Forza 6 is out today!

Hey there... fellow gamers! (surely you're out there?) Forza 6 is out today!

The Tier 2 loyalty reward is the M235i (just means you need to have played some forza and done some things... and perhaps used their forza hub I think?)

Now if only the 360 racing wheel worked on the xbox one

Thinking of picking this up, but I've been hooked on destiny and madden still. Do let us know how the game is though.

I wanted to get this, but I think I'm happy with using the M235i in Driveclub now that I'm OK at the game. Driveclub with the season pass is $20 on PSN by the way (may be a PS+ deal), and the M235i looks awesome in it (as does everything else)!

I only game on PC. There is an M235 Racing in Assetto Corsa (a high-fidelity PC racing sim I recommend highly).

It's good fun. The races in the rain are particularly entertaining

Cool! I didn't know the M235i was in there. I'll be picking up my copy today.

I hate how many updates before you start playing. Sigh.

Oh, and why did I pre-order from best buy? Well to get the BMW M4 Coupe car of course!

I played the demo. I really didnt see any difference than Forza 5 for that short play time. My only issue that prevents me playing Forza 5, or buying 6, is that I'd have to get a wheel controller to enjoy it. (I cant stand driving with a joystick) The problem is, those things cost more than the Xbox One itself did.

My son has the Thrustmaster wheel and it works pretty well. Still not cheap at ~$100, but certainly less than an XBox One and much better than using the controller.

Nice, I didnt know that even existed. The last time I looked for them the cheapest one was $400.

Oh yeah, forget figuring out graphics from that. I took a shot of the TV with an iphone and then uploaded to imgur AND THEN resized so do not look at that one for quality.

Cool thing about the game is you get a much greater appreciate for the different tracks.

I would imagine the nurburgring is much easier to drive in real life? 8:48 is the best I could muster in an indy car which was all tore up when I crossed the line.
