Forza 2 demo releasing in a few hours

Whoo!

there goes my chances of playing tonight... oh well goodnight

This'll be my second night in a row staying up 'till 5am for XBL updates...each tick of the clock resonates in my head like the syncopated footsteps of a crazy peg-legged pirate hobbling down a vacant alley... eyes... twitching... metaphors... not living up to... usual standards... cars... vrooommm *snore*

Oh no, we're losing Tom to fatigue. Quick, someone grab the Dew reserve and a pixy stick, mix them, and pour it down his throat. Tom, you'll make it man ... only a few hours to go.

i'm happy that its coming out but i'm hiting the sack right now i will get it in the morning

why cant the release stuff when Im not a work. If i see any1 posting how great this game is before 5pm gmt im gunna kill u all

I never got a chance to play the first Forza, but I do say these screens are looking mighty shiny. I've been getting into racing games a lot lately... can't wit.

OMG THIS GAME IS SO AWESOME! I DONT EVEN HAVE TO PLAY THE DEMO TO KNOW THAT!!111!1

i cant freaking wait till the demo is dropped. i am a forza fanatic.

Easy there killer, I'm at work too but I think I'll manage to wait a few hours.

You're a bunch of lying liars...

No Forza2 Love available yet.

Yo Dave, nobody said it was available yet, still about 35 more minutes. RTFA.

...ok my fault. I didn't see 2AM PDT/5AM EDT.
I read it as 2AM EDT - damn M$ and everything based on PT.

Is anyone else having trouble signing into Xbox Live? I've been offline for the past hour. Post a comment if you're on Xbox Live right now please so I can go check my connection. I obviously have an internet connection right now, but can't get onto Xbox Live. Thanks.

The Forza 2 Demo still isn't up. No worries.. yet. Im on XBox Live right now. Have been most of the night without any hiccups.

I'm on right now, waiting readily for the demo. :D

Not seein anything yet :(

Bastards.... screw it, i'm going to sleep

691 MB! downloading now!

it's up, and i'm downloading

Ok downloading it right now, and I'm in the US. Instead of going to the Game Demos section, simply click Games, then Genres, Racing, and Forza Motorsport 2, then you'll see the demo.

Have fun! :D

got it downloading very quick 24% in 3 minutes

by the way i live in chicago and have it


p.s. go bulls cubs and bears!!!!!!!!!!!!

Real Forza fans download the demo the second it comes on the marketplace, weather they have to just go at 2 or try and look for it for a half hour.. all's well that ends well.. it's downloading, and I'm off to sleep.

oh thank god. i was getting scared. downloading now :)

Finally!!! I've been checking it non stop since 2am to try and be the first to download and play it

Downloading in the UK

launching it right now. haha. guess i was on of the first to be able to see it in action? theres a lot of cars for it to be just a demo. this game is truly wortht the wait.

Yeah, ive been playing it for about 15 minutes, the damage is great. I would kill myself if I actually did something like this to a ferrari in real life :|

Got it downloaded. The game is sick. I'm glad I've already got it pre-ordered!

wow!i was driving the corvette ZO6 and i was in the lead when the ford gt rammed me in the ass and shattered my rear window. this is how a racing game should be done. racing isnt about blowing by everyone then leaving them way behind, its about competition and wow is the ai competetive in this game! the damage is right on.just wish they had let you try out online and some of the customization.

To bad there is only one track and the difficulty isn't changeable of course you can switch off the ABS TCS and stuff.... But you can't kill your car.
Well it playes sweet, it looks ok compared to other racers.
Can't wait for the full game...

I'm not that impressed...they actual driving dynamics of the game are awesome...but the graphics and crash damage to me aren't all that great...*shrugs*

Can't wait for the full game to release!

remember those pc racing games where you find your self sliding of the track despite perfectly timed breaking, and then lose the race?
well forza 2 is just that
basically i'm utterly disappointed with this demo
everything seems so over sensitive
hopefully it'll clean up by the time the reatail version comes

for the time being pgr is still gonna be on top

I have to agree with "olithebumm". The physics don't seem to be all that they said they would be. I hope it's just a demo problem and not in the full game.

what a let down. the graphics arnt even as good as i got on the last toca on my pc with a 6600GT.

its just not good enough for next gen

come on guys its a DEMO. its not the full game. demos arent suppose to be as good as the full game. i bet you a million dollars that the Halo 3 beta isnt near as good as what the final game will be. yet everyone is making such a big fuss ove rit bc its Halo. if anyone has ever driven as fast as these cars go you would know that when you come into a corner that tight and brake that quickly, you car is going to slide and get loose. the physics of this game are quit good actually. maybe some of you just dont understand how to race. see the thing is when you come into a corner you dont break as much as you let off of the gas and then throttle back up. this makes you loose less speed than braking into the corner does. in most cases you can pass your opponent this way too. like i said braking into corners that sharp does csuse your car to get loose and slide around. thats not what you want to do, unless you know how to drift the corners. im trying to come in first with all 24 cars myself. maybe it unlocks something, who knows. ive already beaten it with like 5 or 6 so far. anyone who thinks the graphics arent that good then you must have a shitty tv and not an hdtv. i think its a great demo and going to be an even better game. ive had mine reserved since back in october. cant wait til the 29th. then ill show some of you how to race. LOL- add me- badboy269

thats all well and good but im not gunna folk £50 out on the off chance its improved alot since the demo

Nice game and all, but my Toyota Matrix IRL has better f***ing cornering than all these fancy cars. I bet you can't even win a race without buying the f***ing steering wheel! Grrr! It's just frustatingly difficult.
