If it’s set in space, Andy will probably write about it. He loves sci-fi, adventure games, taking screenshots, Twin Peaks, weird sims, Alien: Isolation, and anything with a good story.

In the middle of a race it's easy to miss the remarkable amount of care and attention that's gone into modelling every car in Forza Motorsport 6: Apex. Fortunately the game lets you float around your vehicles to admire every carefully sculpted surface. Zoom in on an engine and you'll see manufacturer logos, look closely at a roll cage and you'll see welding marks. We can't stop staring at these beautiful cars, so we put together a 4K gallery so you can stare too.
