Okay this is getting weird.  I think this is the third or fourth thread recently that I have seen Parcells refer to himself as "I".  Where is Parcells and what have you done to him?

yeah, I have to agree with Parcells, ...ummm, yeah, there's more iconic track spots than that. Sorry, almost blacked out for a sec...

Canada Corner? It's a 90 degree right hander typically taken at under 100 mph... I respectfully disagree. EauRogue is taken flat out. G forces and compression are ridiculous. Here is some on board...

Corkscrew more iconic...I've seen phots and instantly known where it was taken, even in the lower half...

I agree with Parcells, corkscrew may be the more iconic in the good old USA. For the rest of the world I do believe it would be Eau Rouge.

Parcells is just trying to get under Oldschools skin thats all. Sort of like how do you keep an idiot in suspense?

Spa has been confirmed for Forza 5.  Snappy posted an link with some fantastic looking screen shots.  In between those pics I caught this little blurb.

http://www.push-start.co.uk/all/articles/news/latest-gaming-news/screenshots/gamescom-new-forza-5-screenshots-two-tracks-announced/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=gamescom-new-forza-5-screenshots-two-tracks-announced

Quote:
Two new tracks have been announced for the Xbox One exclusive title Forza Motorsport 5.  The two newly announced tracks are none other than the returning Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca and an all new track to the series, Spa-Francorchamps.

Here are some official details for the Spa-Francorchamps:

Nestled in the Ardennes countryside of Belgium, the 4.3-mile Spa track is home to legendary corners like “La Source” and “Eau Rouge” and has been one of the most requested tracks from fans since the Forza series’ beginning. Laser-scanned and meticulously recreated at 1080p and 60fps, Spa makes its franchise debut in “Forza Motorsport 5.

Call Parcells totally shocked by this recent and exciting news. Now if the whole Fanatec wheel problem gets resolved I might just find myself with a copy of FM5 and a new console later in the year. 

btw, having crow for dinner tonight :)

Pre-oreder your copy of the game and console now. The Fanatec wheel issue may not be resolved by day one but eventually it will (I'm guessing). Besides, you can always cancel your pre-order if the wheel issue isn't worked out and make some poor guy who didn't pre-order very happy when you cancel yours. I'm predicting extremely high demand for both these consoles come this holiday season. There will be shortages for sure.

This does it for me! I'm in! Anyone recommend the best place to preorder in the UK? Can I preorder the box with a digital Forza5?
