    Something the PC Masterrace will enjoy...here are some screenshots of the PC graphic settings for the game

    Apparently the default settings for FPS is for 30 or 60 only, but if you turn off V-Sync, the frame rate is unlocked completely, as you can see from this screen shot

    I'm surprised you haven't bought it yet. The pre-load for both Xbox One and PC is now available. They are both quite big downloads, in the region of 50GB each.

    Yeah, difficult to come up with >1k cash.


    I wonder though, I know PC and XB1 will be able to play together and co-op. But would an XBLive subscription have to be used to play on PC in order to play MP like you do with XB1.

    Nope, you do not need to have Xbox Live to play multiplayer on PC. You do need that for Xbox One though.

    Well that's great news, I can play MP on PC and not on XB1.

    Now to decide which version to get

    Excuse my ignorance, but how is Horizon different from Vanilla Forza? ie How would Horizon 3 be different from (the future) Forza 7 (except for graphics)?

    Forza is broken into two different focused racing games; Forza Motorsport and Forza Horizon.

    Forza Motorsport is focused on creating a driving simulation experience, with realistic car handling and grip mechanics across real world closed circuits. The game focuses on circuit racing as it's core. This is why the tone is more serious than normal driving games

    Forza Horizon is more of a fun loving game, where the focus is on exploration and pure driving pleasure. The game does not have set real world circuits, but rather a large open world map, where you can drive on different surfaces. The game is much more laid back, and it shows even in it's mechanics. The game lends a lot of driving mechanics from Forza Motorsport, but it is not as serious or an accurate simulation like FM is. The game is therefore considered to be more arcadey. There is however still the distinct Forza feel.

    Forza 7 will, when it is released, focus on tightening the real world racing aspect of the game, becoming more and more an accurate simulation, and Horizon 3 is more for dicking around.

    In short, Forza Motorsport = Michael Schumacher. Forza Horizon = Jeremy Clarkson

    Ah cool, thanks for the explanation. This does make the game sound pretty damn enticing. Who doesn't like a good Clarkson session?

    Nice way of putting it.



    Otherwise it's like GranTurismo vs Need for Speed.
