I have started a Google Drive Document to keep track of everyone who is down to join the Forza Horizon 2 Neowin Club.

 

Click Here to access the document and add your name to the list.

We can figure out who will actually put the club together in a few days once we have the names of everyone who is down.

Since you guys were umming and ahhing over an official topic, I decided to merge a few of the most recent topics into one :P

 

DL is taking care of the club sign ups by the looks of it. Someone still needs to put it together & send out invites.

 

I'll beef up the OP when I get time.

I just preordered the rich people edition with the car pass but I wont get to play until Friday. Hopefully being a Forza veteran will net me some bonus credits.

 

I got some old pay and got the 99 version to... 

I'm in the UK so won't be able to play till Friday but down for some races.

Put myself on the document.

 

Shadow of Mordor on friday as well! Good week for gaming.

 

When is the actual launch day ? US and EU ?

 

since my console is still set to US, but I was thinking ot changing it since I was considering renting some movies on xbox video, and that one uses my account and says I can't rent with my xbox location :p like the old 360 ui it also auto displays everythgin in Norwegian wich is annoying when every language setting is set to English.

Just watched the 20 min gameplay video from further up and it has me even more excited. 

 

Never really been a fan on racing games online portion but I will definitely be partaking for this game.

Can't wait, wonder how Bestbuy handles preorders and pickups.

Youll get an email from them saying when it is ready for pick up. Usually the night before they send it.

 

So someone else is definitely going to have to set up the club once the game is released as I am not sure I will have the game tomorrow. I ordered directly from MS since they had a deal for a $10 Live gift-card, and I just got the email this morning at 6AM it has shipped, but no indication of shipping speed. Good news is when I have ordered from the MS Store in the past it usually comes quick, however there is no indication in this email if I am going release day delivery, etc., so just not sure I will have the game tomorrow or not.

Ha!  That's why mine is preloaded and waiting on my hard drive for the magic hour...  :fun:

 

I don't mind setting up the club but I wonder about its "leadership."  I don't know if the person that sets it up is considered the leader or can hand it off to someone else...

Yep, I did get an email from them saying it'll be ready for pick up tomorrow. It's the first game I have pre-ordered for a console. When you join a club, do you need Live Gold? I don't really play online, but it'd be nice to get into that.

You probably won't need Gold to join a car club, but to get the most out of it and get involved with the online events, a Gold sub is a must.

The only games I have gone digital this generation are DriveClub and The Evil Within. DC was $49 and The Evil Within was $53. And the only reason I went with them is I still had credit sitting in my Sony account from gift cards from last Xmas and there was a decent enough savings when doing so.

Otherwise I will always stick to the retail version. Always better deals, and more importantly I can always trade them in, which I do quite often.

With that said, this is one game I probably should have gone digital, but that $10 gift card was too good to pass up.

    • Gemini in Google Sheets can now help you debug and fix formula errors

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      Gemini in Google Sheets can now help you debug and fix formula errors by David Uzondu Google has started rolling out an update to Gemini in Google Sheets that allows the AI to diagnose and fix formula errors in one click, as long as your Workspace admin has Gemini for Workspace in Sheets turned on. According to Google, the new feature can handle pretty much everything from basic arithmetic to very complex calculations. This ability to debug formula errors comes about two years after Google introduced basic formula generation with Gemini in Sheets. To create a formula with Gemini in Sheets, you open a spreadsheet on your computer and click Ask Gemini in the top right corner. You can also enter an equals sign in any cell and use a shortcut like Ctrl + Alt + G on Windows and Chrome OS, or Command + Ctrl + G on macOS. Once you open the side panel, you write a natural language prompt using your sheet references. For example, you can ask Gemini to divide goals by games, or to find cell C1 in range D:G. If for some reason, the formula Gemini generated doesn't work, or maybe you wrote the formula yourself, you can troubleshoot the issue directly inside the grid. When a cell shows an error message, you hover over it and click "Fix". This action opens the side panel where Gemini analyzes the data structure and automatically applies the fixes when they are ready. You can cancel the process at any time by clicking stop in the side panel. Image via Google Google has been pushing its Gemini integration in Google Sheets for a while now, steadily moving AI features from side panels directly into user spreadsheets. Last year, the Mountain View giant shipped an =AI() Function in Sheets that allowed users to run translation and text generation directly inside cells instead of using the side panel interface. Earlier this year, the company announced that Gemini in Sheets had reached near-human expert performance, achieving a 70.48% success rate on the SpreadsheetBench dataset.
    • It's about to become harder to turn off your Samsung TV, thanks to Instagram

      I get what you are saying, If i go onto the Instagram site, it says log in with Facebook, but they are not allowed to link my account with Instagram until I do that. Maybe in the U.S, they can link them, but Privacy is not a thing in the U.S. the way things are going,l won;t be any better in the U.K.

    • AI is indeed eliminating jobs, and Oracle just proved it

      By leonsk29 · Posted

      Exactly, this is just the beginning. I hope that by that time, our inept politicians devise something like a Universal Basic Income, because unemployment and poverty rates will skyrocket otherwise. And believe me, robots that perform physical work aren't a matter of IF, but WHEN. No career is truly safe from AI/robots, it's just a matter of time.
