photographic areas and will also prove if TDU really does feature nearly everything oahu does. also some mentions of tunnels and stuff.

and also rental cars!

5 FOSTER BOTANICAL GARDEN, at the edge of downtown Honolulu, has earned national recognition for its Prehistoric Glen, which contains some of the oldest plant forms on Earth- some left over from the dinosaur age- all organized and displayed in chronological order.

You should get a 360. If you like driving games you will love Forza2, there's a new wheel coming out with it too. It's worth spending the pennies on and you get to play TDU much earlier. I don't think it will be out this year for the PC.

Yea I know, but im a bit short on money atm, besides buying a 360 would also require a HD TV to get the most out of the 360. :-/
My friend got a 360 but only a CRT TV and frankly the picture quality sucks.

Has anyone checked out Oahu on google earth yet. It's quite impressive, quite large too. This place will take a while to memorise. :) Some impressive looking roads too. :bravo: :bravo:

After a further look I'm using google earth as a point of reference to find interesting and wonderful places. I've just found a load of hidden tracks which look like they go through a wooded type area and around lakes. Nice.

Hi all,

Canadian here, hoping to pick up a 360 and the game tomorrow on my lunch break - basicallyl i want a 360 for this game :)

You guys have a great forum here with awesome info - I love google maps so for those of you who have yet to try it :

http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=oahu&ie=UTF8&z=11&ll=21.462015,-157.949066&spn=0.432624,0.86792&om=1

that should give you the real-life lay of the land - I can't wait to see if it's truly authentic!

Cheers, and thanks for all the enthusiasm and info

Can someone please give me the coordinates for the race track? I cannot seem to find it on Google Earth... :(

What's really fun though: creating routes on Google Earth for future custom races... I made myself four already mdr1

Google Earth seems to be a few years behind on certain areas, but the Honolulu Raceway is now gone to my knowledge.
