The day we can get a game with detail/Graphics of Forza, scale of Crew/TDU, and customization of NFS. That will be the ultimate game.

Nfs Heat: style
FH5: quality
Crew 2: Diversity

The crew 2 has become the only non-sim racing game I play. The very fact I can do a 40 minute race is enough to put it on the top of my list. I'm a big fan of endurance racing and finding long, non-sim races when I want to chill was difficult until I found the crew 2.

[izzyraj]

The Crew 2 is the only one for me because of that MASSIVE map. Even if I don't feel like racing, I can just go for a drive and even today I'll still find something new. I haven't explored the entire map yet. It keeps you interested.

[ScrapKing]

I don't even think of Forza Horizon 5 as a racing game. It's a driving game. I can play it for days while I do solo challenges, or explore the map, without ever entering a race. Amazing game. I think of Forza Horizon as being structured like an adventure game (with a main quest, side quests, a progression system, etc.). I haven't played the other two yet.

[anujsansare]

Having played all three, I must say FH5 is MILES better as a complete package

[craicshotgaming]

Great comparison. I've yet to play Horizon 5 but I will say that the way The Crew 2 has been supported and updated by the devs over the past few years has been commendable, they've really kept it relevant. Looking forward to booting up Forza on games pass later though 👍🏻

[TandemSix]

An unbiased comparison, that's what I like to see 🤙🏻

[Masternaldo]

After playing Crew 2 the new Forza 5 map feels so tiny and I'll miss the long 20min+ races

[still_guns]

It should be noted that Heat is no longer being updated, whereas Forza is still early in its lifecycle and even The Crew 2 is still being updated.

[seraphimvalkyrin]

If The Crew 2 just had the handling of Forza and got a graphical update (Like the first game did) and a fps boost to 60 I would put it even higher then FH5.

I must say, I love the Forza Horizon series (played all of them), but for me the new one did get old fast. It just didn't really do anything new besides looking amazing and I miss the huge concrete cities. I just wish that at this point it would have more then just cars.

[Commando_]

My favorite is NFS. It may not be the best in terms of map size, but the setting and insane customization is what makes me prefer it.

[TTMScissors]

I love the Crew 2. Just the fact that there is a race across the US and you drive trough New York, Las Vegas and much more makes it so chill and good. Plus boats and planes

[masterweapon]

I don’t really play racing games, but I absolutely love The Crew 2. The graphics are pretty great to me, and I love how the cars handle :)

[hawken]

Haven't played FH5 yet, but I loved palm city and how fun it was to drive there. I just roamed around a lot and remember a lot of places for how unique they were.

[angelserrano]

I like that they are all different because if we had just one “perfect game” we will get bored so fast with no alternatives. I don’t always want to play an arcade racer and I don’t always want to play a simcade racer so it’s best that they are all different with their own styles. When you can afford to buy all of them you don’t have to pick just one. It solely depends on the mood.

[WubbaDubba]

NFS highlights the awesomeness of the car scene: crazy visual customization, engine swaps, running from the law, which is why there aren't a lot of cars, its meant to be ONLY the cool stuff. FH5 adds realism without sacrificing any fun: driving tight and properly braking is key to winning, when customizing you consider car weight, aerodynamics, all that car junkie good stuff. The Crew 2 is essentially a giant sandbox with a good bit of everything: good car customization, good sounds, good visuals, and there's always something to do, just ignore the driving physics and ur good. FH5's visual customization is nowhere near Heat or The Crew 2 tho, something to keep in mind

[Ken-ssen]

I absolutely love just relaxing and cruising around the map of The Crew 2!

[gregregation]

There is nothing like the thrill and sense of speed that NFS:H provides. Even though it feels far more arcade-y than Forza, I just love the progression system and how it rewards you for the risks and races your take.

[berkkarsi]

You forgot that in the Crew 2 you have Pro Settings which lets you customize the performance and handling. It shows up at the bottom when you're in the performance section of a car. Other than that, an amazing, objective video 👍
