Relaxed, General FH3 Chat

Hopefully this means PG are preparing to showcase Miatas with wide bodykits...

Welp. Put some 1000hp Turbocharged Rotary as well.

Forza Horizon 3 Limited Edition Steel book

 

[AudiMan2011]

After seeing the Ultimate Edition physical copy available to pre-order online at GAME, this changes what I was thinking before I decide to pre-order.

 

[ALAN ULTIMATE]

Shame that you lose the "play anywhere" feature" by opting for the physical ultimate edition!

 

[BoneSawTX]

I have the steel book for FM5, very cool but I love not having a shelf wasted full of games.

 

[VXR]

I love the convenience of being able to jump into several games without the relative hassle of ejecting and swapping discs.

 

[C_Raccoon23]

The Ultimate Edition on Amazon says the release date is the 27th instead of the 23rd. And I swore it said the 23rd when I first pre-ordered.

I hope this is some kind of error that gets correctly, because if not, I'm going to cancel and go digital.

@Master Weasel All physical versions are available from the 27th while VIP early access is only granted to digital UE buyers, as with FM6.

Overall convenience is enough of an incentive for me to snub a disc order. Getting a head start is a small added bonus, though I haven't settled on which edition I'll go for just yet.

I find it strange they went with the 55 SuperCheap car and not the 1 Bottle O car of winterbottom.

I see. Guess I'll have to go digital then. As nice as the steel book case is, I'm dead set on getting the game on the 23rd, since it's a Friday. I want to enjoy Horizon 3 over that weekend.

Edit: After doing a little bit of digging around, I think I'm going to hold on to my Amazon pre-order for now. A couple of people who ordered from Amazon in different countries reported the dates changing from the 23rd to the 27th and back again. Weird, but I'll just wait some more and see what happens near release.

 

[AudiMan2011]

The physical copy of the Ultimate on GAME UK's website reads the 23rd for me.

I would like to get a general idea of who will be playing on what system, so please vote in this thread! (I really wonder how many PC players will be joining the Forza eco-system.)

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Nvm.

 

[DJTHEKING]

Do you think we will have a new car reveal tomorrow?

 

[GranTurismo guy]

Do you think we will have a new car reveal tomorrow?

Yes. Same day every week.

 

[Turboteg90]

The cars were revealed last Tuesday on cnet.

Hnnnng. They've outdone themselves with that Maloo.

 

[fortbo]

Glad to see that the RS5 is back.

 

[yabiggoose]

Hoping there's still lots of Aussie cars to come, if not it's pathetic.

 

[Aerocoupe]

It's only the second week, I'm sure they'll reveal more down the line.

 

[BoneSawTX]

I don't get the people complaining and crying about the car roster after the first and second realized lists. Inevitably these are the same moaning that the roaster of 600 - 700 cars is crap because the s14 or something else is left out.

 

[yabiggoose]

If you're having a go at me I'm complaining about the lack of (always under-represented anyway) Aussie cars in a game set here in Australia.

 

[BoneSawTX]

Hnnnng. They've outdone themselves with that Maloo.

I was so hoping Pontiac would sell those before being put down.

 

[FT-1]

2013 Mazda MX-5

Order has been restored.

 

[SlipZtrEm]

It already has more Aussie road cars than any other game I can think of...

Nice to see the Aston V600 return: it hasn't been seen since FM4. Also, amazing they've kept the non-SVR Rangie. That makes me very happy.

 

[-Fred-]

I'm struggling to see what kind of Aussie car would be missing, aside from a few generations of mostly similar Commodores and Falcons...

I'm glad someone else noticed the V600. So hyped for that beast.
