    Set in Australia this time around. :D

    It will be available on Xbox One and Windows 10 (I believe you buy the X1 version and get the windows version for free) with cross play enabled.

    Looks great. Out Sept 27.

    Looks awesome.

    I think the open world race games are more fun than the track sims.

    I've been really impressed with the Windows 10 "Apex" demo so I'm looking forward to trying this.

    Looks great!

    I looked like they are getting closer to the open world feel of TDU and letting you go ANYWHERE.

    I'm curious how big the map will be

    I found this map. Not sure how accurate it is since some of those locations in real life are thousands of miles apart ;)

    Yes. Buy the base Xbox One. The only difference between each Xbox One package is the extras it comes with. You won't need a ton of extra storage and the Kinect system that more expensive versions give you

    What do you think about it?

    I thought the graphics were great. I'm not a huge fan of how much off roading is REQUIRED.

    I looked at the map outside of the demo area and didn't see a highway so I'm hoping I just overlooked it. I really enjoy blasting down the highway and build up a big score combo.

    Ahhh well that sucks. It took me about 3hrs to download it

    Australia looks like a pretty cool place. I might have to hop over there at some point. Too bad they drive on the wrong side of the road. That was the biggest issue for me when roaming around and weaving in traffic :D

    I'm still puzzled on what they exactly mean by that. They say they'll launch it for both Xbox AND PC on the 27th, but demo after launch? Weird.

    If you buy the Ultimate edition you get to play on the 23rd.

    Why are you puzzled? It's pretty common practice to release the console version demo before the PC version. Not that many companies release demos anymore.

    The game is for X1 with free access to the PC version if you buy the "digital" version. They're not trying to sell to PC users since you can't buy the PC version.

    They said after launch. That doesn't mean the 27th of Sept, it could actually mean the 1st of November ;)

    Did you get the ultimate?

    I still need to go preorder it. I need an actual copy vs a digital copy since my Xbox One hard drive is filling up :eek:

    Yeap Ultimate. It's like 46Gb to pre-load. :eek: Just buy an external drive, a few friends have bought SSD's for boosted load times.

    Ya I need to get an external drive. I keep having to delete old games which I hate doing.

    I'll get one but probably not in time for this game
