We at topcar shrugged off any attempt to suffer the stalwart staff-party alternatives. That meant 'no' to go-karting, pub lunches, gentleman club visits and all those other things YOU all got to do. As it turns out, none of these could hold a candle to a day-long Forza 4 session, courtesy of the good folk at 4Elements Gaming Festivals who kindly loan us a pair of consoles and screens. A wealth of hot metal, digitally remastered for the small screen and very many of which we’ve driven in Real Life, were whipped around virtual versions of Laguna Seca, Tsukuba and more. And not one iota of a car review was gleaned from it, relief!

Twelve hours quickly rolled by, fuelled by little more than pizza, beer and Rockstar energy drinks. We’ll be working closely with 4EGF in 2012 to bring you some exciting new challenges and gaming experiences. Watch this space
