XBOX GOLD Membership/Game Pass Ultimate Required. Here is the link to Microsoft Store

The price isn't as low as $14 from CDKeys or the all-time low $0.02 from Target around 3 months ago. However, you are actually dealing with official Microsoft Store and not third party websites. This is a cheaper option at the moment if you have missed the deal previously or not interested to get it from any third party websites.

Don't forget you can get 5.5% cashback from either Cashrewardsor Shopback, which brings total price down to $18.87.

Update: It's still showing the $19.97 price tag at the moment

  But if you have game pass already, aren’t you just gonna play Horizon 4?

    Depends, I do play Horizon 4 with gamepass but I feel like getting a bit dull coz the missions/stories are completed.

    Horizon 4 is a lot worse in quite a few ways imo, more than just the obvious of not being set in Australia at least.

    I still think its worth checking out Horizon 3.

  Is there a way to transfer my game pass to someone else?

    I don't think so but you can share your game pass with others on the same Xbox.

    AFAIK if you logon 2 different accounts to the same Xbox console, they should have access to the downloaded games on the same Xbox (whoever owned the games and downloaded it with gamepass).

    However, I DO NOT recommend doing it with others unless the other person is part of your housemates/family/best friends.

      This. Only with someone you really trust.

        I've set up a long random password and disabled auto-login with the controller from settings.

        I know some people in real life end up creating a new account then share with a few others who can be trusted, then split the bill with evenly. This is how they can access the services all at the same time without paying the full price of the game pass.

        I do not recommend people doing it unless another person is trustworthy, like your family members.

  Still think 3 is better than 4.

    Agreed, I play 3 more than 4 and I love the map much better than 4’s one

      Although with 4 you do get wheelspins where you can win green sequin pants, pink sunglasses, gum boots with ducks on them and diamond encrusted gloves!

      Sigh.

        And I think 2 may be my favourite, but I find myself spending lots (most) of time playing 1.

        What a series, I love them all and each one feels like an exoticism holiday to me, they don't date.

        My One X is really just my Forza box. And it was all worth every cent.

          @xdirex: The first Horizon game on the xbox360 was fantastic and I preferred the feel of that one in that you start off as a rookie driver making your way through the ranks. That game and Forza 4 were the main reasons I bought an xbox360 at the time.

  For someone who is totally new to racing games but interested, do you need a wheel and pedals to enjoy it?

  I'm looking to play from a laptop but not sure if it is even powerful enough (one of the highest spec Microsoft book 2)

    Definitely not powerful enough

      ok :( thanks

      Those laptops have 10 Series Nvidia GPUs actually, so they should run more than fine.

    You're actually better off using a controller than wheels/pedals as the Horizon games sometimes have issues with wheels (especially FH4) and they work very well with the Xbox controllers (for both Xbox and PC).

    If you have the highest spec Surface Book 2 with the Nvidia 1060 GPU, you will definitely be able to run the game. That GPU can handle even the newest Forza game, so it'll run FH3 just fine.

    And to agree with others - this game is definitely best played with a controller. The Xbox One controller is the best at the moment, and this game should play nicely with a controller on your laptop - would definitely recommend!

  According to this link, the highest spec would be a quad core with a gtx 1060. This is definitely high enough spec to play this game and quite well at that. If you could give your actual specs I will give you an accurate answer on whether you can play it on your laptop. https://www.microsoft.com/en-au/p/surface-book-two/8mcpzjjcc…

  Still available, for a few more minutes

• 

  BooYa on 12/05/2020 - 10:22

  Actually, once the minutes ticked down to zero, the timer reset to 9 more hours at the same discounted price.

  Very sneaky M$

  But you have a few more hours to get it, if you want it.

  Btw it says I own the game, but I can't remember buying it lol.

  I checked the game pass and games with gold, and it wasn't in either one, so I may have actually bought it (possibly in another region like the US or Canada).

  But it says that I can play it now, or buy it, so I don't know wth is going on with this game.
