Seems like a dull topic unless you have experienced Forza 5’s menus. Load times are still ludicrously long but man those menus look so nice.

Been playing horizon 2 at a friends place and I'm so damn close to buying an XB1...

I say go for it. Microsoft are desperate for a user base and the deals and bundles are becoming ridiculous.

The deals are good but since I already have a PS4 and would basically use the XB for Forza Halo etc, I want it closer to £200 than £300.

What about 2nd hand?

I tend to avoid 2nd hand where possible to be honest. I’d only be set to save a little money buying that way anyway. I imagine one day the temptation will take over and I'll just buy one new.

As a developer... Menus are always something that interests me because so many people do it so horribly! Forza 5 really messed up a good thing from 4. Really my biggest gripe with 5. Yes it was a smaller game, less tracks, less cars but the racing is so much better (and worth it). But that the menus are slower, klunkier, and less intuitive is infuriating!

Na I use it all the time and all of my friends are on PSN. I love the PS4, I just really want to play some of the xbox exclusives.

What's so bad about Forza load times? I guess waiting forever for Project Cars to NOT WORK makes me think FM5 load times are normal

I’m not really a gamer, I mean I have had Atari, NES, SNES, N64, Gamecube, Wii, PS, PS2, Dreamcast, Xbox... But then I just got out for a long while (~5 years) and got back in because I missed Forza. Gran Turismo was OK, but Sega GT and Froza were both better.
I can’t say there are any PS games I would care to own over Forza, but I get it. I’d just tell all your friends to upgrade to a XBone so you can all play Forza 6- 9 (probably). If they don’t do it, they aren’t real friends :D

Haha PS4 has some great exclusives too, but they don’t have a driving game of Forza’s caliber.

I fire up Destiny all the time just because of how amazing the UI is.

I’m sure there are, I just have no idea what they’d be! Probably better I keep it that way, I have no need for another console and I already have too many money-sucking hobbies!

I get that haha. I’m terrible for impulse buying games consoles, I currently have a mega drive, gameboy colour, ps3, ps4, ps vita. All of those were bought randomly on impulse.

I personally never had an issue with the menu load times because the quality of the game makes up for it. Forza 5 though, that was a mess.

True. Forza 6 though is shaping up to be the best in the series though. As we’re getting closer to release, my hype meter is reaching critical mass. I need to LS swap a Vandura and drive a wet Spa.

Can’t argue with that. Some great new tracks, a huge and well picked car list, and even better dynamics (driving and environment). I wish I pre-ordered it already.
I have the Vandura in FM4, it's hilarious to take around the track.
