Was Forza Motorsport 5 Really That Bad?

I remember being so excited for the game to launch, following the huge success of Forza Motorsport 4, I felt everyone was excited for this game… unfortunately, the game was not as good as we were hoping, or was it? Well today that’s what I’m going to look at and hopefully find out if Forza Motorsport 5 was actually that bad.

I am still here wondering why Microsoft never made Forza Motorsport 4 backwards compatible on Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S

[superchargedboys]

Personally, I think this is a great game. I do remember a couple bad things, but for the time is was released, it had some great features

Still to this day Forza Motorsport 4 remains the best Motorsport game. I hope the series gets its mojo back on Series X

This game was a masterpiece, nothing bad about it imo

Forza 5 is my favourite Forza Motorsport game, it's fvcking awesome, and having the Top Gear guys in there narrating, and the Top Gear Challenges, racing against "The Stig's Digital Cousin", playing it for the first time was incredible. Forza 5 and Horizon 2 are probably the best racing games in the Xbox One/PS4 era. I don't know why people say this game "Sucks". Nothing about Forza 5 sucks. Y'all are off your fvcking rockers. -

It's amazing how much better this 2013 game is than the 2023 one

The only annoying thing about it was how so many of the cars were dlc

It was my first Forza game, so my opinion is quite positive.

Forza 5 and 6 feel like the same game but improved with updates whereas Forza 7 is downgraded with updates.

I just picked up an Xbox One X the other day which included this (and some other games). This is my first experience with Forza and I’ve been blown away at how fun and absolutely gorgeous it is, not to mention a bit overwhelmed at not only the car choices but all the upgrade and tuning options. I understand it has fewer options overall than F4, but for someone like me who never played any of their previous games, having spent the last decade on a 360, it’s been wonderful so far.

Any recommendations for others in the series? I’ve seen some videos on Horizon 4 and it looks like loads of fun.

But I will always love Motorsport 5 because playing it relaxes me and years ago when I first played it, it helped me get through a bad relationship ending

3 years after this video has been released, I've gone back to Forza Motorsport 5...because Forza Motorsport 2023 is EVEN WORSE!

[yomo]

For me 7 is the best Forza. I've played them all and finished them. Never played 7 online though lol.

Isn't this the one where Nurburgring and Long Beach were added later?

I used to be upset about the lack of content but now I’ve played Forza Motorsport 7 I appreciate the atmosphere and attention to detail that Fm7 simply didn’t have. Fm5 is still not my favorite because i love Fm4, 3, 2 and 6 way more but still i think this game didn’t get the love it needed

[peterskorec]

I mean Jeremy with all those voiceovers what’s better. I bought this game and Xbox one only because I wanted P1 in my TopGear that I used to do. So the game has special space in my heart. Having said that 6 and 7 are obviously better so Yes please revisit them 😃

This game was meant to be played with all the simulation parameters turned on.

Hi, I came across your channel this morning, I have to say that I agree with you on Forza 5. Though it was a stunningly beautiful game it lacked so many other things that 4 had.

[rouvencocker]

It was fun, just limited. I like after each race it would have the fastest times not only in the race but friends as well as world.
EDIT: Yeah they cut costs big time with the OST.

FM5 was really good, just not as good as FM4
