    I am referring to three consoles together for racing games in particular

    IE so you have a wide screen view or the outer 2 screens as wing/rear view mirrors

    Not having a lot of luck finding out

    Wanting to know if can do it with old X-Box rather than the 360 as may invest in 3 cheap flat screens to do it as have the consoles.

    Also what games are compatible

    I'm not sure if any xbox 1 games support it.

    As well on the 360 front I think only one/some of the fortza support it.

    Too bad sega never supported it on the dreamcast (since there where a few sega arcade racers that where 3 screens).

    You can do it in all the Forza games, and yes, this includes Forza 1 on the old Xbox. You just need multiple copies of the game as well as the consoles and TVs.

    Forza Motorosport does although it's a bit of a fiddle to do, but all you need are multiple xboxs, a switch (works better then a hub) and cables. You can even have a rear view mirror too. All the screns should be the same size and if not using RGB SCART cables then make sure you have PAL60 selected on all the Xboxs.

    On the PS2, you can use debug machines for GT4 as long as you have games from the same region and the debug has a ethernet socket.

    If I remember correctly there are versions of the test that do not support ethernet adaptors.
