Yeah - 500+ cars is plenty enough for me. Especially if you add in engine swaps and abilty to set them up in multiple classes etc ...

I'd much rather we got regular Track DLC releases than Car Pack DLC any day. I also agree with the Gamespot review that I would have rather the disc space go to more tracks than to something like Autovista.

Still, I'm as excited as a kid is when waiting for the first day of summer.

The disc space is not the issue here, development time is - isn't the second DVD like 2GB. Granted HDD space might be a problem for the Arcade and 20 gig models.

Welp... Got an e-mail from Game that my LCE pre-order has been cancelled.

So I ordered it again. Like they said.

And now they cancelled that one too.

drat, when did you make your order? I'm relieved I haven't received a cancellation (yet) but I made my order early August. My order status is "unshipped" so I'm hoping that I'm one of the few that has a Forza 4 LCE sitting in the warehouse right now waiting for the release date.

September 17th. I had it pre-ordered on Shopto before that but they didn't get the LCE so I changed to Game. That might've bit me in the rear end.

Anyhoo I ordered it again because I am a stubborn bastard and they haven't cancelled that one yet. Fingers crossed.

Is the BMW cover just a shiny paper box with the game case and the book in there or is it something fancier?

Just a shiny paper box, since the LCE box is really a tin-case with Forza 4 on it.

Ahh poo poo, that's what I actually mean't to ask - whether the BMW thing IS the box or just a cover. So the real LCE box is inside that BMW box? Sweet.

Here's a somewhat crappy image of what's inside the box and how everything looks.



Daaamn that looks hella tight.

Ugh I think I'm gonna go and get super drunk and try to warp forward a couple of days or so to make the wait more bearable.

Sure enough is. And yes, it still drives like an oil tanker with a broken rudder.

Yesssss. Gonna paint it a hideously dull green and try to drift it in every corner.

I checked this morning but nothing, i'll have to check later if i've got mine.

I didnt realise the 037 was rwd, for some reason I thought it was AWD, but im getting it confused with the delta s4. God I would love the delta S4 in forza, such an utterly mental car.

Got the preorder code about an hour ago. No sign of the game itself, though.

So I was doing some research on the Charger Daytona while trying to build mine to be as close to NASCAR spec as possible, and I came across something rather interesting...


Well I'll be damned. :stare:

So M. Rossi is what, about 65 years old?

That would explain quite a lot why he drives like that.

If this was the only thing announced, I would be fine with that.

It's gonna be a Porsche announcement because I bought my own copy of Forza 3 this week, and so it'll be a waste of money now with Porsche coming to FM4.

Thanks for taking one for the team, I said come in!.

Someone mentioned on the official forums that they saw at least 205 roads to explore.

There was a counter (ACHIEVEMENTS) in the bottom of the screen in that short E3 vid that showed .../205.

How big was Hot Pursuit 2010? I hope there are some villages at least - having almost no buildings in HP was weird.

Hot Pursuit didn't have a very big world I think. I don't remember it being that large anyways.

OK, so according to Criterions Twitter it's 10.5 square miles and 100 miles of road but there's not that many different routes - looking at the map I can count ~20 named roads so there should at least be a bigger variety in races in Horizons.

I'm optimistic Horizons will be fun - I know I have left Forza 4 on the sidelines due to my terrible ISP but nice open world driving games are rare to come by.

Really, that's my big hope for Horizon. I hope it does well and Turn 10 takes it as a hint they should be branching out into different styles of racing. Maybe by the time the next xbox launches we'll have a proper rally game again. :ohdear:

If someone makes Richard Burns Rally 2 I probably will die.
