There’s just something about the “older” forza’s that is so much better than the new ones. The map is a big one. Used to be a lot more packed with detail, lots of small hidden areas. All this faded out in 5 in my opinion. I remember the hype for this game, it was insane.
For one thing back in 2016 they were allowed to put real music in the games, and FH4 still had CHVRCHES. I still listen to a playlist of music found in FH3 and FH4 every day. FH5 radio is so boring I never even turn it on.
@@worthy7834 This might be a total hot take but I prefer the grind closer to what we had in FH3. Not exactly what we had in FH3, but right now in Horizon 5 I have hundreds of wheelspins unused and I don't dare start one because it's going to take at least an hour just to cycle through them all. Horizon 4/5 reward you SO much that rewards are actually 100% meaningless. Oppositely, the wheelspins mean something in Horizon 3, I always use them and I appreciate it as a reward. Should the wheelspin mechanism be done away with entirely? Probably, but if we're going to pretend to be gambling addicts then the gambling in Horizon 3 is way more fun.
This is easily my favourite horizon game. I put hundreds of hours into it and still love it to this day. It just feels more alive and fun to play than the newer games.
Australia is just a beautiful location, just as Hawaii in Motorfest. FH3 is still online, guys. KEEP PLAYING IT, so they might postpone the server shutdown further into the future. I feel like FH3 will be shut down in 2025, but if we keep playing it at least every week or so and we're lucky, we can push it's end to 2026 or even 2027 🤝🏻💙
FH3 was my first Forza game, as it was the first Horizon that was native to PC as well. I remember seeing the mass confusion on Reddit and the likes when the Hot Wheels expansion was announced... in hindsight, between that and being the festival boss really solidified the arcade-y "You have everything, do whatever you want" type of vibe the series has become known for. Really need to come back, watching this I realized I never touched Blizzard Mountain >.>
I remember seeing the E3 trailer for FH3 and i lost my mind seeing that it was based in australia. By far one of my favourites. My first Horizon was Colorado. Jumped on horizon 2 when i got my Xbox One in december 2014. Pre-ordered every horizon since
I happened to get myself a new physical copy of Forza Horizon 3 few months back, and man, each time I play this game makes me feel like I'm unlocking a nostalgia that I've never had before.
I started on fh3 in 2016 my parents got an Xbox just for this game and it was amazing I played it so much after school. Even tho there isn’t really any progression there was still festival upgrades to do which isn’t much but still better than what we got for progression and I even went back to fh2 and the progression was better in that game so we’ve gone backwards but I’m also Australian so this game is just amazing to us Aussies but the map is definitely better than the new ones and private lobby’s which will be missed
So glad to see this game still getting the recognition it deserves. I recently bought a disc copy after getting tired of FH4 and 5. I've found that there's really something special about this game, and I don't believe it's nostalgia. The atmosphere feels brighter and the world feels more authentic, I think. There are roads that I keep coming back to that I genuinely enjoy driving on, like the coastal roads or the canyon trail. Despite all of the additional content in FH5, it doesn't seem to mend the absence of an enjoyable world to explore. I also think that the color palette, along with the skybox and clouds are more appealing to the eye than in 4 or 5. The modern architecture of Surfer's Paradise is a breath of fresh air, and is beautifully integrated into the world as well
My favorite part of the online was meeting friends that I still play with to this day and the underwater glitch that let you drive underwater anywhere!! It was great!!
I got this game in 2018, and returned this year after a long hiatus, having NO idea that FH3 was two installments ago now. Having only done single-player roaming one it, I desperately want to find friends to play it with like Neptune1967 has!
Literally bought this after school when it came out, was just starting year 7 when it released. Now I'm 19, and to say the least, I miss this, made a really huge friendship, still friends to this very day. We both mostly play on PC rather than Xbox now, and its mostly Fivem. We did however, go back on it last night and the nostalgia hit us hard. Miss every single bit of this game. I personally start the FH series with FH2 in I think 2015 when my dad got an xbox one for his birthday that came with FH2. I really do miss both FH games :(
FH3 was my first introduction to the Forza series. My nephew had it on his Xbox he had the Hot Wheels expansion. Now I own all five Forza games on disc. Three is my favorite and the hot wheels expansion was 100x better than the one we got in 5. Sadly I don't have the expansions for FH3.
my mom bought fh3 in 2017 to me but i was crying allday with a ps4 untill i got a series x last year and i have been playing my dream game for a year now and never get bored of it
FH3 was my not only my first Horizon game, but also my very first Forza game. And it will always be my favorite!! Horizon 3 just is the best Horizon game ever made!
