Forza Horizon | Hype Thread | Bet you the demo could outscore GT5!

[QUOTE="RR360DD"]Game is incredible. Love the soundtrack, graphics look very nice and the handling is spot on. Wish they put a night time race in the demo, apparently its pretty incredible racing at night. I feel bad for cows missing out on this awesome game :( GamerwillzPS

I knew you would say that! ;)

I feel bad for lems missing out The Last of Us and Beyond: Two Souls. :( :P

I think lems will be busy enough with the new Xbox ;)

WTF, there's no demo... I looked in "New demos" and it's not there. I then used search, typed the game and found the demo but can't download it...

WTF is going on? Is it because I'm a cow so Microsoft blocked it from me? :cry:

Demo-Day Baby !! :D

It's got the potential to be sooooooo awesome but my head says 8.0 :o mah heart on the other hand says 9.0. :P

EDIT: Oh and nice job on the hype thread TC. :)

Gold members get access to demos and other content a week in advance. :)

Poor calves, having to bash on Godza Horizon, but its okay, you can still watch MGS4 and claim that its a game.

The amount of butthurt that a 4 year old game still brings to the table is pretty surprising.

MGS4 sucks, but the lems sure seem to love talking about it.

I'll try the demo because apparently this one is suppose to be more PGRish territory. PGR 4 was the sh1t. jg4xchamp

Following closely. Loved the style of forza 4, but put that in an open world game and you have the realism of forza, with the open world of need for speed.

Demo was amazing. Really.

AND DAT SOUNDTRACK. Putting down a preorder later today.

Will probably bag AA here.

Playground's staff has a lot of ex-bizzare man.Wouldnt be surprised if MS hires them for PGR5 after how good this is.

The vibe of the game is amazing, the whole festival thing going on, the music, the beautiful looking highways/roads...etc.

Races wise though, been there done that I don't reallly remember whats the difference between races except for the mustang vs mustang race which is a great idea but the execution was awful.

Lastly, like I thought, the game is restricted and there isn't much else to do for an open world game other than driving through the highly linear roads.

oh I almost forgot, can I turn the GPS voice off? that was annoying lol.

And how can I interact with the new rival/challenger appeared sh!t? can I race them one on one or what?

The demo was great and the graphic's are incredible, can't wait to pick it up

The demo is awesome, certainly better than i expected!

PGR 4 gameplay + Forza 4 graphics, probably the best arcade racing out there :)

Looks really good, man :) It has Forza 4´s car models and lightning, but the environments actually look better!

Im not sure what kind of AA they used in Horizon but image smoothehness is amazing for console standards...its nearly like photomode quality :S

Nice, they look gorgeous. The 360 hardware has an advantage due to the upscaler and better anti-aliasing support.

Forza Horizon and Halo 4 are on my Christmas list. :)

Demo is a blast, soundtrack is sweet, graphics are the **** Im lol at the 14 votes the game got for "Below an A". You cows realize voting it that far down wont make your wish reality? Sad attempt at damage control. Oh well, another awesome game for Xbox gamers. Enjoy PS All Starz haters :lol:

Played for an hour or so last night. ....

TL;DR version: If you are expecting FM5, stay away. If you are looking for an open world racing game with more realistic handling than Need for Speed, Test Drive Unlimited or Midnight Club, then this game may be exactly what you are looking for. It is just plain fun to play.HadOne2Many

I don't use a wheel but I agree with everything you posted. I'm actually very excited for this.

As one of the devs put, this game aims to be a " celebration of car culture". Quite fitting I think.

^Those pics arte impressive! Another 'console graphics king' contender.

I really wanted to get this game but when they announced that DLC pass and day one DLC my hype for it fell

Quick question, and sorry if this has already been covered here. 10 pages was a lot for me to read through and I may have missed it.

I've seen a few posts on the official forums that are saying there is a hidden stability assist that remains on unless you first change your difficulty to expert, then turn back on the assists you want. They are saying if you simply leave it at default then turn off the assists you still can't get rid of this one. Apparently the ABS indication on the HUD will flash when STM kicks in.

Can anyone confirm or deny this? If it is true it could explain why some of us are getting a more Forza 4 like experience than others.

Afraid I can't answer your question but are you the same chap that had the awesome multi-screen jobbie for Forza 3? Your name rings a bell.

This generation kind of sucks really.

Yeah. And the Season Pass is like 40 quid. It's stupid money to be paying.
