Got 20 minutes of this in at ComicCon today, didn't want to be greedy and take up to much time. Was tempted to just pop the disc and run home but  :laugh:

 

Amazing. Best racing game of this gen yet. The extra year to polish a game instead of rushing for launch is really showing in this.

Easily my most anticipated XBox One game of the rest of the year, and in my Top 3 most anticipated games for all platforms.

Just wish they would release an adapter or something so I could use the Wireless Racing Wheel from the 360, as it was such a damn good wheel.

Crap!  Of course I have to be traveling this week.  When does the digital pre-order start?

 

Edit: OK, never mind.  Could someone confirm that this is the digital edition, not disc? https://store.xbox.com/en-US/Xbox-One/Games/Forza-Horizon-2-Day-One-Edition/4f6cbf74-adb2-48c2-90a2-69ffbfd8969a

 

2nd Edit:  What the hell, I ordered it.  The text on the page sure makes it sound like it's digital so I'll fight it out later if it turns out not to be.

Been playing the demo...it's INSANELY awesome, and looks even better than all those videos we have been seeing lately. It's just that good. WOW.

The demo is good. Damn good. However after reading the thread on Neogaf I expected to play the best video game of this year, and I never felt like that while playing the demo.

I am no doubt keeping my preorder, and I know I am going to absolutely enjoy playing this game, but I do feel like people are hyping the game up way to much based on what I have read so far.

I cannot help but think that people are hyping it up since the One has not really had a true killer app yet. But we will see.

Again I need to reiterate, I am absolutely looking forward to the full retail release. Hell I am even thinking of picking up a new wheel. But I was not blown away like I expected to be.

I'm not super big on racing games at all.  There is only 1 that I adore, and that's Burnout Paradise. 

 

But I must admit, I think FH2 may have gotten some GOTY votes.  It won't win, but I think some votes may come there way.  I was impressed with the demo, and I suck big time at it.

Microsoft is confident in Forza Horizon 2, and maybe you should be too.

Here we are a full two weeks from the release of Forza Horizon 2. Several things happened today which indicate that at the very least Microsoft is confident about the release of its Fall 2014 racer.

After the poor release handling of EA?s The Sims 4 and Activision?s Destiny, which to no shock released to lukewarm reviews, I am shocked by how far Microsoft has gone to make the release of Forza Horizon 2 as transparent as possible. While I know that not every game can be as prepared for launch as Forza Horizon 2 is, there have been far too many games in 2014 that have had veils cast in front of them before release, leaving unpleasant surprises for consumers. While it has resulted in high sales figures from pre-orders, especially in the case of Destiny which broke records with $500 million revenue, it?s also made consumers increasingly hesitant to buy games on day one.

An Early Demo: You Decide if You Like It
ForzaHorizon2_5.jpg

A demo released today for Forza Horizon 2. It?s available to anyone, no matter if they?ve pre-ordered the game or not. This is something that the well-received Bravely Default similarly did earlier in the year, and many gamers appreciated that.
Being able to experience the game first-hand lets you decide if it?s a game that suites your tastes. Forza Horizon 2 is a game built for racing fans, but it?s designed in such a way that makes it appealing to a wider audience than the simulative Forza Motorsport. That said, it?s not going to be a game that everyone enjoys. After all, everyone is different. Whether or not you think it looks good, you can try it out and rely on your own judgement rather than that of the press. If you happen to enjoy the demo, you?ll have full confidence in your pre-order.
As far as how good the demo is, I?d go as far as to say it?s one of the best in gaming history. It includes a captivating introduction, a substantial portion of the map, several races, a few cars to choose from, and as a result is a good taste of what?s to come later this month. Things are looking very positive if early reactions on social media and forums is anything to go by.

Review Copies: An Early Deployment
ForzaHorizon2_4.jpg

We received our review copy today, and so did numerous other outlets. That means we get ample time to dive into this open-world racing game and see what it?s all about. That puts less pressure on us to hit the embargo date, and be as thorough as possible.
In contrast, Destiny review copies were sent out the day prior to release. Activision?s reasoning was that it?s a game that thrives on the social experience. Well, guess what? Forza Horizon 2 has tons of multiplayer features, and you could argue it?s an important part of the experience as well.
In order to ensure that pre-release reviews of Forza Horizon 2 include insight into the social side of the game, Microsoft has setup a multiplayer session calendar. So, when reviewers such as myself feel the need to interact with others, we can get our fix. Little things like this go a long way.

