Forza fans may hate this game, but I absolutely love it. The game has something very crucial that is missing from other Forza games which is a human element. The world is absolutely beautiful. The cars look and sound great. The music, even if you hate the genres, gave the game a sense of independence, freedom and youth. This is easily one of the most entertaining and atmospheric games I have played. Cars actually handle like cars and not just moving objects on a central pivot like most other car games. The game is not phenomenal by any means but really fun to play. If you judge this game as a Forza title it is terrible but if you take it as it's own game it is a good and absorbing game.
Joshua Graham The funny thing is that this forza shouldn't exist... Forza only releases every 2 yrs... this game is just a spin-off of forza for anyone who is interested in a game like this. They didn't have to buy this game and they weren't entitled to anything. This was a bonus for forza fans. MS assembled this team to make an amazing semi-open world forza game... but they were working with old hardware and were expected to bring the visuals and new ideas and make it open-world and make it smooth but to do that they had to drawback on the amazing handling. This turned me off but it was still a great game. If they could make the handling amazing again like forza 4/5 it will be right up there with The Crew.
The first Horizon is still my favorite. Enjoy the cutscenes and actual stations at each race site instead of a sign above your car. Also find the first one to be the most scenic from canyons, deserts, forest, mountains, waterfalls and autumn leaves road.
It's an amazing game but the gameplay is still far inferior to forza 4. It just doesn't have the same handling as forza 4 did. That is what it really is missing. As well as the force feedback in the controller.
***** There's a different between having arcade handling and just shit handling. Forza's handling was fantastic and I always knew when I had to break and the gameplay felt smooth... I feel like in forza horizon, I was always bumping into shit to keep me progressing through the race. The gameplay also wasn't very good. I love arcade racers like grid 2 and split/second, but the gameplay in Forza horizon just wasn't good imo.
+K.H. Well if you are going to get Forza Horizon 2 DO NOT get it on the Xbox 360. So much content was cut out of the full game including cars, its better if you have an Xbox One. FH is much better on the 360 compared to FH2 on the 360
One thing that stays deep in my memory drive, anyone remember the Netsky remix of everyday, that is what sums Forza Horizon up, making you enjoy the open road and go completely bonkers. Barrel rolling the car, listening to Tuneless FM, whatever you want, you got it!! Forza Horizon to me, every game in the franchise just feels right
@@unknownplayer23 who tf you talking to I’m a 26 year old man and you’re replying to a seven year old comment. Find something productive to do with your day you bum
Roger ummm no 🙄 need for speed needs to go back to the underground/most wanted days, what I liked about NFS is that it’s separated itself from the rest of the racing games.
Not really. Besides of prostreet and shift series. The game still get huge success among those newest titles. Just go check the sales, ranking and statics.
This game looks fucking awesome. I'm a PS3 guy and it makes me wanna buy a 360 just to play it. Although I do have to say, they're kind of copying MotorStorm with the whole 'wild racing festival' concept. This game basically looks like an urban, open world version of MotorStorm for the 360, which is definitely a good thing. But at the end of the day they are kind of stealing the idea of MotorStorm. I just wish this game was on PS3...
it doesnt matter, there is enough variation in bolt on parts that you can get the desired effect you want. (IE cams vs turbos, short vs long gears) Basically you can make a short track car and a top speed car just by picking your parts carefully. and drifting is the same
Lol how ironic that people didn’t estimate this game and loved it as much when it got released, but now they praise the game. I personally did enjoy it, and it’s still for me the best Forza Horizon game ever played. This did feel like a “festival” unlike FH4 which has felt more like an arcade game than a sim arcade. Never underestimate games like these, because a lot of people did under appreciated this game, but now feel regret for it. This was a real Forza Horizon festival game here. Playground did its job well here. I hope they remember this game and go back to its classic roots in FH5.
Got this game 2 weeks ago. Currently addicted like I'm on cocaine... We need Horizon 2! With cops! And less Ferraris for christ's sake.... They could have got rid of 5 Ferraris and freed up a spot for the SLS AMG, McLaren F1, Daytona Charger, and some others...
***** I can assure you, I would not make that comment if every car I mentioned was available standard. Also, the Daytona Charger isn't even on the game... Seriously go look.
***** The last thing we need is cops in Horizon 2. We don't need another NFS or The Crew. There is something so satisfying about flying down the highway in my Aston Martin at night just to see the festival in the distance without... We oooo we oooo... I don't want to be pulled over trying to go through speed traps or trying to challenge somebody to a street race... I just want them to stay true to their game and not try and be like any other game.
bob fred True. It was just odd hearing them talk about cops on the radio only to have them never appear in-game... Also, I'm not sure how having cops automatically means they're copying NFS (you weren't serious right?) Plenty of other racing games have cops, if ONLY to add extra realism. There is literally no consequences for getting pulled over in some games...
***** I meant a clone of those particular games because NFS is based around cops and The Crew is also an open world racing game (forza being more semi-open world obviously) but again... It just would be annoying and would drawback on the game. They shouldn't have talked about cops but they should stick to their roots. What would cops do in the game anyways? As you're racing 10 mph over the speed limit listening to music a cop is gonna try and pull you over? The whole scenario sounds dumb. I can just imagine myself listening to a freaking queen song while a cop is chasing me... it just doesn't make any sense with the content already in the game.
Another hint, buses can't backup so if you can manuver them against a wall or fence , their stuck until you drive away a mile or so then when you come back there gone and traffic is back to normal
I give it a 9.9/10. Driving stick is really fun. I just hate the class restrictions, but they do make sense. The soundtrack could have been a lot better too. But this game is really fun and it wont get old too fast
the full car list has been shown by people who had the game for review. there are 127 purchasable cars that were shown off and then there are a couple of unicorn cars that turn ten has already revealed and barn finds which i think they already revealed.
i'm admittedly a playstation fan, but gran turismo has never really appealed to me, games like this are pretty much the reason i bought a 360 and am considering getting a one s
KerrDogga As a One S owner myself (currently playing both Horizon 1 & 3 religiously), I am certainly beyond thrilled at how easy it was to transition from a Ps4 to the One. I certainly do recommend nabbing the One S over other current models, as its greatly reduced size (nearly half the size of the original One), built-in power block, conveniently rearranged ports, buttons, and wire inputs/outputs, as well as its sleek glossy white design combine for an absolutely amazing console experience overall. My sudden Xbox One S fanboyism aside, I absolutely do recommend that you wait for a good deal to grab the One S, as there have been quite a few deals on bundles that have been popping up the past few weeks. Happy gaming, mi amigo.
I. Can't. Freaking. WAIT! Where FM4 had you on the Top Gear track, this game makes you feel like you're IN an episode! Road testing cars, giving your opinion, hanging out with your buddies and then seeing who can win a short race. Dodging traffic and praying that the next corner doesn't have a humungous SUV just WAITING to smash in the front of your favorite muscle car. Weirdly enough, this is all stuff I gathered from playing the DEMO! Long before I just watched this review. YAY! :D
im assuming (but i want to be sure) that you are still able completely customize your car as incolor decals etc... right? can someone please confirm this asap
sooo..... Test drive unlimited 2 or forza horizon? I have not played either and do not know what to get...although i do like the house buying and interactive "partying" aspect of TDU2 please help me ;) thanks!
To be fair, Top Gear stuff being put in Forza was because the BBC were pissed at GT for using the Top Gear license but not actually doing anything with it, other than the test track. Forza approached them and used it way better. You get the track, car bowling and football, the actual camera angles from the show during replays and Clarkson's narration. I like both games, but credit where it's due, Forza did the Top Gear stuff way more effectively than GT5 did.
Been playing for the first time, how did I miss this gem in the past? Even playing on xb1 games for gold it feels like a new game. Horizon 3 will be on pre order this week :-)
So were you dissapointed? I got it Friday too but have been holding abck on opening it, cause I played the demo and was dissapointed with the physics and some other things!

