Just played the demo and I am stoked! The graphics are sick on the Xbox One! I've got the ultimate edition pre-ordered. Thought I'd make a thread for this. Who's getting this? What's your platform preference (Xbox or PC) since this is Play Anywhere?
Can't wait to play this in HDR!
The Forza Horizon games are a social arcade style racing game. Who's played any of the Test Drive games? It's like that but better. Each game is based in a different location where you can explore and race in different events. This year it's Australia. With Xbox live, you can sync your friends drivatars which is an AI that mimics their driving habits and race them in events to get the best time. Or, you have to option to really go online and and race your friends in real time or just explore with them. Progression is simple, keep racing and earn credits to get new cars. Cars have customization such as tuning and cosmetics. Designs can be transferred from other Forza games so you don't lose all of that hard work on producing an A&M logo. Clubs are a cool feature where you can team up with friends like TexAgs and earn reputation to boost your club in the world leaderboard.
FYI Xbox Play Anywhere allows you to buy an Xbox game and get it on both platforms (Xbox and PC) without having to pay for each system. XPA allows cross saves so you can pick up where you left off from Xbox to PC or PC to Xbox. Power hungry? Then play the game the way it was meant to be run on the PC in true 4K. You can also play with your friend's between platforms (I'm sure there will be restrictions from mouse and keyboard for some games.) Chat with friends in party on the Xbox app for Windows 10.
