Hey guys, we have opened a dedicated area for Forza Horizon.

Forza Horizon is not Forza Motorsport, and as such we should treat them as different games.

Enjoy!

I'll put this out there, does the Horizon ad on during the V8's make anybody else want to unpreorder the game?

I would doubt very highly it would actually include V8 supercars.

Just saw the horizon ad, The one where the car talks on the phone? Yeah stupid... While it looks pretty, it didn't call out to me any more than a job offer to clean public toilets

I do not think Horizon will get any (or very many) race cars. All cars would have to be road legal in some country to qualify for the game.

Keep the V8 Supercars on the track where they belong. They have another year to give us the other two cars and at least one track to run them on in FM5.

No race cars will not change my decision on Horizon. All I can say is that FM4 will not be put on the shelf yet. Both will get their share of play time.

The reference wasn't to the lack of race cars, I'm a drifter before a racer and feel I was probably one of the most looking forward to the open world style Forza. I was talking about the really shonky looking ad that's gettting played on the telecast compared to the ones on youtube.

Their PR/Advertising departments need a shake up by the look of it.

I am going to have to stop skipping the ads... Have not seen it yet, or maybe we don't get he ad here in QLD.

No Horizon ads here on the Mid North Coast NSW... Just a few big names and plenty of shonky local ads.

And Waffelz, I expect to see plenty of pics and vids of your cars with their rears hanging out smoking up the open road.

The Horizon ad looked terrible. Did not want me to go out and buy it at all.

I have a review copy inbound, but can't say anything about the game until after the media embargo is lifted. Sorry, but it's a condition of the non-disclosure agreement.

Those on my Friends list may see me playing the full game a little early though. Wink

I will check the NDA when the game arrives but they usually restrict publishing any info until the day of release.

This game has a decent sound track. And by decent i mean very very promising. Haven't sat down and listened to the whole thing, but the first 5 artists were all top-notch.
PI has been tweeked yet again. Not sure about upgrades as is not in the demo. will give it a good spanking tomorrow night

There are only 3 decent songs:
R U Mine - Arctic Monkeys
Lonely Boy - The Black Keys
Walking on a Dream - Empire of the sun
The rest is absolute rubbish!

The Demo feels alright but is to short to have a decent opinion of the game. My biggest thing so far is, Why put dirt roads in if they have the same grip level as tarmac roads Suspect

Yes they are.

sorry - I haven't even played the demo or looked at the track listing, just thought I'd continue the argument pointlessly. ;-)

The bit about no change in grip over dirt is slightly worrying though. I was looking forwards to causing carnage in a Lancia Group B on the dirt.

The Beta is awesome, loved the music, three different stations, kinda pinched that from GTA lol, but, it does have a real Need For Speed feel to it, Although I am glad you can actually smash up your car at all times, I thought from the start that you where invulnerable, but as the car slowly started to deform and fall apart from multiple near misses and rail bashing it became a lot more realistic. Awesome so far can't wait to play the real thing.

Yeah I found that a little worrying as well, go belting off the tarmac onto dirt with no seemingly change of pace or grip, I hope that's just because they couldn't put everything into the beta so as not to give to much away to early. I'll Also add, when it turns to night, very awesome! it looks so good!

^ not a smart move if this is the case. get everyone excited about dirt tracks and then just 2weeks before the release of the game bring out a demo featuring dirt track with no grip loss or dirt flying. way to lose the appeal of the people looking forward to that part of it.

I know its not forza motorsport and went into the demo with an open mind. Now just left thinking ts need for speed. at least i can have cop chases in need for speed. imo tdu 2 was more enjoyable and it was flawed.

Glad i didn't preorder , and if i had id swap the credit over onto the new nfs. Glad there's other big games i want more coming out very soon.