it really comes down to what you want. if you want police chases, buy most wanted, if you want a sim that can be tweaked as an arcade, buy this both games are very similiar tho
if you can afford a slightly higher price there is the Fanatec CSR wheel that is Xbox compatible(and even branded with the Forza logo) It is a very good wheel and i highly reccommend it with a decent set of Fanatec peddles
ArchmanGaming I know right! Forza Motorsport fans were skeptical at first, but as time passed they learned to embrace this Horizon series, btw there are over 9 million players in FH3
Forza 4 if youre into much more simulation, car tunning, car selection, you get the idea. Forza Horizon if youre into open world, dynamic days, story, prefer it between arcade and simulation instead of pure simulation, something like need for speed would be (the older ones) without the cops of course.
Just got this game, and even though I feel like Gran Turismo controls better, this is still SO fun. I love going and messing around in an R1 viper and feeling completely powerful over any rival I can find, and making e-drifts to improve my popularity, and just exploring the open world.

Because 'true fans' of any gaming franchise can't seem to deal with change.

bob fred the crew is way WAY more arcadey than this game.

True, but I was comparing the two as both have open worlds to drive around in.
And how is it terrible as far as forza?
The first Horizon is still my favorite. Enjoy the cutscenes and actual stations at each race site instead of a sign above your car. Also find the first one to be the most scenic from canyons, deserts, forest, mountains, waterfalls and autumn leaves road.
This game is so underrated.
It's an amazing game but the gameplay is still far inferior to forza 4. It just doesn't have the same handling as forza 4 did. That is what it really is missing. As well as the force feedback in the controller.
bob fred its not meant to be a realistic driving game... Its suposed to be in the middle of sinulation and arcade
*****
It's not about the driving being "more realistic or arcade"... I don't care. It just feels worse than that of forza 4.
bob fred well its not supposed to be forza 4 its an arcade racing game not a sim game

if you can afford a slightly higher price there is the Fanatec CSR wheel that is Xbox compatible(and even branded with the Forza logo) It is a very good wheel and i highly reccommend it with a decent set of Fanatec peddles
Depends if you like open world or tracks.
I hope they make a Horizon 2. Seeing how big the new open-world games are gonna be, a new Horizon on X1 would be RIDICULOUS.
Yeah a Forza spin of fast forward 5 years later and it's now a well known racing series
ArchmanGaming I know right! Forza Motorsport fans were skeptical at first, but as time passed they learned to embrace this Horizon series, btw there are over 9 million players in FH3
does this game still have all the good custamizations
Forza Horizon is a separate series from the usual Forza series.
Do you think that by any chance this game will also be a PS3 game? I want it so much, it looks so great yet I own a PS3 and not a XBOX.
The guy was confused, he throught he was instant messaging his brother.
How good is the dlc for it? If they are good. Then I will purchase it
Which one shall I go for? This or need for speed most wanted?
The main Forza series is brill but the Horizon side series is sublime
The Dukes of Hazzard Charger looked amazing can't wait to make one.
We need even more customization options!
Can you add more cars to it? Porsche 918 spyder,bug atti 16.4, bug atti veyron vitesse, my son wants these cars on there
Forza 4 if youre into much more simulation, car tunning, car selection, you get the idea.
Forza Horizon if youre into open world, dynamic days, story, prefer it between arcade and simulation instead of pure simulation, something like need for speed would be (the older ones) without the cops of course.
so you compare gt5 with tdu and nfs ? cmooon
