    hm no.. not really excited.. I rather save the money for simracing equipment and r3e content.

    played horiza forzon 1 .. but no.. lost interest in casual racing games like these some years ago.

    W10 exclusively.

    They could even pay me money to get W10 and this game, and I would not comply to get W10. My divorce from MS is forever. They crossed so many red lines in past months that hostility and unforgivingness is all I feel for them now. I walk the Linux way of things now.

    Yeah why not. I like my arcade street racers too.

    Also, more big console titles coming to the PC can only be a good thing. It means the PC is being treated more seriously as a mainstream gaming platform.

    I prefer Windows 10 to both Windows 7 and Windows 8.1, but that's probably just me...

    No thanks, i have enough Codies driving games for titilation, one more, naa.
    well i guess opinions differ, but i cant remember a time when the PC wasnt considered a mainstream gaming platform, the arguments PC v Console have gone on since day 1.
    My take on it would be the possibility of a 50% increase in revenue by introducing the title to the pc rather the pc being accepted as the gaming platform it has always been.

    Love Windows 10 on my touch screen laptop/tablet
    freakin hate it on my main computer and gaming PC.

    I got a SSD thats being unused right now. So my gaming Rig is going to be dual Os boot.
    Windows 10 will be only for Forza 6 apex and Horizon maybe.

    I pre-ordered it for my Xbox One. I really enjoyed Horizon 1 and 2, they are great arcade racers, controls and graphics are awesome and I liked that story/task based gameplay.

    I think it's cool, PC hasn't had this type of a game since TDU2, and that one was a mess. (not counting the online-only Crew)

    I won't be able to run it with this PC though, so it's won't be on my radar anytime soon.

    I am pretty sure if you bought it for the Xbo you get the PC version as well and vise versa.

    That's what I understood, though you can only buy the boxed edition for XBox One, if you like to have boxed games (I'm not bothered)

    Not just you. :) I prefer OS X to anything, but after a week-ish with Win10 so far, it's a huge improvement, probably the best Windows yet.

    I had a lot of fun with the first Forizon, after I got past all the terrible festival stuff, but my computer chokes on the night races in Apex, so I don't think I have much of a chance with FH3.

    Apex was pretty meh so not really pumped, that said if there's a sale I'll probably grab it in the future.

    I'm interested in Forza Motorsport 7 coming to PC. Excited might be a strong word. It should have serious wheel support for the first time, and it has pretty much any North-American track you can want, and ridiculously good graphics.

    No issues with my CSR...

    Only problem with UWP Apps is that you have to plug the pedals in the wheel...

    Theres a demo. Try it :)

    You can install it as a dual boot, to be able to continue simracing ;) (or a triple boot: Hackintosh + Kubuntu + Windows like me :p)
