Haven't done the first part but I made sure to check the power settings and enable auto sign-in
Didn't realize when I closed the Forza demo I lose all my progress...so I started over and now I just leave it running with my xbone in standby! Can boot right back up and start running down fences again

Anybody know if the game is getting localized GPS voice this time around? Here in Norway they had the commentator and GPS voice in Norwegian.

Wasn't that bad it just hurt some feelings, sending the DC thread into brainstorming for retaliation.
I'm clueless about car upgrades and whatnot(just do auto upgrades in games)
Can you tell me the advantage of increasing weight is please?
You are right guys, I have the Day 1 cars with my Amazon pre-order, plus an RS4.
VIP pass it is then!

I'm so mad that my Xbox one just decided to stop reading discs after an update -_- Now I gotta wait for repairs to play ;-[

Or go digital.

Lol true but the rest of my games are discs.

Does it matter though?
Forza is a good game to have digital anyway because you will probably always go back to it every once in a while... At least until Horizon 3 comes out.

I pity the foo, who can't wake up from an excellent sleep, turn on their Xbox and play games without leaving the comfort of their bed.
Getting up to take out a disc, find a case, put that disc in a case, find another case, put the disc from that case into the console......when all you wanted to do was just play a quick game of titanfall, before breakfast.........but then you get an invite fro a friend to play some battlefield..........so you gotta get up, take out the titanfall disc, find where you just chucked the case, put it back in, get the battle field case, put the disc from that case in the console...........oh. He's' not even in game any more and he's just started playing titanfall cause it took you forever to join him in bf4?
Seriously? On a Saturday morning?
Nah son......nah........uh uh...nope.

Cool. At least I can deal with the classical station.

I generally listen to music on headphones anyways because I'm the only guy that likes progressive death metal.

Decreasing weight. By 'go heavy' he means focus on weight reduction first
hah, go heavy in regards to weight must have confused me.
I have it preordered in the US store since I have US$ on my account. You can play the game then just fine on the 30th when you have set your console to USA region. Switching back to germany will show the game as unavailable (until switching back, or the 3rd).
Not sure about paypal, buy digital US MS points and redeem then via the console while set to USA. That's what I do now.

You need to add a new credit card with a fake USA address while your Xbox location is set to USA. PayPal doesn't work it seems as your address on your pp account will be your German address.
Must resist.
Must.
Resist.
I do NOT want a Bone, but maaaaaaan, this game is like a siren on the rocks, enticing me towards certain death.
Ten times more appealing to me than any other current-gen game out there.
In the souls of the people the grapes of Ralph are filling and growing heavy, growing heavy for the vintage.

Don't forget the 360 version.
True, not worth 300 squid though.

Its the equivalent of getting the 360 at launch without the HD, almost the same........but not.

While it does look like FH2 is getting universal praise, and i do think reviewers will have a hard time finding things to complain about, 94 metacritic is insanely high.
Q: Is the 360 version coming the same day ? i can't believe they didn't show us anything at all.

I'm going with Lukas Japonicus's prediction 88-90.

It requires effort not to.
I did that before and my CC provider disabled my card because of suspicious transactions. No - I won't do that. Any idea where I can get US MS Spacebucks without any hassle?

Apart from weather it pretty much has all the important features of the game, I'm sure it'll be great.

My prediction:
85 - 87%
Complaints could be:
- location not as varied as Colorado
- tries to much too be cool
- story/festival atmosphere/hipster cutscenes
I still expect it to be the highest rated racing game this fall.

I was planning on picking up the 360 version too.
Lack of media and talk about makes me a bit worried for it.

That it is, but I'm going to go out on a limb and say that I expect a 90+ average, as is the norm for the Forza series. The first Horizon was a spin-off that wasn't fully understood by many at the time, and Forza 5 was a launch game lacking in content, and with some questionable design/monetization choices. This should be the return to form, and I think that more reviewers will recognize Horizon for what it is this time around.
That depends on your definition of important features. I fully expect Sumo to do a great job with it, and I'm certainly double dipping some time next year, but after the demo and all the positive previews, it's hard to imagine a scenario in which Playground's game won't run circles around the 360 version.
I'm in the UK and buying them from target.com
Pay by paypal and get them emailed to you within 4 hours.
Been working no problem for me.

In this case, lack of media probably means it looks too good and might hurt xbone sales

Oh. Mine did it too. Just asked me to send them a text to let them know it was me and then never asked ever again.
When you eventually decide to give in, I'm going to create a thread.. "Mascot finally buys the Xbox One", in celebration of the momentous event..
