Games with the Ford Falcon

[sleekism]

I just bought Need For Speed Hot Pursuit 2 to add to my collection and I made a startling discovery: It has the Ford TS50 5.6L Stroker.

What other games have the Ford Falcon?

I think GTA4 has it and I think Juiced has the XR8 which you can do up.

I'm hoping the next Need For Speed has a GTHO or something in Need For Speed Carbon they have good classics like the Shelby Mustang and Plymouth Roadrunner and they sound awesome and you can customise them to look awesome.

I have a Shelby Mustang dropped on it's guts with bodykit huge rims and engine poking out the bonnet and it sounds frukin awesome.

Does the new Forza have the Falcon?

I have Forza 1 and it mind boggling I changed the sensitivity of the diff in a 429 mustang so it constantly does a one track burnout :

Need for Speed 3: Hot Pursuit had the EL GT
Need for Speed 4: High Stakes had the AU1 XR8
Need for Speed 6: Hot Pursuit 2 (as you mentioned) has the T3 TS50
Juiced (also as mentioned) has the BA XR8
Ford Racing 3 has the XB GT coupe and the BA XR8
Ford Street Racing: XR Edition has the XY GT, XY GTHO, the BF XR8 Sedan and BA XR8 Ute
GT4 has the BA GT, Typhoon, and Seto's 2001 FTR Falcon
Obviously the V8 Supercar games have Falcons too

EA too lazy to continue paying Australian division on the Gold Coast money to do the Australian content ie Australian cars, Australian artwork and Australian voiceovers.

quite a few games have had falcons
NFS 3,4,6
Juiced (I think)
Couple of the el cheap Ford Racing games
Grand Turismo 3/4
V8 Supercars 1,2,3
GT Legands- Has a US Falcon Sprint Hardtop

One of my favourite games Is the PC version "sports car GT" it Has patches for almost any car you could ever think of,yes heaps of falcons road going and race cars Xy,xb,xc,coupes,dickjohnsons race cars,escorts,cortinas you name it some one has patched it..theres forums about it all over the net

Im must reinstall it on my PC again,but when you patch some of the cars and tracks you start to have issues with it if you go over board .

Yep. NFS3 had the VT1 HSV GTS. NFS4 had the VTII HSV SV99 (plus the 99' HRT Commodore was a bonus car). Hot Pursuit 2 had the HSV Coupe GTS. NFS Underground 2 has the Pontiac GTO (rebadged Monaro). NFS Most Wanted and NFS Carbon have both the Pontiac GTO and the Vauxhall Monaro

GTRII on PC has a great BF/VZ patch + a bunch of aussie tracks.

Agreed, absolutely hooked on that game.

I believe its based on "rfactor" (http://rfactor.net/) which you can download/buy directly off the net, and that has an awesome V8 supercar mod as well.

As for the Need For Speed games, I THINK it was number 3 that I used to play HEAPS of, and there were downloadable cars galore made by enthusiasts all over the world on fan sites.

I'm waiting to see if Test Drive Unlimited include high-end Holdens & Fords in their downloadable cars, but I'm not holding my breath.

Ah cool. I have Rfactor but didnt know there was a V8SC mod for it. Rfactor physics not quite scary enough tho.

All need now is V8SC mod for LFS and we're set

I quote from a private message I received on another forum regarding rfactor (I was gonna PM it to you 4.9 EF Futura but decided if others are interested it may be of benefit to have it in public)

checkout www.rfactorcentral.com for all the stuff you can download for the game - it includes an awesome version on Bathurst, and coming soon is a Touring Car Legends mod featuring the VK and VL commodre of the 80's and 90's if you like them.....

...plus you can always download add-on cars for games like GTA:3,4 etc. NFS:3 as mentioned earlier had Aussie cars, but you could download add-on cars from somewhere too. Of course, the physics / speed isn't always top notch. I'd race an XA GT vs a TS50 and absolutely destroy it...hehe

TOCA 2 or 3 has Falcons and Commos I think

GT Legends has XP falcon coupe
