FH2's Metascore is very satisfying!

What the heck is going on with the sun's position? Does the earth change direction while rotating? Shadows keep changing direction.
Odd abrupt sky changes as well, not a good game for a timelapse.

I don't see much problem, unless you think there is also a problem with timelapse taken of real life then that is a subjective matter perhaps?

Game is an awesome game in the demo. Looking forward to it. Game is visually my most impressive game I've played so far. Although seriously the spray off cars needs sorting. It doesn't look great next to everything else that looks stunning.

Look at the shadows. They don't change direction in real life...
I've done a bunch of timelapse videos and this looks all wrong.



A fully cloudy sky also doesn't suddenly change into blue sky, and the sky changes color a lot at sunrise and sunset in real life.
It doesn't matter in game but there is something weird going on with the day/night cycle. The abrupt changes could be from editting but even then, shadows don't reverse the direction they move in, ever.

Much diference between Xbox One and 360 versions too, very noticeable:



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

I don't think the 360 version will be that bad.  That being said if it scores below 80 on metascore I will only get it after its deeply discounted.  One thing nice about the 360 version since it doesn't have weather there will probably be a few open top convertible like there where in the first game its already known that the car rosters will be slightly different.  I really liked the 2010 Alfa Romeo Spider and 2010 Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport Convertible in the first game they are not in the X1 version but could be back in the 360 version.

Mid to high 80's.

Refreshing to see a game getting reviewed BEFORE the release date.

I'm seeing all this collector and car pack editions on the Xbone store though.. fuck why do they keep screwing with day one content like this. It's why I passed on Forza 5 and might pass on this too.

Yeah its sucks. A lot of them you get for free if you pre-order (which you can still do, thanks to early reviews).

But I agree it shouldn't happen.

whats the prices like on your locals xbox live stores? cuase on mine i got the vip pass for horzion 2 for $15 instead of $25 and the car pass is $34 compared to forza 5 which is still $70 or more never touched that, might get the car pass though as get heaps of cars for that price. 

Well the car pass for Horizon 2 only has 31 cars in it six car packs with five cars each and one bonus car the 2010 Noble M600.  The car pass for Forza 5 was a much better deal even though it was twice as much and didn't contain a bonus car it almost had 100 cars, it includes the 8 monthly packs with ten cars each and the three track packs with five cars each.
