    Some more info about the game here.

    This is one game I can't wait to get my hands on.

    looks incredible, the chinook dropping in your friends car into your race is a really cool way of handling it.

    I've never been a big car game fan but thought Horizon 2 was brilliant.

    Can't wait to get this. Probably the game I'm looking forward to most this year.

    FH2 is a beautiful looking game and very enjoyable too. FH3 looks amazing and I'm sure I will enjoy it just as much as I did with FH2.

    No Porsches mentioned which means it'll probably be bloody DLC again. Pain in the hoop!

    Well there are 200 more cars to come so hopefully some Porsche's will be in the game when it's released.

    The Toyota FJ40. That will do nicely for driving on rough terrain.

    Updated car list here.

    i see the recommended specs got released, 12Gb ram. looks like the 8gb most people have been running is no longer going to be the sweetspot

    also, was thinking of buying teh version that supports both windows 10 and xbox, it's not cheap though, 80gpb on amazon for the ultimate version

    I thought you have to buy the digital version to have access to the W10 version too?(oops nevermind your talking about getting the code from amazon)

  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 8,766 Mod ✭✭✭✭mossym

    Nice to hear an Irish accent in the game


  • Registered Users Posts: 58 ✭✭fataleight


    Am I missing something but how do you unlock the online play ? When I try to open it it just says "keep playing the game to unlock" I guess you have to get to a certain level or something which could take a while because I'm not very good :)

    Not sure but I've already seen guys on my friends list actually the 1st thing I was told to do was find someone and do a head to head but I think it was scripted and just used his gamertag.

    I like it uses your real name.


  • Posts: 15,661 [Deleted User]


    Oh wow the Kinect support really works well likely works with a head set too but haven't tried it, you just say Anna and then yes or no to what she suggests.


  • Registered Users Posts: 58 ✭✭fataleight


    Game tags from my friends list were popping up on a load of different cars so I guess it just gets them from whoever is on line at the time.

    The Irish accent is a nice touch and for once it's not the " Hollywood Irish" lol

    It didn't take long.
    Just follow the "guided tour": you do a showcase, a race, a drift thing, a jump thing, and raise enough points to select a second horizon festival location. After that, you can play online, but you're limited to the one race, I think.

    Quite a good bit of content in the demo. It's good to see that level of confidence in the game from the devs.

    No it doesn't, I found that out the hard way too. I played it up to the point of unlocking online play had to leave for an hour and when I restarted it went right back to the start :(
