Life was simpler when this game came out

[nayj]

This game is nothing like need for speed... It's better

[TheMajorLeagueGinger]

And there will be a 2nd Forza Horizon being shown off at E3 supposely :P Also, Need for Speed Prostreet had a similiar theme to it with the whole music festival thing and trying to become the champion of the festival, but it was missing the open world aspect.

[whaweh]

This game introduce me to awesome band that ive never heard of.

[liambreen]

I swear to god if forza makes a new Open world game i will go mental!

I've played Forza 2, 3, and 4. When I heard what this was about I was excited, but in the back of my mind I didn't think it would be a good idea. I played the demo and bought the game, it's amazing. I don't regret it one bit.

[snelmau]

The map may a little small, but seriously, this is the best game I've played for a LONG timee!!!

@Latetzkill, it's part of a loading screen image from the demo. I agree with u it is an amazing shot!

Looks good is it going cheep at all, also I hate playing online, for 1 I work alot so find paying for xbox live is a waste and 2 I play games 2 carlm my self from a busy day so would hate some kids voice in my ear shouting away or chatting shit.

[GPow]

I do. I'm in school for game programming right now, and I've made a few of my own projects in the past, a few of which in XNA (which is compatable with W7, WP7, and Xbox).

$10 bucks on Xbox Live right now. Limited deal btw.

I wish Microsoft should relaunch Forza horizon 1 and 2 as remastered versions for Win 10., there is still demand for these racing games.

[TitanzDude]

@snx70 Not replacing the existing business model. They are simply branching out into other genres.

The Handling is a bit more forgiving, but its far from arcade (if you have most of the assists turned off). Use the Evo in the Demo, then try it out in Forza 4, it feels -very- similar. If you have most of the assists turned off its still quite possible to oversteer into a turn and hit a guard rail, or end up spinning out down the road. Is it just like Forza 4? No, but its no arcade racer. I can see why no tuning is annoying, but it would be hard to tune a car for "Colorado" compared to a track.

[icarusMeltdown]

It's not bad. The fun part of the customization is the vinyl personalization (100% customizable) but other car upgrades don't really show out that well apart some obvious ones like spoilers, rims, tires etc...

[AldrinorTalnier]

That's exactly why I picked this game up yesterday. It doesn't have the simulation damage that got me into Forza Motorsport, but it certainly makes me smile with how I can drive through the mountains instead of the usual routine when I play other Forza games. I wanted Forza Motorsport 4, but got this instead to take a good break from cranking number crunching cars and records and track simulations.

Also, turn off all the HUD markers/info, enjoy the view and uniqueness, it's a beautiful game.

[zenon]

In the main forza series people have been able to tune aspects of their cars to increase performance or customize the car for use on a specific track (tire pressures, gear ratios, suspension etc etc). I never tune myself cause i wouldn't know how so the fact that it isn't in this one doesn't affect me lol.

[MrLoveshoot]

I wonder if they changed the aspect where if you restart an event the song your listening to restarts aswell, it especially gets annoy on races that last 2 1/2 mins or lower.

[toypop]

The Viper you get for playing the demo will have expired by now, but you can still buy a yellow Viper with black stripes at any time you want. It's nothing special or anything, it's just a colour. The one you get for playing the demo had a unique design on it.

[OnTheRailTV]

So what is the best simulator racing game for Xbox 360?
