more tracks more cars, better graphics supposedly, image based lighting, time of day, erm, better handling (simulation steering option) with brand new tyre data from pirelli and autovista 
 
in fairness my opinion is the graphics dont look much better, although iv not compared side by side. 
 
and it does feel a lot better handling wise, eg actual lift of oversteer this time better tyre grip feeling especially using sim steering which supposedly provides no steering input at all eg raw

I'll probably wait until this drops to around £15. Have payed full price for the last 2 and got bored after a couple of months 
 
They just don't hold my interest as much as other games

Same. Generally driving games are very tedious.

The game is dreadful   Demo Physics on Simulation are absolutely ridiculous, it's like playing Ridge Racer. It's a shame that they seem to have taken a more 'arcade' style with the game, it feels like I was playing NFS Pro street. 
 
Forza always had great car modification stuff, but unfortunately if the physics remain like this in the real game, it'll be shit for anything other than drifting. 
 
e.g. my car has gone sideways, to correct it I just let go of the stick and it performs the most perfect power slide round the bend... This is on simulation

I have the same view as you Paul vie found you get better steering response by just using normal setting rather than simulation. Simulation with all aids off is just wank

It's a console arcade game. Don't expect too much...

I do think people expect a bit much. The game play is better, better cars, backfires, flames etc. The traffic is quite fun. Going to be just like driving a tourist day on the Ring. I love the game, but then I never really get a game hyped up in my head
