I swapped my PC for a laptop long time ago. I doubt a 740m will do FH justice.
As my local store is still uncertain whether they'll even be able to get psvr in this year, a refurbished XBox One is going to be very tempting. Plenty cheap second hand games available now, Sunset overdrive and Quantum break for example. That and a mini NES, sounds good to me. One positive thing of these mid gen upgrades is that it stimulates the 2nd hand market :)

I actually bought a refurb X1 on ebay for like $200 bucks and it came with 3 games. Works great, I would suggest going with that.

OT: Just preordered Forza Horizon 3 digitally, love this series. I played the crap out of 1 and 2, one of my favorite series.

After the Eurogamer DF piece just now I'll wait for the Scorpio. That way the game is still fresh when I play it next year on a more affordable mature HDR set. I waited with GTA 5 and TR as well and was not disappointed. One was great, albeit a bit short. 2 more will keep me busy.

Cant wait to play FH3 later today with HDR and compare it to the 4K version running off a 980Ti.

The demo looks stunning on XBOX S upscaled, but had no HDR.

I missed the video settings comes with some calibration settings:

Still don't have the game yet but I saved $15 dollars by buying it physical since I bought the Ultimate Edition from amazon and its currently $84.99 instead of $99.99.

If you are talking about FH3 then let me know what you think of it. I have noticed that I usually tend to agree with your taste/opinions when it comes to racing games lol.

I say 91 or 92; it's "only" 91 right now thanks to those fools at IBTimes UK, who gave the Game a fake 40/100.
This happens all the time; that stupid score should be removed from Metacritic, and this is coming from one of the hottest PS4 fan on this planet=me.

This is probably one of the very best racer of this generation !

So I've played a few races on PC. It's way fun. The game looks great and runs great. No hiccups so far. With the exeption of a few tracks Epitaph radio, most of the music is bogus. Fortunately I can just mute it and play my own tunes.

Up to 91 on Meta!

I am really not into racing games, but this is my home nation and it sounds like a lot of fun so I may give it a go!

It was already at 91 on the day the embargo was lifted.