Live Streaming: Sure, You Can Do That
ForzaHorizon2_2.jpg

Starting next Monday, press are encouraged to share an hour of gameplay live with gamers via Twitch. Although there are a few restrictions to avoid spoilers regarding car unlocks, this is simply unprecedented. I?ve been in games media for numerous years, and usually the only time live streaming is allowed prior to release is when you?re IGN or another one of the top five or so outlets, or if the live streaming embargo is a day or less before release.
Because of this, we?ll be setting up a live stream for Monday so that you, as the interested consumer, can see us playing the game to check out what it?s like after the introduction shown in the demo. There?s no walking into your purchase blindly.
 
The Big One: Embargo Before Release
ForzaHorizon2.jpg

 

Forza Horizon 2?s review embargo is Thursday, September 25th at 12:01 AM PDT. This means you?ll be able to read what many critics thought of the game nearly a full week before release. Microsoft isn?t hiding anything. You?ll see how this racer, which is one of several releasing this Fall season, has been received before it ever hits retailers.

The hype train has one really big flaw: you actually have to have a product that will live up to it. Admittedly, sometimes the hype gets out of control with fans and that is a little hard for companies to manage, but then again, when you consider some of the marketing language used it isn't hard to see how it happens.

 

I hope Forza Horizon 2 hits the mark.

I gave up on the demo about 3 minutes in, I really felt no love for it what so ever.

Just curious do you not like racing games? Cause it is really just a racing game at the end of the day.

 

Now with that said, I expected a lot more based on some comments I was reading on Neogaf, the hype train was in full effect there, but I still thought it was very solid.

 

My one and only complaint was I am used to driving either using cockpit view or first person view with no hood or anything else, and it is real easy during the races to get lost in the fields, etc. I know that is the entire point of the game itself, but this game is really a game where the default 3rd person view from behind the car is absolutely the best way to play.

I was able to get used to the cockpit and 1st person views eventually and place 1st in each race I did, but it was not necessarily as easy as it would have been otherwise.

 

Still a damn good game though and really looking forward to the retail version.

I love Forza and Codemasters F1 series, not a big fan of games like NFS, so yes I do like Racing games. I've bought FM 2 - 5 and even FH1 however FH1 I really didn't enjoy. I loved the demo, the intro to the game was amazing (I love the Porter Robinson song).

 

The reasons I didn't enjoy the demo I expect to be purely personal. Firstly the "race" to the festival site. Apart from its not actually a race, there are no positions, there is no limit to cars (that i could find) that you could over take. Don't give me a racing game where my very first encounter is race that I cannot win. The second thing that annoyed me was the cut scenes, real people and real cars. I really did not understand why they went this direction over using in game and CGI. The next thing was partly down to my lack of concentration, but it asks me to set a waypoint to a race, I do so and drive off. I picked the one furthest away which happens to go past one of the races. The game pretty much stops you still to explain how to join an even. I have no issue with some tips and guidance in a game at the beginning but I blindly followed it, placing me into the race I didn't want to do. At this point I'm starting to get a little annoyed that anyway but never mind, I'll do the off road race which is full of horrible, go between the two way point markers, miss a marker and you have to go back. I get you need to "punish" someone for missing the marker but on an off road race that is incredibly easy to slide past the punishment was a little too harsh imo.

 

At that point I had enough and it went off. I will be fair in that I entered the game with my mind pretty much set on what to expect so it was going to be difficult for me to enjoy this game, so maybe it never stood a chance. I don't really like the whole "street" nature that they have tried to inject into the Forza franchise, FM5 was a small disappointment when it came to the cars and tracks available so I personally feel they should be concentrating on the franchise I've loved since I firrst discovered rather than going after the arcade nature that I think Horizon tries to appeal to.

    • Newegg offers insane combo deal on Amazon Prime Day 2026 that beats Steam Machine

      Sadly "beats Steam Machine" isn't much of a brag.
    • An oversimplified explanations of Passkeys

