My only criticism is that the demo won't save your profile nor your achievements so you have to start over on every play.
Despite the above I still highly recommend checking out the demo, it's a blast!

Both cars were wrecked so much, they should've been totalled.
Whether it effects the driving or not can be turned on or off.

I can't even get the game to launch, get a splash screen and then nothing, same goes for Quantum Break, splash screen and then nothing. Windows 10 store apps really do suck at times.
I think it did that to me the first time i tried to play but now both demo's run fine. Try running it a few times.

Yeah, Microsoft reaaly needs to fix all of 10's bugs once and for all.
Play's perfectly fine for me so not sure which bugs you mean.

I noticed a huge flaw in a video of it on YouTube. 2 friends were racing through a river, land etc. Both kept crashing into things, both flipped their cars a few times. The game showed no damage to the cars at all.

Yeah, it and Forza Motorsport 6: Apex both play fine for me since I got my new video card. I'll have to get this in a few months. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt GOTY & Doom come first.
None of which will be for a month or two.
New keyboard & mouse are next month purchases, so I can sell my old pc.
Current keyboard & mouse are going with it. The new ones I get are gonna be gaming models and have rgb lighting.
