Excuse me?

Then, when trying to configure my controller, I find that the wheel isn't recognized at all.
Lag, with everything on Low.

Uninstalled it, good thing I didn't pay 70
Retired from modifying Midtown Madness games. Nowadays I mod Crashday Redline Edition in my spare time.

Don't be so sure about that, just take a look on the reviews section of the full game on the store to get an idea. Horizon 3 is poorly optimized and laggy (saying this without having tried on my pc yet), so if the demo works like that, odds are so does the full version - after all, what sense would it make for them to give such a bad impression of the game on the demo, and then the game itself actually works better?

Honestly I'll pass this... At least for now, my finances aren't that great to burry 60 euros on another game that in 6 months will be for half the price. I'm considering going for Mad Max Videogame or the Fallout 4 Season Pass, I can get both for a great price.

In other news: Microsoft released a new version of Forza Apex, called Premium, which besides of the base free game also includes a bunch of new cars and a couple new tracks [read: more stuff ripped from Forza 6]. As you might have already guessed - it's paid, and costs 16,99$. Apparently Microsoft is taking inspiration from The Crew. If for some odd reason you're intrested on this, feel free to read the official announcement, here.

Yesterday I've finally tried the demo. It's a great demo, offers a lot of content to really know how the game will work and it didn't ran that bad on my PC as I was expecting. On low graphics, yet with FXAA antialiasing, it looked quite nice and with a good framerate (I wasn't able to make FRAPS work with it but it felt at the 25/30). But, unfortunately, I experienced a slight input lag that really made things quite bad, dunno if this will be ever fixed. Otherwise, I'd grab the game if they made a discount in a few months.
