I'm quite opposite; i was so hyped about MS's presser and was close to buying an x1, but after watching their conference i was severely disappointed with their showings; therefore, no xbox for me.

Will there be car washes to pull into? I dont want any water spots ruining my photomode pictures
In the original game you could return the car to factory fresh when in photo mode.

Hey more power to you, but I don't see how so many people here can find no joy in the MS conference. What were you all expecting? I want more of my favorite franchises, and that's just what they're doing.

That b-roll footage is glorious, I need that game NOW. I'm just slightly irritated by the amount of offroad racing, lotta cutting corners and stuff, that's has to be more optional depending on the class of cars or something like that. How is that going to work online?
Just wondering, the e3 gameplay trailer says "DRAMATIC WEATHER", what the hell?! Dynamic weather, ok I get that, but dramatic?

No snow, then. Well, looking forward to what is there. And then snow and ice in Horizon 3, set in India, Himalayas and all.

Looks solid. I was hoping for a little more wow but knowing pretty much everywhere you look you can drive to is just thrilling to think about.
There is one thing that annoyed me though. When he's racing in cockpit view with the rain coming down, the rain drops on the side windows would just stand still. The drops should form streams and push backwards because of the high speeds. Otherwise it looks amazing, but I'm really into details I guess
Yeah, coverage until the end of the month. It won't be a daily update now as that would probably be overkill, but there's still plenty of cool info to come.
I'd imagine as well that from tomorrow you'll start seeing some footage of the E3 demo from the showfloor.
I'm sorry but this hopefully has time to cook some more in the oven. Not trying to start a war but we have seen much better already.
You have been doing a great job, as usual. Keep it up.
Cheers Monk, it's always great to see your positivity in various threads, keep it up yourself mate
O: I need this!

Really nice showing today, if it plays as good as the first then we are in for a treat.
That's debatable: H2 is open world and from the footage I've seen of both games, it also has an advantage in IQ. But let's not derail that thread here.

Yeah, microtransactions are usually the very last things we hear about, and even then its like pulling teeth.
I'd like to think that Turn 10's significant post-release changes to Forza 5's in-game economy were a strong sign for the brand as a whole. We'll see though. The first Horizon did push that angle far more than Forza 4 did.

Doing this has proven deadly for other accounts, mate.

So that must mean The Crew looks better graphically aswell then ? Isn't this all subjective anyway?
This looks and sound so good. Love the little of night time.

Not too keen on supercars driving off-road feature (Focuses, yes; Ferraris, of course not) but other than that, this looks like a proper sequel to one of the best racing games not just of last gen but ever (yes, at completely sufficient and playable 30fps) so it's bound to be super awesome.
Too bad I don't have an XB1 though. :/

so yeah copu from the other thread
On track racer on a more powerful system looks better than a free roaming racer on a weaker system
no shit?

Well crap. I thought it would be ok since it was actually something provided by MS and not just some rumor or hearsay.
Too late to delete so hopefully i'll be ok.
Or maybe it's because they want the interview to talk about the game itself, not about competing games and how it compares. Much like this thread, really.
Seems legit.
It's a weird comparison, DC was developed twice as long as FH2, is on the more powerful console, only has closed tracks and doesn't support weather. And yet I honestly don't see a huge difference in graphics and DC only has a fraction of FH2's content.
No need to wait. Im just looking at the cars and lighting. If the ability to render the cars and such at higher degree is to tasking then it is what it is. Doesn't mean there is hate or I won't play it.

I disagree, anyway. Both have different things going for them, and both are aiming for quite different styles, both in gameplay and presentation; Horizon is far more vibrant and more OutRun-like of the two, whereas Driveclub shoots for that restrained elegance of something like PGR (which is the only parallel between Driveclub and PGR that I feel comfortable drawing, what with the former game completely lacking city courses, one of the staples of the latter).
Personally, I'm far more pleased with Horizon 2 in all respects, but then again, the first Horizon is one of my favorite games, and I haven't played Driveclub yet. Regardless, I'm looking forward to trying out both.

You could easily edit your post though.
