Demo only on Xbox One
Starting from 16 September, you can download a demo of Playground Games' open world racer Forza Horizon 2, two weeks before it launches. However, the demo's only coming to Xbox One.
Which is a kick in the trousers for Xbox 360 owners. Still, grab your Xbox One (or a friend's, with their permission) and give the demo a good seeing to when it hits mid next month. There's no word yet whether it'll resemble the demos that were on show at E3, Gamescom or PAX, but you'll be able to see if you're happy with the Xbox One version running at 1080p, 30fps. I suspect you will/won't/don't care as long as it's fun.
