Really thinking of changing my Destiny pre-order over to this. More I look at that game I keep thinking it's going to be a waste. I will decide after the beta in July.

Forza Horizon 2 was interesting. I still don't have an xbone and was leaning towards PS4 this year, but forza sparked wifey's interest, so that may change.

Quote:
Expect more things to collect and discover, more secrets and barn finds to track down

Quote:
Unsurprisingly, Showcase Events are back with a vengeance in Forza Horizon 2

Quote:
You’ll be delighted to hear that more than half of our Barn Finds in Horizon 2 are completely new to Forza
- Horizon wristbands are back
- The game will have an assistant called ANNA
Quote:
As you explore the world, you’ll be able to take advantage of Horizon 2’s all-new onboard assistant ANNA. Part GPS system and part game guide, ANNA can give you directions to any spot on the Forza Horizon 2 map, including the most relevant challenge for the car you’re driving. If you’ve got a Kinect for your Xbox One, you’ll be able to control ANNA with your voice, leaving your hands free to get on with the business of collecting victories. ANNA will also make intelligent recommendations based on your progress through the game. If your friends kick off a new Online Road Trip, ANNA will alert you and offer to seamlessly connect you into their online match. At any point in the game you can ask ANNA, “What should I do next?” and she’ll reply with great options designed specifically for you

Multiplayer

Quote:
where up to 12 cars tear through the countryside

Quote:
From the foothills of the Alps, right down the Mediterranean Sea. From the rolling hills of Tuscany in Italy, across the border into France and beautiful Provence and the glamorous Côte d'Azur
- Horizon 2 has three times more roads and play space than the first game
Quote:
it also has three times more driveable area; a three-times bigger play space
- All barriers and rails have been removed. You can drive wherever you want even if its not road
Quote:
We’ve taken the view that, if there isn’t a barrier in the real-world, if there isn’t a wall, there shouldn’t be one in our game
