All I want is a full Forza 6 for Windows 10 with universal wheel support. If not, then the next Forza.

I'll be going on a little rant here, so bare with me:

I've had it with these stupid consoles and I'm ready to throw them to the dumpster. First, I wanted to watch a movie but my PS4 won't recognize the controllers anymore, even with USB cable (thank god I still have a PS3).

Now my Xbox One is coming up with some nonsense about my controller not pairing up with my profile, so I can't access the store to buy the NASCAR DLC or browse online liveries in FM6. REALLY?! Why does the controller need to pair up with my PROFILE!!! Now it goes into an eternal loop telling me that there is no controller associated with the current profile, even though I only have one controller and one profile... These are dark days we live in...

I Fully agree :) Consoles are too tech nowadays, but...

If they weren't, no-one would be using them at all. Graphics
 
@RacerPaul the only purpose I find for consoles is exclusives. but now the Xbox is migrating them to PC, rendering the console obsolete. If Sony does that then the PS will be irrelevant as well. With a good PC, games run and play a lot better anyway.
 
Don't console manufacturers eventually make profit from consoles sales after their initial loss?!

If so making them obsolete is kind of counter productive isn't it?

Sure most sales and profit come from games and accessories but honestly no one in their right mind is going to buy a surface pro 4 to play the latest games on it! (I certainly hope not!)

Plus Sony PC's are dead in the water!!

Neither company is going to make any money from PC hardware sales if gaming consoles were slowly fazed out, I can't see that happening as new consoles have recently been announced.

Unless I am totally mistaken! ;)

Sony have said they always said they made money from the ps4 console day one.

It would make reasonable sense given whats in the ps4... it seems to be the box itself, power cable, controller, headset and hdmi cable (I believe).

Microsoft just has more stuff in their SKU, psu, used to be kinect etc.

If you look at the ps3/xbox 360, I believe they are $199 now? After 10 yrs?

If they are making money it wouldnt be much.
 
Information on the next Forza title is expected to be revealed tomorrow evening during Microsoft's E3 briefing, presumably Forza Horizon 3 on Xbox and PC.

Although Forza Motorsport 6 was a good game content-wise, I did have some issues which ultimately made me quit playing and as such prevent future titles from being an insta-buy.

I've got a bunch of questions that I am hoping to have answered before the next title releases, going to mark them down here for now and update as info becomes available.

Other than damage, I doubt it.

Gifting and auction has been repeatedly stated not to be coming back because glitchers and hackers.
 
According to leaked photos Xbox will be getting Xbox Clubs. Perhaps we could have our own GTPlanet Club.

I started playing the game in my mid-twenties. It's been a decade, and I still enjoy it immensely - THE go-to car game on the One.

And 600 cars on launch? Drat... you can expect bugs, engine sound inaccuracies, physics anomalies perhaps etc.
 
Why? Forza 6 launched with 460 and according to wiki at least there is 142 cars available from DLC...

Then if they add 50 or so threw the life of FH3... Closer to 700 then 600.
 
So, um, nearly what, 3 years after the original XB1 release and more than 9 months after FM6's release, I'll finally have my own XBone this week. My youngest son's health is finally improving, after years of on and off medical researches and treatments that were both stressful and costly, we're finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel, and with two young ones eager to try on the new gen, I think we'll have a lot of fun.

I know I've been a pretty vocal part of this forum since the release without even owning the game, but I knew it was just a matter of time before I joined the lot. Looking forward to the experience... sometimes it's worth the wait.

They can't have any of the race cars in Horizon, so keep that in mind. I'm expecting 450 cars at launch, maybe 500.

I don't think I've seen you talk about the health issues your youngest faced, so just wanted to say it's good to hear things are on the up. 👍

It's definitely worth it. The game isn't perfect, but it (and FH2) are a whole lot of fun. Looking forward to seeing you online!
 
Horizon 3 is in Australia? Looks very cool! I just hope that the career isn't as long and monotonous as FH2 or FM6 (not including the showcases). We're getting a lot more customization options for cars, which is great, but I wonder how many cars you can customize beyond the Forza aero? And Animals as well? It's an interesting choice to add them into the game, because I wonder how many people will try and hit them...

In any case, I will be picking up the new Horizon in September. it looks like a ton of fun! Can't wait to learn more about the game in the near future.
