Forza Horizon 4 !
Discussion
I’ve got an S in one room, and an X in another, and I switch between them playing the same games depending on which room is available.
The X is noticeably faster in all aspects, booting up, loading games, transitions, etc. It’s not just the actual game, but stuff like Forza does run smoother on the X, and also in the case of Forza, has 4K textures available only to the X.
If I used it enough, I’d replace the S with another X.

My X is on a 4K tv. I’d agree, the extra cost is more of an issue if you’re not going to make use of the 4K.
But as said above, wheels aren’t a huge bonus in Forza Horizon particularly, as it’s designed for a pad. Maybe in Forza 7. I don’t play pure sim racing games, so never felt the need for a wheel. I’m strictly an arcade player.

I have a Fanatec CSR wheel that I used with the 360 and the first horizon a few years ago, which seemed to work pretty well. I agree that the games are more pad orientated so I wouldn't invest in it just for horizon, but it does open up opportunities for enhancing things like project cars, fm7 asseto Corsa etc.
I plan on getting a Logitech g290 at some point.

I've decided I want to pre order the ultimate edition, but I'd like the bond car pack (and drift pack etc.) it comes with the digital download from microsoft but will the bond pack come with a physical disc version from game for example? That version comes with the car pass so will you just automatically get all the cars as they become available anyway or is the bond pack a locked special bonus you would need to buy separately?

Looks like the Ultimate is the one you want.https://www.microsoft.com/en-GB/p/forza-horizon-4-...
Downloaded the demo and first impressions not bad and more enjoyable than the other Horizons.
Sense of speed can feel a bit off, such as at 150mph you're actually just doing an English road at 70mph but I spose that's the arcade bit.
Feel more connected to the road like Forza than the usual Horizon games.
Hate all the millennial party crowd b
ks but so far has promise overall.

Think I might buy this game, wished GT Sport had more uk hot-hatches etc.

Can't wait till Friday.
Anyone know if it is midnight on the dot?
Apparently, it's being released an hour before midnight. That said, others have said that previous online releases of Horizon have taken several hours to unlock e.g. 3-5am. As such, I've decided to take Friday off work to have some time to play it! FH4 seems fairly similar to FH3, which is only a good thing, imho. I'm looking forward to exploring the world!Anyone know if it is midnight on the dot?
My only concern with the XBox X is it's life expectancy. How long until it's replaced with something better? Rumour has it the PS5 will be released around 2020/2021 and as a result, I imagine Microsoft has something planned too. I've just bought a 4K television, so I'm tempted. However £400-450 for 2-3 years is ... not great.
Out of interest, if you have a digital copy of FH4, if you were to change to the XBox X, can you download the 'X' enhanced version for free?

Apparently they are working on the replacement, but it's not as if they'll switch off support for the One as soon as it comes out. Besides, launch is the worst time to buy a console as you get the early adopter problems, like the 360s that red ringed, or the Ones that you had to buy with Kinect and kept munching discs.Russian Troll Bot said:

I might skip the XB1X and upgrade to the XB1X2 at some point, and I'd probably have a 4k TV by then to go with it.
