Forza 7 Users Experiencing Pre-Load Problems on PC

Microsoft recently enabled pre-loading for Forza Motorsport 7 ahead of the game's launch next week, and many users attempting to pre-load Forza 7 from the Windows Store have experienced a download error, resulting in hours of lost progress.

In an official statement made to US Gamer, a Microsoft representative said Forza developer Turn 10 Studios and Microsoft are looking into the problem. According to their statement they are actively working with the Windows Store team on a fix, but offered no time frame for when the issue might be resolved.

The error causes the game's nearly 100GB download to error out at random and restart from 0. Some users reported getting as far as 60GB into the download before experiencing the error. Depending on your internet speed, that could be hours of lost time. For users with data caps the issue is even greater, deterring them from retrying the download for fear of losing all their monthly data.

18 Games Released on Nintendo Switch This Week

Looking for something to play on the Nintendo Switch this week? Fear not, you have 18 new choices thanks to one of the system's biggest launch weeks yet.

While Nintendo has delivered a steady stream of games via the Switch's eShop since the system launched in March, few have been so dense as this one. While past Nintendo consoles like the Wii U faced criticism for having stretches of time in which nothing new and worthy of playing released, Nintendo is clearly looking to prevent that issue on the Switch.

Thanks to the abundance of announcements of Nindies, third-party games, which Nintendo has clearly been aiming to acquire, and more, the Switch's library continues to expand. Of course, that means not every game may be a must-play for the week, but there are a variety of genres and art styles represented with this week's lineup.

RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic Comes to Steam Today

RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic, which remasters features from the first two games, is out now on Steam.

Atari and original creator Chris Sawyer have teamed up for RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic. It's not a compilation of the first entries in the sim series, but instead an original game that builds off of them, somewhat similar to what SEGA recently did with Sonic Mania.

The game boasts 95 park scenarios, as well as has add-ons like the Scenario Editor Toolkit, Wacky Worlds and Time Twister.

"When I created the RollerCoaster Tycoon series nearly two decades ago, I never imagined that so many people all over the world would still enjoy the game today," said Sawyer in a statement.
