I had been skeptical of this, but recent reviews have made me revise my opinion. I think it will be worth a try. I've got a racing seat and wheel combo that I use for GT5 and Forza 4 and the open road game play will be awesome if they don't mess up the physics.

Thats a shame, would love to see a picture of a xbox eating monster cat, but well....

Anyway, still strange you killed that many xbox in such a short time, I've got my 2nd xbox since launch in 05, and the current one still looks healthy.

Coming back to topic, I've preordered Forza Horzion aswell and think its going to be a mix of Forza and NFS. As long as they take the Physics from Forza, and the "livestyle" from NFS I'm happy with that

I don't understand what you get in the collectors edition. Is it 10 extra cars? And what is the VIP thing?

just played the demo...

physics is pretty good IMO, not perfect, but nowhere near arcade like. It definitely felt more Gran Turismo 3 on sports tires this time around, than FM4 or GT5.

The game seems well thought of, being more car culture than, than racing.

I loved the day to night time transitions,

I wish the multi-player feature was turned on for the demo, so open world seem more engaging.

Wish Photomode was turned on to get a better handle of the feature.

Honest Conclusion;
The demo didn't make me want to get the game, which is a shame, I felt the demo gave me more NFS experience than a new open world experience.

I still might pick up the game regardless of how unsatisfied i am based on the demo. It didnt excite me like FM4 did.

In the end, Ill still be hoping and waiting for a game to give me what i really want, which is Tokyo Extreme Racer + GT5 physics + FM4 styling.

I got to play the demo for literally two minutes during lunch. Anxious to go home and devour the rest of it tonight.

Oh yeah, I remember Tokyo Extreme Racer for Dreamcast. First game I got for it. Haven't played anything quite like it since. I can still hear that cheesy music when challenging someone by flashing your lights. /Nostalgia.

Holy crap I love the demo. It's like NFS Hot Pursuit, but improved 10 fold. The festival/culture, mixed with the open online world, and the great balance of physics make this very highly anticipated by me.

Needless to say I can't wait to take the FR-S around Colorado

Finished L.A. Noire last night while I was waiting for Forza Horizon demo to finish downloading. Once it was done I switched over to that and couldn't put down the controller.

I liked the presentation that had that tuner/rally vibe, the graphics were on par, the game play sort of reminded me, but not entirely, of NFS's and SRS's games joining forces with Forza's correction though.

The demo has given enough evidence for me to decide to pre-order the game today.

I made a video showing how the Day and Night transitions work.
