The graphics are alot better than 2011, the AI are so realistic, the decisions they make will have an impact on your race almost all the time, AI actually make mistakes, which they never did on 2011, they don't always stick to the race line and back off into corners when your on the inside, they're alot more aggressive than before. If your tires puncture, it really effects your race, its a real struggle to get back into the pit, and the animation of the pop almost always spins you out, if you go on the grass/gravel/hit the apex you really feel the effects of it, where-as last year you could go over the grass/gravel and not lose any traction/grip. AI also get time penalties/drive through penalties, unlike last year.
I thought 2011 was brilliant, but 2012 has blown me away. Its not the new features that make this game brilliant, its the little tweaks they've done to improve what they already had last year, typical Codemasters, they're brilliant at what they do.

MGS2 and MGS3 are as good as ever, but I think Peacewalker is a port from the PSP or something. It feels incredibly basic in comparison to the others.

The first 20-30 hours or so of playing Skyrim was the best gaming experience I've had in nearly a decade, so yes.

Been hammering MGS2 today, got pretty far, can't wait to get onto Snake Eater seeing as I never gave it a proper go.

Looks amazing.

Is that the one they had at Eurogamer? I never got near it but it looked immense.
Franck
Pre-ordered that the other day.
The physics engine from Forza in a Test Drive Unlimited-style open gameworld should be absolutely awesome. Only thing that worries me is the whole "music festival" theme the game supposedly has.

What's the point of pre-ordering if they can't get it to me on release day? I even paid £5 extra for an express delivery option.

This is why they'll be dead by the end of the decade.

I'll take it if it's still up for grabs?

Basically you pay extra and every month they release new games for you to download. I paid £40 for a year back in the summer and since then I've had;
Infamous 2
Saints Row 2
Little Big Planet 2
Motorstorm Apocalypse
Deus Ex
Just Cause 2
Red Dead Redemption
Borderlands
Oddworld Strangers Wrath
Warhammer 40,000
Virtua Fighter 5
Darksiders
Plus plenty more and this month the new games are Resident Evil 5 and Bulletstorm.
Oh and you also get to try BETA versions of games and get discounts on games and stuff.

Thanks alot Matt.

Apparently the Forza Horizon demo is Gold exclusive and I've read some pretty bad things about it.

Such as?
I'm a pretty big fan of Forza and racing games in general, but the last open world one I played was Test Drive Unlimited 2, which was simply terrible and not a touch on the original and Forza simply doing a TD:U but with Forza mechanics isn't going to be enough.
