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

balfe1990

Day 1 DLC? Man... :?

This generation kind of sucks really.

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

yeah thats the highest price I've ever seen for a DLC pass

But luckily there are enough games coming out now untill the end of the year to keep me busy so I'll just wait for the inevitable Complete Edition.

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.

balfe1990

Yeah that's me. New screen name on gamespot though.

Played most of the demo this morning. It's FM4 on the open road. Exactly what I was looking for in a game like this. However, my mood is not aimed at cars right now (Halo and Nier are my focuses), so I'll put off buying it probably until the new year.

I suddenly got interested after these gorgeous screens and positive feedback from guys here who played the demo. Will Forza Horizon support my Driving Force GT steering wheel?

Unfortunately not. The list of compatible 360 wheels isn't very long, and if you want force feedback it gets even shorter. I can point you in the right direction if you are interested.

Horizon will be compatible with some racing wheels like Microsoft's wireless Speed Wheel and Fanatec's force-feedback CSR wheel

IGN

Not sure. I don't think they've released a list of all the compatible wheels but the above work for definite.

Just finished the Mustang vs Mustang race and now I'm pumped for this game. The graphics are amazing, the handling is excellent, the soundtrack is surprisingly good and I'm really digging the open world map. Can't wait for my preorder to arrive! :D

Well to be fair the Fanatec line is far from crap. They are some of the best wheels on the market. My Porsche 911 Turbo S blows away my Logitech Driving Force Pro in every way. Add a set of clubsport pedals and it doesn't get much better.

He means crap in terms of "not supporting very many" I would imagine.

Luckily, I was able to get a LE preorder from Newegg for $68 instead of $80 so that should take some of the sting off at least. :P

I will have to wait for a couple of days after it releases but I'm willing to wait.

By the way, I was playing more of the demo, just roaming around at night and man, I love the atmosphere. I was flying down the freeway in my Lancer and suddenly careened off-road, through some guy's white picket fence and into what I think was a bale of hay, side-swiped it and kept on going. This game is awesome.

The night sky is f'ing gorgeous. I stopped at one point and just admired everything while thisgemblasted in the background.

Great stuff. Think I'm going to play the demo again now. Just Dl'ed Episode 4 of theWalking Dead, started up my save and lo and behold, the game took me back to Episode 1, deleting my progress in the previous 3 episodes in the process. I am literally seething with anger right now.

SO NOBODYDLEPISODE 4 OF THE WALKING DEAD UNTIL THEY PATCH THIS ISSUE, it's a problem present on all platforms apparently.

Probably not too far off on the score. I have a feeling the reviewers are going to eat this game alive just because it has Forza in the title. We'll see soon, I think the review embargo ends tomorrow.

Alright Microsoft, all three of your heavy exclusive hitters are hitting within 6 months of each other starting with Forza this month and ending with Gears in March. So far Forza is off to a get start after this review, but once gears is out I think it will be time for some new blood in the ol' xbox department. This is probably xbox 360's swan song before we go into the new gen.
