Whilst I'm not a fan of Forza and I don't own an Xbox One, this game looks very good. I don't like the city environments, at least as I can tell from the initial part of the Twitch stream but environments like below is incredible;
I downloaded the direct-feed footage from the OP and most of them shots are so good, the outdoor fields, both in day and night.
It's really surprising still for me to be seeing such density on a console, when I'm not even used to seeing them on Skyrim Mods (Lush Grass for example). The sheer amount of grass, plants and all that kind is really nice to see.

My body is at peak readiness. You know what to add to the soundtrack to complete this, do it.

Oh shit, that song that played during the King playground game! That's the one that plays on the Formula 1 podium, after they pop the champaigne.

Are there any triple screen setups there?
Some of the views are awesome, it'd be great to see more of them as you race.

Gsus, that new gameplay looks amazing in every way. FH was one of my favourite games on 360, it was just perfectly balanced and pure fun. Now it really looks like they transfered the spirit of FH1 to the new gen and made every aspect of the game even better - graphics, sound, physics, environment, online - cannot find any flaws in this newly released videos.
I need that game now.
Gonna have a lot of fun on my XBO this fall with this, MCC and SO, that's for sure.

One of the sole reasons I bought an XB1. September can not come soon enough.

Is this the same footage? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e1Q02SZkVCM
Man it looks like the car just glides on the road when you're drifting. I dunno, it looks strange. Hard to nail 3rd person view in car games.

...I...ummm...it...hng...I mean..
Hold on...(recovers)
. . . This may be the greatest arcade racer to date.
Fuckin hell, that's it. Getting an Xbox1 when it launches here next month.
Edit: I see motorbikes parked on the streets, kinda wish we could race on those
Edit2: I gotta say, love the destruction in this game and I think it deserves a little recognition. Things break apart pretty nicely, even shrubs.

That video, dear lord! This game only lacks driving on walls and ceilings to be the combination of all of my favorite arcade racers. PGR, OutRun, FlatOut, the first Horizon - they're all there! And it looks so damn good! All right, I better stop with all the exclamation marks. Good job, Playground. Time devourer, I await thee.
Yupp... my GOTY here. I can't even describe how much I want to play it now...

Definitely looks great and sometimes indistinguishable from real life.

Looks like a heap of fun.
And this is the most important part, game looks great.
Definitely getting this along with my Sunset Overdrive "white sexy console" bundle.
This game is now ambitious than I thought. It's not going to be the best looking racer visually, but it doesn't matter because it still looks good and looks like a lot of fun. Going from a road trip to different racing events with a group of other racers seems cool. This might be actually more of a social game than Driveclub, haha.

Will pick this up soon after I get my White X1 Sunset Overdrive bundle.
Looks terrific, and given the quality of the first title, we have good reason to believe it will be.

I notice a clear lack of Bom Bom in that list... I might cancel my pre-order because of that.
I hope there is an option to turn off the HUD, Helios?
I really like the HUD. But: to be honest, without the HUD, sometimes the game pretty much looks like a real video.
you could in fh1 and the last few forza games, i'm sure you'll be able to here
Heads up that have another Forza Horizon 2 livestream starting in 30 mins and will be taking questions from the stream chat. Should be fun
