One minute to midnight and I get my code.
Microsoft have been watching too many cliche ridden films.

I'm enjoying this game so far and think it looks gread but I'm not so keen on having to set up the festival.

They have announced details today that there will be at least two expansions for the game.

We also want to let fans know that we will be offering a Forza Horizon 3 Expansion Pass for $34.99. The pass includes two expansions with the first being released this holiday and Ultimate Edition owners will receive a discount of $10 if purchased before the end of 2016. Stay tuned for more details in the near future.

I was disappointed with FH2 but I did enjoy the Storm Island expansion. FH3 seems more like that so I'll have to give it a go. The only thing that puts me off is the constant waffle between races and fannying around with the Festival stuff. Just let me do some cool races FFS.

I love the Forza Horizon games, wish I could afford to get this but it will have to wait. Really liked the demo though.

I'm enjoying this so far. Haven't played too much but I quite like not having the road trips between championships. Yes you still have to travel to the different festivals but at least you can take your own route and discover new things

Went for a chore day yesterday. Driving on all roads and seeing how many boards I could smash.
Thought it was going to pull the usual Horizon trick and frustrate me with the phantom road that needs driving over seventeen times to register. Had 486 of 488 and scoured the map for an hour last night and saw nothing.
Had 30 mins spare this afternoon before leaving for work and found both of them in 5 minutes.

Found a board hidden inside a shed that I can't smash. There's an indestructible support blocking it.

You need to use a thinner car to get it.

I used the

Odd.

It took me a while but I had the digital version.
I'm sure I installed a disk game recently and it looked like it was downloading but came off of the disk. Do you normally get 80MB download speeds

Looking forward to playing this later-on, got quite a large download queue at the moment, so most lightly be tonight before I'm on...

Cheers. Will wait a bit longer then.
The boards on the rooves are annoying me at the moment. Perseverance.

A few people are reporting this.

Not sure what I normally get on the Xbox, but I'm with Virgin Media on the 100Mbps service.

All xbone games take an age to install for me. That's offline, which speeds it up apparently (don't know if it's true) They seem to take longer if online.
I'm quite enjoying it - disappointed there are no VW or Porsche though.

As with all the new Forza games, there will inevitably be a Porsche expansion.
Probably won't be the first one that's coming this year. Think that'll be the landmass DLC like Storm Island last time.

Just bought forza horizon 3 download. Price on amazon seems to be up and down because before it was £40 but now 48. Never played horizon series or bought a game based on graphics but absolutely loved how incredible this game looked and it was a lot of fun.

I've played a couple of hours of this and really enjoying it. If I change to the digital version, will my save work and achievements link to it or will it start over with a new achievement list?
