I haven’t bought a game in a couple years now, so I figured I would treat myself since my birthday is on the 3rd.

I pre-ordered the Ultimate Edition yesterday since it was just easier to go that route. I’m really looking forward to this game. So with that said, are any other Oppo’s getting it?

I have an order in place on the ultimate edition as well. Looking forward to playing when it unlocks on Friday.

I was woken up in the middle of the night when my Xbox came roaring to life to download the bloody thing.

Haven’t yet but it was in my weekend plans. Playing a lot of Horizon 3 lately. Hardly been on Forza 6 in past 3 months.

Nice. I’ll have to wait till after work Friday to play but I am looking forward to it.

Understandable. That’s on my list of things to get eventually.

It’s fun to drive around in, though the AI difficulty gets a little borked if you set it high enough. Cars will magically catch up and then runaway with the lead.

Its arcade instead of simulator but very fun once you get into it. It has points for destructive behavior, so when I have a bad work day its a great stress reliever.

I preordered through Wal-Mart because they had a really good deal.

Cant help but feel its just re-hash of Forza 6. Plus I think my car got cut.

Yep. I got pre-ordered the Ultimate Edition through Gamestop. It comes with a cool 1/43 scale model of the GT2 RS. Until then, I’ve been trying to complete some achievements in Horizon 3 so I can level up in the Forza Hub and get those extra rewards, lol. I can’t wait for Friday!

Yeah I saw that. I’m torn between giving the car to my stepson or bringing it to work. I’m horrible lol. I didn’t realize the Ultimate Edition came out earlier than the regular until I did my pre-order so was excited about that too.

Well, this is definitely not a toy, lol. It’s a nicely detailed model. No opening doors or anything like that. But the wheels do roll. Gamestop did the same thing with Horizon 3. They just do the cover car, so it was the Lamborghini Centenario. I’ve got some pics of it around here somewhere...

EDIT: Here we go. Had to screenshot it from my Instagram.

Kinja'd!!!

I’ve bought ever Motorsport since the original (except 5, screw that rushed mess cash grab of a game), and I’ll be getting this one as well.

Very cool. I may just hold onto it then.

Same here and didn’t get 5 either. I loved 6 but I think 4 is still my favorite because of how the online marketplace for tunes and liveries was set up.

3/4 are tied for me. 3 had the best tracks and 4 had the best car selection. Rally di Pasitano ftw

Yep pre-ordered on Amazon a couple months back when there was a weird glitch on Amazon.

Got the Ultimate Edition for under $50

That’s awesome. So they honored it?

Amazingly they did. I was shocked.

They always do the 20% off if you preorder. But they took that new price ($80) and then took another 20 percent off. And then there was some coupon I had saved for any electronic or gaming purchase.

Awesome. Will it be to you by tomorrow? I plan on hopping on tomorrow night at some point. GT is Scorched83 if ya ever wanna play. I need to get a mic though as I don’t have one at the moment.
