I am off of work both days too. But specifically for Horizon. Figured it was worth it considering I still have like 150 hours of vacation time left.
anyone got a picture of the training wheels for the robin?
all the preview stuff has a locked 30, could be twitch.
GOTY confirmed
This is hilarious.

So the Ultimate edition is pretty much all cars, right? Or would it include potential expansion areas as well?

No, but FH2 VIP pass owners got a 5 discount on the Storm Island DLC (though there were no discounts for any "expansion" packs for FM6 VIPs)

I wonder if we will see any Angela White cameos in this game...
Preorder bonus. What do you think the VIP pass is for?
We see her during the tutorial; she demonstrates how to drive stick.

Was watching Star Trek on Netflix while Destiny updates. Womp womp. I hope the rest of Canada is thinking warm thoughts of running SoundScream off the road.

I think the Ultimate Edition comes with the special Angela White Lambo.

Framerate is something you never have to worry about with Turn 10 and Playground games. Rock solid.

So if I'm really drawn to this game because of the world and the graphics (I'm a big sucker for cool, beautiful open worlds, no matter what genre) but I've only ever really played arcade racers in the past (Burnout, etc.) and have never really been able to get into more simmy racers, should I stay away?
Horizon series is not particularly "simmy" unless you turn off assists.
You'll probably like it. Horizon is fun in the way arcade racers are more than demanding perfect turns like the Forza Motorsport series. I like the world and music stuff enough that I probably only spend about 30% of my time racing. I mostly just like driving around quickly in great cars and enjoying the maps.
Give the demo a shot to get an idea. If you're on PC it'll be out after the game launches.
Oh my!I think the Ultimate Edition comes with the special Angela White Lambo.

Awesome...I'll definitely check out the demo when it hits.

I could handle the curves like a pro with that.
I was in the same boat before Horizon 2. Only ever played Burnout Paradise and one of the NFS. I absolutely loved Horizon 2 and after selling my xbox once I played Quantum Break I totally just bought a XBONE-S for Horizon 3. The demo is fantastic. Ordered the 99.99 version off of Amazon. Excited!

I went ahead and preorderd the digital ultimate edition from the MS store, but I can't preload the game. I can install VIP and the car packs, but it wants me to pay again for the actual game. Am I doing it wrong? Doesn't show under ready to install either.

Thinking bout it some more. Kind of lame that only $100 edition purchasers get the Friday release. GAF goes nuts over fucked up shit like this but I guess FH3 gets a pass for some reason.
I'm kind of jealous but not, it's just not worth $40 to play it early for me.
To me, that seems like a legit good preorder incentive for anyone that purchases the game. That's a great incentive but not for $40 extra.

Eh, the early play bonus is a pretty small aspect of that extra $40. You're getting a $20 VIP pass and a $20+ season pass with it, the early access is just an extra bonus.
EDIT:
It's mostly a profit thing, but I think you can make some reasonable arguments that a limited launch can actually help suss out any major server issues or other problems.

Not sure if "FH3 gets a pass", many games are doing it these days and I'd say many aren't exactly chuffed with it. Unfortunately it seems to be the "new normal".
