Some details on the Forza 2 demo coming this week possibly

Remember we told you that a Forza 2 demo was in the works? Well, it seems said demo could well be with us this week – possibly even tomorrow.

The French portion of the interweb has been buzzing with reports that the demo will be going live as soon as the game has gone gold (ie has passed certification and is cleared for production), which could be as early as tomorrow, although whether the recent delay to Forza 2 will change that remains to be seen.

A friend just sent me this picture, what's that about :o

Image looks like your friend made it to me.

I really think your friend is just trying to play a joke.

Hopefully I am wrong.

"Well, in regards to the Forza 2 demo. I still don't have an answer. As of today's emails, the demo was still in the hands of our certification dept. They're expediting it through the process but it's not out of the woods yet. We should have a firm idea when you can expect the demo by early next week. Basically, once it passes cert, throwing it up on Marketplace shouldn't take more than a couple days. Of course, being a Microsoft n00b, none of you should take my conjecture as gospel, but I'm doing my best here to give you an honest answer. I want y'all to play the demo just as much as you do -- if nothing else, it'll give the forums something else to talk about. Also, once the demo releases, I'll see if we can do some fun little hotlap contests for some no-prizes. Please be patient. The demo is coming 'round the bend. So close I can almost smell the burnt rubber."

i found a source i do believe... check this out

unfortunatly it look as if this has been out since last week... :( the wait continues

Good detective work. (Y)

Don't think he made it, he doesen't know a word of English.

He said he got it from an Xbox Community site, but he always sends me something and won't tell his sources =P

Was hoping a Neowin member knew.

Indeed, your friend did not make it. Just a really poor designer did. ;)

if that wasnt the most contradictory thing ive ever heard....

"its green lighted, here it comes"

"when?"

"when its green lighted"

If you mean Spartan, don't listen to him =P The last time he actually had some useful information we didn't already know was about never :laugh: ;)

"its green lighted, here it comes"

"when?"

"when its done" (given the green light)

we all might as well quit speculating, the bastards are gunna release when we all leeeassst expect it

green lighted cert process, not what comes after that! :rolleyes:

Don't you go all game developer on me! :happy:

why not? :devil:

and when was the last time you posted "useful information we didn't already know"? :p

What seems more important from Spartan's point of view, leaking some information to the Neowin community or keeping his job that allows him to eat, pay rent, pay his bills and pay for his car(or bike).

Oh god, can't even say anything as a joke before everyone crawls out from beneath the rock to throw a bit of "Mature wisdom" at you.

It was a joke, relax.

were supposed to get some grand new demo information here in the next 12 hours about Forza 2

im quite excitied, maybe well even be able to play it today now that the update is out

Don't get your hopes up man, I have pretty much given up hope for the demo. Got it pre-ordered and it's out in 2 weeks, I will be able to drool over it once we get it in at GameStop and then be tormented even more :p

    • Nothing Ear (a) and CMF Buds Pro 2 with active noise cancellation drop to lowest price ever by Fiza Ali With Prime Day 2026 scheduled to run from Tuesday 23 to Friday 26 June, Amazon has already begun rolling out early access offers ahead of the main event. Particularly, Nothing Ear (a) and CMF Buds Pro 2 wireless earbuds have dropped to their lowest price ever with limited Prime deal offering 33% and 24% discounts, respectively. Nothing Ear (a) are equipped with 11mm dynamic drivers featuring a PM1 + TPU diaphragm. For noise control, the earbuds offer active noise cancellation (ANC) of up to 45dB across frequencies reaching 5,000Hz. The smart ANC algorithm adapts to surrounding noise levels, while a Transparency Mode allows users to remain aware of their environment when needed. Connectivity is handled via Bluetooth 5.3, with support for AAC, SBC, and LDAC audio codecs. Additional features include IP54-rated earbuds for dust and splash resistance, paired with an IPX2-rated charging case. Furthermore, users also benefit from pinch controls, in-ear detection, Google Fast Pair, Microsoft Swift Pair, dual-device connectivity, and a low-latency mode designed for gaming and video playback. The Nothing X app unlocks a range of customisation options, including a personalised equaliser, bass enhancement, control remapping, ear tip fit testing, firmware updates, dual-device management, a Find My Earbuds feature, and low-latency mode settings. When it comes to the battery, the earbuds house a 46mAh lithium-ion battery, while the charging case contains a 500mAh cell. With ANC disabled, users can expect up to 9.5 hours of playback from the earbuds and up to 42.5 hours in total with the charging case. With ANC enabled, battery life is rated at up to 5.5 hours per charge and up to 24.5 hours combined with the case. Finally, fast charging is also supported that should provide up to 10 hours of playback from a 10-minute charge with ANC turned off. Nothing Ear (a) Wireless Earbuds (Black): $53.20 (Amazon US) - 33% The CMF Buds Pro 2 feature a dual-driver audio system consisting of an 11mm bass driver and a 6mm micro-planar tweeter. The earbuds use PU (polyurethane) and PET (polyethylene terephthalate) titanium-coated diaphragms and are tuned by Nothing to deliver balanced audio performance. They further support active noise cancellation of up to 50dB across a frequency range of up to 5,000Hz, and noise control features include a Smart ANC algorithm, Adaptive ANC, Transparency Mode, and Clear Voice Technology 2.0. For calls, the CMF Buds Pro 2 use a total of six microphones and feature an environmental noise-cancelling algorithm, Clear Voice Technology 3.0, and Wind Noise Reduction 3.0 that should improve voice clarity during conversations. Furthermore, when it comes to the connectivity, it is provided through Bluetooth 5.4. Additional features include an IP55 rating for dust and water resistance, Google Fast Pair, Microsoft Swift Pair, in-ear detection, a low-latency mode, and a Find My Earbuds function. Moreover, through the Nothing X app for Android and iOS, users can access custom EQ settings, a bass enhancement algorithm, customisable controls, Find My Earbuds, low-latency mode, dual-device connectivity, an ear tip fit test, and firmware updates. The earbuds contain a 60mAh rechargeable lithium-ion battery, while the charging case houses a 460mAh battery. A full charge of the earbuds and case via USB-C should take approximately 85 minutes, while the earbuds alone should be fully recharged in the case in around 60 minutes. Battery life is rated at up to 11 hours of playback on a single charge and up to 43 hours with the charging case when ANC is turned off. With ANC enabled, playback time is reduced to up to 6.5 hours on the earbuds and up to 26 hours with the charging case. Talk time is rated at up to 6 hours on the earbuds and 25 hours with the case with ANC disabled, or up to 4.8 hours and 18.6 hours, respectively, with ANC enabled.