We need to convince the devs to give you a way to get the expansions.!!!! I would pay so much money to get all of the cars and expansions that I now can’t get to work
FH3 was my first Horizon, and I love to play it until now, even more than FH5. The map is just beautiful, the music, the vibe. The Hot Wheels is imo so much better in FH3. It's just hard getting used to go back to a garage to change the car, but it's just a small thing. I have to check out the Blizzard Mountain, I just barely even touched it back then. The one issue I have is PC optimisation, I remember it was a pain running it on a lower end system back then, while FH4 was much easier to run.
Man this reminds me of a long time ago... I remember preordering this game before it came out in 2016, got the Ultimate Edition in store with the steel book, got the shirt that Horizon 3 that came with it later on tho... I remember being excited as hell when the day it came out finally happened. Four days before everyone else, a whole weekend with nothing planned or anything to do, I had it all to myself. Even got to use my parent's 4K TV for it, despite having the OG Xbox One at the time. Starting up the game, I didn't sleep until four in the morning the next day hahahah... it's weird to me now that it was all that long ago. I was 14 at that point when Hot Wheels came out and man, that hits different now. I remember helping a guy who was a TH-camr with some Forzathon themed videos where he did the challenges, he must've had a few thousand subscribers at that point, and he was a super chill dude. Really was. I actually followed him and was in every livestream because I became a fan. Got to play some online lobbies with him and man, that was awesome. I also loved being a Kiwi (born in New Zealand), who had been raised his whole life in Australia, because I could tell people in America, Canada, Europe, even Russia at one point, that the map was incredibly accurate. Like it had every theme of Australia as areas, and that really made it special. Also went through a few gamertags during then.... thunderbailz, T4ND3MTHUND3R, DeadRexGaming, SIL3NTxK1LL, x98OCT4N3V8x and then more recently, AYEEExUNCLE. Times change quickly man.
6:25 FH3 was the goat, I still remember when the Blizzard Mountain expansion dropped. My first Horizon game was the first Horizon in summer of 2013! Been hooked on racing games since. Stuff like the original Motorsport, Gran Turismo, and Need For Speed back in the day just never did it for me. Horizon really got me into that genre of games.
FH3 was my very first xbox game after i got xbox one s included hot wheels expansion bundle on my birthday on Nov 29th at age 18 and gift came in Dec 2nd 2017, this game is gives me the best experience with very first achievements, almost 7 years and never gets bored and enjoying myself everytime i revisiting my beloved game, FH3 is my far most favorite game in my life, it gives me a good old days :')
FH3 was my first forza game but i think i had it like a few months before FH4 came out and oh man ive played fh5 for hours and hours but i just got fh3 again on the xbox series X and played it for like maybe 30mins because i didnt have time.. those 30 minutes were more fun than my 'hours and hours' of playing FH5
I remember playing FH3 on a school field trip and was just blown away by how amazing the graphics and map for a next gen game at the time, I regret rejecting the Xbox one my parents got me for my birthday in 2017
Hey Stevio2175 and everyone, I got Forza Horizon 3 it was my first real car game I played on my Xbox One Console Standard Version 500GB I love the game and I miss the Game. I like and listen to the soundtrack a lot when I play when Racing with races and I like the cars too and game play. I got my Xbox One Standard Version 2017 for Christmas. I play my other games in 2018-2019. August or September or December Fall or winter 2019 before the game ended a year later I got it at GameStop and it was not a newer version, it was a used version. I subscribed and turned on Notifications and been watching Stevio2175 since 2018-2019.
This is the game that reawakened my once dormant love for Hot Wheels! When the Hot Wheels DLC came out in May of 2017, a great deal of my Hot Wheels cars were accurately recreated in FH3. Examples include the following: 1. Johnny Lightning 1970 AMC Rebel Machine. 2. Hot Wheels '69 Corvette (Recreated using in-game 1970 Corvette). 3. Hot Wheels '63 Corvette (Recreated using in-game 1967 Corvette). 4. Hot Wheels '66 Chevy Nova. 5. Hot Wheels Chevy Stocker (Recreated using in-game 1988 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS). 6. Matchbox Mazda RX-7. 7. 1970 Plymouth Superbird (Recreated using in-game 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona. 8. Hot Wheels Twin Mill. 9. Matchbox 1930s Model A Ford (Recreated using in-game 1932 Ford Deluxe). 10. Hot Wheels '71 AMC Javelin AMX. OMG, 8 Years!!! Love the nostalgia!!
I played FH3 on launch, put it down, came back to it a few years later, put it down, and I'm coming back again right now. This time, I'm going to finish what I started and get the last few remaining achievements (which are all the grindy ones lol)
It was and is still my favourite because of the music, the levelling progression, the online options and the setting. The physics in the newer FH's is noticably improved but its not enough to take the crown from FH3 imo.
