These devs delivery every damn time. Crazily consistent.

this game deserves nothing but 10's across the board. Only game so far this gen, that truly gives you the most out of your console.

Bought my Series S yesterday and have already pre-installed this.

I love how playground delivers so much to us even though it's a car game compared to other games.

Another classic Horizon game. Playground can give a master class on how to make a great arcade racer.

I don’t know how much complex mathematics and programming is involved when developing racing games like this, especially open world racers where terrain and weather and physics and how they interact with each other and change from vehicle to vehicle all just makes my head spin

Just bought an OLED tv, thinking this will look amazing on it

I'm always down for a new Horizon game, just give a beautiful new location and a great soundtrack and I'm set. The core gameplay is so highly polished and refined it's hard to get any better

I envy the Xbox gamers for this series ! (GT Sport and DriveClub doesn't even come close)

Used to play Project Gotham Racing 3 on my 360 though !

For anyone looking for a quick review, this game is absolutely worth trying with game pass or buying for $60. The only issues I have with the game are servers, which is to be expected judging from the fact that the game is only 1 week old. Aside from that, amazing graphics, good in game music, cool cars, good car sounds, customization, etc… 9.5/10 for now, 10/10 is the servers were a little better!

[themblan]

You actually pronounced Forza correctly. Kudos.

[SaltyChip]

If you enjoyed Daytona in reverse against the flow of traffic… then this game is for you.

This is the only Xbox exclusive that makes me envious of Xbox gamers at the moment. I hope GT7 delivers when it drops on PS5, though I doubt it will.

[AussieGamerPlays]

10/10 from gaming bolt, 9.5 here, 9.0 IGN ...ACG full of praise. I'll continue to watch because the salt is already beginning to snow ha

[latchdoorlatch]

Not a x box user but this does look impressive 👍🏻

[MisterNorthernCanuck]

Our name is Playground, and we're printing millions in 12 hours. Good day!

any review featuring the word cornucopia is a winning review imo

[extazzy]

My first forza game was 3 and I just liked it. Then 4 came out after a few months and somehow I just didn't like it that much. The cars did sound worse and the map was just not that pleasant to my eye. This game looks so good with a variety of terrains, a long highway, way better engine sounds...I instantly bought premium edition and I never did that with other games since now. I also have to mention that I am a FPS fan but this game must be played by everyone.

[dooleh]

I'm watching before not ever buying it. That's some nice looking stuff I can't play on my PS5...

[jubei]

These devs track record is incredible.
