    Where's the 360 demo for this game. Once again MS have shown a blatant disregard for 360 owners. It seems they have forgotten who made the xbox franchise what it is today. All they seem to wanna do is cater for XB1 owners.

    Tbh I was surprised a 360 versuin was even made, did anyone really expect that? Would of also liked to of seen a demo too though. The reduced RRP might help to make up for it a bit.

    I had a shot of the 360 version of this game on my mate's console earlier. Excellent fun but wow, last gen looks last gen! Notice a big difference between this 360 & X1 version

    Loving this so far. Just feels more relaxed than Forza 5.

    BTW I've created a club called DigitalSpy so come all join once you unlock that feature. If anyone isn't friends with me my tag is Red Arrow X.

    I've been furious tonight at how crap xbone has been. I preordered just after the demo and have been stuck on "Installing 100%" all day LONG! Is this normal on XBONE? How do you guys love it so much?

    I've only just managed to play it after uninstalling multiple times and reinstalling, removing external HDD (yeah thats crap too).

    I've not even got past the demo yet, up to the planes bit, and its finishing to install.

    Soooooooo rubbish!!!!!!

    Games on PS4 do really just work when pre-ordering. I dont think i'll ever pre-order digital ever again. And to think MS were only going to do digital DRM!!!!!! :o What a joke!

    Also, how far into the game can you access your DLC content? I have day one edition which came with 3 cars however my garage just has my starter car in it.

    Once the Auto Show is unlocked you can "buy" all your cars for zero credits.

    As well as the 3x Day One cars there is also a FREE launch bonus car pack that has 8 cars in it.

    There are also 5 more cars if you buy the VIP Pass.

    Because problems like this are rare. I bet you there are PS4 owners who have experienced similar issues.

    After like 40% you should be able to start playing it, can't you?

    Played a few online events tonight, was a lot of fun. One game mode I rather like is the infection one but it's too short. There should be a few rounds of that to make it last compared to a normal race.

    Iv'e put this game on hold for now. Once i'm done with Shadow of Modor and my Fifa addiction starts to wear off i'm going to jump in. Hopefully it won't be too far in the future because Sunset Overdrive and MCC aren't far away!

    You've been unlucky that is all, I preordered digital and played tonight with no issues.

    There seems to be a bit of a thing for wet roads in racers, Horizon 2 and every clip of Drive Club, wet road wet road wet road, yes its a nice effect but sometimes roads are dry too. :D

    The tech has failed. That is not being unlucky.

    Perhaps this is a one-off for you that wont occur again, not a great start I must admit.

    Have you managed to get it working? You should stick with it because its a fabulous game, you might find this VERY hard to believe right now, but I think, I'm only basing this on what I know about Drive Club, but you'll probably end up preferring FZ2 over DC, I'm not sold on this whole been in a club thing, going it alone in a racer is more me. Got to get it working first though, hope everything gets sorted soon if it isn't already.

    take it from a person who was ready to take the XB1 back to the shop after a very stressful 5 days trying to install Titanfall, i hated it and made my feelings known on here..

    as soon as i got fibre, its a different story.....

    i love it to bits..keep the faith

    Been playing on and off since 12am yesterday and it was certainly worth the wait.

    Just wish those rewards would come in. Where's my one and a half million credits?

    It's good that MS are still releasing some AAAs, but let's face it - they'd be foolish not to as the sheer size of the userbase gives them a much better chance of making a profit than selling only on Xbox One.

    What's annoying is their tendency to almost deny that the 360 versions exists. No screenshots, no video footage, no demo and not even any review code made available until the game is out.

    Titanfall all over again.

    I could have bought this game on 360. I could have even stumped up the cash to buy an Xbox One to play it on. But the uncertainty about the game means I've done neither.

    Their loss.

    This is exactly what I mean. well said FF :)

    I received my reward tier cars at about 10.45pm last night. Think I also got the credits as well. I had a quick shot when I got in last night but cant remember much about it. It was in the message center as gifts. I had also arrived in Nice at the same time, so maybe that unlocks it?

    The thing is I only redeemed the money, so the cars must be auto sent.

    I have had about 10 wheel spins and I have only received credits as well, where is my free car:)

    I only put in 2 hours last night but I'm at like level 15 already. Some people have been playing since Tuesday so it's possible they're so high.

    To change car, I think you have to go to the garage at one of the festivals.

    You need to go to the horizon festival, think it is a big h on the map. If you highlight it you can fast travel by pressing the blue button.

    The americans, and the rest of the world that bought the game with an American account, have had the game since Tuesday, which is why they are so high level wise.

    Anyone else having trouble with the bowler bucket list challenge? I got within 200m of completing it but might have to buy an axe and chop down a pathway.:D

    I must have spent 2 hours trying the bowler challenge and I have finally done it with a second to spare as well. I went left after the first corner of trees to avoid the trees at the bottom of the hill, but when you get to the top of the hill to the left, the jumps would have me landing on my roof. I eventually got a solid landing. I hope the rest aren't as hard as that. The other ones that I have done have been straight forward.
