I know, right?
And this is without the Outback, and without Surfer's Paradise and all the playground stunt areas, and without the motherfucking Warthog
Lots to look forward to on the 27th, and earlier for some of you folks.

It sucks that racing games get the shaft in reviews. Hopefully this can be Xbox One's first 90+ metacritic game lol
But seriously it should. The best in class of every respective genre should

That's fucking awesome! Thx for showing that
. My Internet sux so I still have about 4 hours left til I can play this sweet demo. At least I'll have Recore in about a half hour to help speed things up. Edit: DAM! Those Sunhi drone videos are sick! Nice work!

I'm not much of a fan of racing games but I played the demo on my Xbone. Goddamn this game looks great.
Is that Ford Fiesta driveable or is it just an NPC car?
I looked at the car list but only found the 2014 ST model.
That is flawless.

PC demo coming after full game release
I believe they said there would be a PC Demo. However, it won't come out til "some time after launch." Feel bad for the PC users honestly. This demo looks amazing!
Edit: Beaten lol
Guys, im torn !
I have the ultimate edition pre ordered and of course, am excited. why?
I have a dedicated gaming room with a projector, TX wheel with a custom racing rig that uses an authentic race seat with the Th8a clutch set and pro pedal set up. its AWESOME ! but then I tried the demo....
My excitement and expectations on how I was going to experience the game done a 180. This game is downright frustrating and impossible to play with a wheel/clutch. Even in automatic I find the steering to be...not good at all.
and the View, it seems like it needs to be played in a chase cam. There is too much going on, its too twitchy and not to mention down right gorgeous to play using an in car camera.
The game seems to be very good but im so bitter right now. Anyone else feel this way? I cant believe im going to be playing this on the couch with a controller.

Well fortunately a lot of us also have an XB1 So I can still play it. But I wanted that hot Ultrawide 100fps action
Not that I put much (any) stock in reviews, and particularly Metacritic, but I believe the Forza games have generally been reviewed pretty positively.
Haha, nice. I don't have the best PC to run this, so I'll be playing this strictly on my Xbox One I'm sure. I'm at least gonna see how it runs on my PC though. If I ever upgrade my GPU in the future, at least I'll have some Xbox games to test it out on.
No, sadly

I'll do both. If I have something streaming like a football game I'll be in my computer room where I have multiple consoles/monitors set up and play it on PC. Otherwise I'll lounge in the living room and play it in upscaled 4k.
Blown away by how much I loved FH2 so really stoked.

Spent some time teaching the civilian cars how to drive on the correct side of the road. That is always a weird adjustment when they swt games in countries that drive in the wrong side.
Np. Love your reviews man. Great work!
Yeah I at least have a 4K HDR TV that I'll be able to play on. So maybe that'll help it out a bit.

Might even wade into the Windows Store or whatever it is for this. ...maybe. Sure looks good.

On a side note, they definitely upped the particle effects compared to FH2.

I have the same setup and it feels exactly the same as horizon 2. And i dont know what driving automatic would have to do with the steering.
VlaudTheImpaler
tl;dr
I wouldn't feel bad buying a UWA game that is first party bro.
yeah sorry that didn't make sense, I was referring to how if I focused just on driving in automatic the steering felt off. Not nearly as precise as Forza 6. Your having no trouble?

Well I was gonna try and wait until it released to play. Dammit Sunhi. Those gifs are too good. Downloading now.

Drone mode is hard, you need a second controller hooked up to keep control of the car while flying the drone with the other.

Looks amazing going off screens and gifs posted, and that drone feature sounds awesome, hot damn.

If you had badass knights on horses, it's the correct side. If you didn't, well you're American.

Its diffrent from 6, just as horizon 2 was diffrent from 5. Is your FFB turned up to 100, because its set to 50 by default?
Really like the 2nd and last pic especially
. I'm jealous of you people playing now. Recore has an update, and it pushes back my FH3 demo download as well. I might not even get to play tonight .

Wholly shit production value of this joint..unmatched. Drop Dead Gorgeous Game...PERIOD.
I haven't "closed" the game yet (I can suspend the game and resume later), but I believe there is an Xbox policy to not allow local saving for demos.
I don't think you can in the demo. Just leave it in standby and pray your Xbox doesn't have an update overnight lol.
hnnnnggggg
That landscape and cloud background in the second picture is amazing. God damn
I hope they create a better ad for this game than "Leave your limits".
The TV spot was so short and they spent way too much time on the boring slot car track. you don't need a concept for an ad for a game this incredible! Just show it!
I can't believe how good it is! Leaves everything else in the dust!! Literal dust, and sand, and water splashes, and smoke, and fence pieces!

$99 down..and not a single regret was given.
Game looks incredible !
Fantastic looking skybox.
$130 down here, and no regrets either. Granted, $120 was from trade-ins but still.
