Forza Horizon 2 Launch Trailer & More

The other vs thread got locked, but I feel this needs our attention.

Demo next week. It's a great time to be a racing fan with an XB1.

Some glorious GIFs (shamelessly stolen from GAF)

And here's a link to a video with Shaun's impressions of the first hour of the game:

looks dope

Looks awesome, very excited to make a worthwhile X1 purchase finally! Then for Sunset Overdrive and the MC Collection...:) Dance Central Spotlight is spot on, though, forgot to mention.

Dem racers. Can't get enough.

Massive amount of cow jelly incoming.

Chills up the spine mang, looking superb and lots-o-fun.

Might have to buy an X1 for this.

Racing a freight train

Racing a Boeing plane
Fucking A!

I think this will beat out Forza: Horizon and PGR4 as my favorite racing games. Can't wait to get my hands on this.

AAAA!

Definitely has a chance. Too bad we can't add the E at the end though.

this game does seem like an achievement,,,,

Even though it's by 2 different devs but yeah rules are rules.

Nice looking mulit plat.

@Heil68: lol, right on cue :).

So looking forward to this, and the worst part is that I'm not done yet with F5 and recently got nfs rivals, so my racing needs are more than covered his year, be it arcade or sim. I saw that Forza fuel promo and didn't pay too much attention to it, anyone know what it is and if worth the time?

A multiplat? Meh if it makes fanbois happy. I had not paid much attention to this game till recently, I can't believe how good this game looks. I'll be picking this up with an XB1, but a bundle would make my day. Make it happen MS!

@HadOne2Many: Incredible. Greatness is here.

**********************************************************************

The XBox 360 version will be different. Not going to be the same game and won't have all the same modes. Only thing that will be the same is the name really. Pretty much lilke NBA 2K14. The XB1/PS4 versions are completely different from the PS3/Xbox 360 versions. It's not just graphics either.

Still love that GIF man

Yep, so frickin' stoked. I just hope my new TH8A shifter gets here in time for the game. It's on backorder at the moment :9.

Yep

No dynamic weather in the 360 version.

Missing cars on the 360 version.

Driveatars in the 360 version...I'm thinking no.\

/samegame

It's mgs 5 ps4 vs xbone then.

Still technically the same game.

I think you could have used a better word than "Technically". :p

Still a mulit plat.

*sad face*

Sony: Destiny is like a first party game for us.

You are too kind friend.

I still have it saved. Haven't used it much in a while. Maybe it's time.

MS: Lets open with COD and act like it's ours.

lol

You guys think it is time for a hype thread yet?

Launch trailer looks great, game is looking very good as well.

I thought it looked awesome but there was something in the back of my head saying "hmm, something's missing" aaaand then the car sounds kicked in, "ah, that's better!" Looks like a ton of fun, can't wait to go rallying in a Lamborghini.

Wow that trailer was pretty incredible. Day one

This game does indeed look epic, I can't wait!

Can't wait! Love my racers!

This game is looking really good as an all round product.

Still multiplat - oh please give it up

Xbox One has

been developed by a different team to Xbox 360

has loads more

looks miles better than 360 version

Next gen game on Xbox One.

An awesome looking OPEN GAME.

FH2 freight train vs DriveClub water sprinkler. Which one wins?

@tdkmillsy: I'll play by the rules here and let the spreadsheet show that it is a multiplat, but you are right...we all really know what's up ;)

I chuckled,

I'll go with a sprinkler on a freight train. :P

How about freight train in a rain storm?

@FastRobby: the guy who wrote that almost sounds like some of the guys I used to do league spec races with back on the 360 (when I had less kids and more time). They loved Forza Motorsport, but many of them wouldn't even consider Horizon and wrote it off for being "too arcadey" or because the music festival aspects didn't suit their tastes. Hell, I even gave my copy away to one guy and he still never played it (and he has a full Fanatec wheel setup).

Hopefully this time around the game gets more attention from those who didn't give the first game a chance. Based on the impressions I've been reading it looks like the review scores are going to force people to take notice.

I'll admit I skipped on Horizon, even with all the good things I heard about it. Not this time though, I am picking up the XB1 for this. I had originally planned to buy an XB1 sometime next year.

Will be buying this. Looks so fun.