      By +Warwagon · Posted

      Passkeys: Think of them like a broken heart necklace. Imagine one of those heart necklaces that breaks into two matching pieces. One person keeps one half, and the other person keeps the other half. With passkeys, the website has one half, and you have the other half. If the website gets hacked and someone steals its half, that stolen piece is useless by itself. It cannot unlock your account without your matching half. This particular heart necklace is one of a kind, there is only one in existence. Your half of the necklace has to be stored somewhere. It might be stored on your phone, tablet, computer, security key, or a password manager that can sync it between all your devices. A security key is a small physical device that you keep with you, kind of like a house key, car key, or flash drive. I would not usually recommend a security key as the first option for the average person. For most people, it is easier to use their phone, computer, or a password manager that can sync passkeys between their devices. A security key is more like a spare key you keep in a safe place, just in case you lose access to your other devices or your password manager. Some security keys plug into your computer. Some plug into your phone or tablet. Some get tapped against your device. The idea is simple: a security key can hold another passkey for the same website. Think of it like creating a second one-of-a-kind heart necklace for the same account. One necklace could be paired with your password manager, while another necklace could be paired with your security key. That means the website has more than one matching half on file. One half matches the passkey in your password manager. Another half matches the passkey stored on your security key. So, if you lose access to your phone, computer, or password manager, you would still be able to log in using the passkey stored on your security key. Think of it like keeping an extra special necklace piece on a tiny keychain, stored somewhere safe. The website still has the matching half for that security key, but your half is safely stored inside the little key. A passkey does not automatically exist on every device you own. It lives wherever you save it. If your half is stored on one device, then that device is the one that has the matching piece. For example, if you create the passkey on your Windows computer and it is only saved to that computer, your iPhone does not automatically have that same half. If you create it on your iPhone and it only stays on that iPhone, your Android phone does not automatically have it either. That is where password managers come in. A password manager can act like a protected jewelry box for your passkeys. Instead of your half of the necklace being locked to only one device, the password manager can securely sync that half to your other approved devices. For example, Apple Passwords and iCloud Keychain can sync passkeys between your Apple devices. Google Password Manager can sync passkeys with your Google account. But password managers such as 1Password and Bitwarden can sync passkeys between everything, your phones, tablets and computers. Now, you might ask: “What happens if I lose access to the device that has my passkey?” That depends on where your passkey was saved and what recovery options the website gives you. If your passkey was synced through a password manager, you may be able to sign in from another device that has access to that same password manager. For example, if your passkey is saved in iCloud Keychain, Google Password Manager, 1Password, or Bitwarden, another approved device may still have access to it. If your passkey was saved only on one phone, computer, or security key, and you lose that device, then you may not have your half of the necklace anymore. In that case, you would usually need to use the website’s backup login or account recovery options. A lot of websites that support passkeys still let you fall back to your regular password. So if you lose access to your passkey, the site may still let you log in with your password, a code sent to your email, a text message, a recovery code, or some other account recovery process. That is convenient, but it is also important to understand: if the website still allows password login, then your password still matters. Passkeys are safer than passwords, but if your account still has a password as a backup, you should still use a strong, unique password and turn on two-factor authentication if the website offers it. This is why it is a good idea to have more than one safe way back into important accounts. For example, you might keep your passkey in a syncing password manager, add a second trusted device, save recovery codes somewhere safe, or set up a backup security key. A passkey is very secure, but just like a real key, you need a backup plan in case you lose access to it. Now, you might ask: “What stops a hacker from copying my half of the necklace?” That’s the important part: your half is protected. It is not something you type in, and it is not something the website gets to keep. Think of your half as being locked inside a tiny safe on your phone, computer, security key, or password manager. That safe only opens when you approve it with your fingerprint, face, PIN, or device password. When you log in, the website does not need to see your half. It only needs proof that your half matches its half. Your actual half is not handed over to the website. This is different from a password. With a password, you type the secret into the website. If you type it into a fake website, the hacker now has it. With a passkey, you are not typing your secret into the website. Your device is proving you have the matching half without giving the half away. That also helps protect you from fake websites. If someone makes a fake login page that looks like the real site, your device can tell it is not the real match. It will not use your passkey there. Now, could someone use your passkey if they stole your device, got into your password manager, or somehow unlocked the safe that holds your half? Yes, that is why your device password, PIN, fingerprint, face unlock, and password manager security still matter. But a hacker cannot just steal your passkey from the website or trick you into typing it into a fake page like they can with a password. That is why passkeys are safer than passwords. The two matching pieces have to come together, like two lovebirds who were once separated and are finally reunited.

    • AMD confirms 26.6.2 FSR driver breaks on many Windows PCs

      By sphbecker · Posted

      I heard from a lot of people that driver support for the latest games when RDNA first came out (Radeon 5000 series) was pretty bad, but if you didn't buy the card on day one, or were not trying to play the latest titles, then you were isolated from that issue. Other than that, it's been good and only getting better.