I remember not going to school the day it came out and meeting a guy I used to go on and play with for a while after that day felt just like yesterday can’t believe it’s been a long 8 years
I only played FH3 with online players one time, I was a single player guy for the rest of the time, and let me tell you that I enjoyed it more than FH4 and FH5 online. Interacting with drivatars was easily one of my favorite things to do. Recruiting random people into your festival and trying to get the best players was just fun. I still remember the gamertag of the first guy I added, and he always stayed because he had the best stats. I also remember the car meet by the airport. I spent HOURS just revving cars and looking around. I remember getting my first Horizon edition gtr, and it took me the full 2 years I played. I also spent all my time saving up for the Centanario and the Veyron, because when I got money I’d just spend it immediately. I haven’t had to save up for a car for Forza in forever. My FH5 account has 90 mil and I have all the cars, it’s just boring. FH3, even without online for me, was and is the best Forza game ever.
Just searched up videos like this as I started playing FH3 again this morning. The fps is a drag but it's still such a good game. Crazy I didn't get as far in as I thought but it basically means I have a whole new game to play!
Blizzard Mountain was so much fun. It's one of those times in life where I wished I had friends that cared about arcade style racers so I could show them all of the cool stuff that was in that expansion.
Seeing this brings back so many memories. Oh my word. 😔 I want to grind blizzard mountain again. I’d do anything to be able to go back, and grind blizzard mountain again, get the RS RX, and play infected, and other blizzard mountain races till 3 in the morning with random people like I did when I was a kid.
I'm playing it right now 😃 I got bored of forza 4 a long time ago. I like the long stretch roads, but yeah you cant get the car packs or anything like that but man I love it way better than forza 4. Cool video man, keep doing what your doing 🙂👍
This was the first horizon game I played, and it was also my favorite, FH4 and 5 don’t even come close to the feel of this game… Also just to clarify blizzard mountain was the first expansion in this game, Hotwheels didn’t come out til around 5 months after it..
Horizon 3 actually works pretty well on PC now, 4K120fps with 8xMSAA is pretty easily managed by any mid-range PC. Agreed, Horizon 3 is still the best in the series, both the location and the music were never matched by future games.
Loved this game so much. I won so many of the unicorn cars on wheelspins. And then A9X Torana dropped. Heaven. And the soundtrack. And finally just cruising and drifting around the Goldcoast with a group of friends. Played this right up to the day FH4 was released.
FH3 was the first Horizon game I played after getting Forza Motorsport 6 with my Xbox One S. It’s the reason why I got FH4 and 5. If they remastered FH3 with the only change being all the new upgrades from fh4 and 5 I’d buy it without a second thought. My friend and I still play FH3 sometimes and it’s a blast even after all these years.
@@stevio2175 Now that I’m on PC I can confirm that 60 FPS on horizon 3 is awesome. I’m having to run VSync due to an issue with my monitor otherwise I could easily do 165 fps
After I use FH4 in the pandemic time - I bought also FH3 and FH2. FH3 because of a new map experience and I also like to see the spots I visit @ my vacation in 1999 there :D But I was some month to late to buy the expansions. I only got an car pass at this time. I own xbox and pc, so I have the possibility to use FH2. FH2 I was interested in to see the Europa map because I am from Germany :)
I still got my horizon 3 and haven't played it for years was thinking about doing a trade at GameStop but hold up some thing told me to check up on TH-cam of this game and the fact is i almost made the biggest mistake of my Life i did not know they did listed it and i was like o hell naw im not selling my forza horizon 3 in that case wow thank God i look it up in 2024 cant race on hot wheels but its cool i still to this day enjoy it thats why i reinstalled it once again when i heard the bad news of cant getting it ever again its never for ever leaving my life now because of that thanks TH-cam channels for looking out yall the best
i remember getting the xbox one s forza horizon 3 hot wheels bundle back then on christmas and the blizzard mountain dlc a year later. possibly one of the best games i can remember.
I bought Horizon 2 at the beginning of 2016, not knowing a whole lot about the Horizon series. But 3 was the first one I invested an insane amount of time in to 100% completion 7-8 months after release. Still the best Horizon
My experience with driving games before learning about the Forza Horizon saga was only limited to Gran Turismo 4 and Need for Speed: Most Wanted from 2005. In 2017 I was able to acquire an XBOX One Elite and thanks to LaMey's channel I saw his video of " FAIL Compilation" made me curious about this game and I had never experienced anything like it playing a car game, the more or less demanding experience of Gran Turismo and the freedom of Need for Speed in the same game, it was incredible how much I enjoyed it Along with its great soundtrack, especially Ladyhawke and Chvrches, especially the first one with its song "The River", it fit so well in Australia... Also its champions, some very fun like Ferrari vs Lamborghini. etc... that I miss from Forza Horizon 4 onwards, going from 63 championships or the 168 of Forza Horizon 2 (I did them all since once I finished 3 I went to 2 and it was incredible again by the way) feels a step backwards in my opinion since the playlist has very few and on top of that TEMPORARY is a tremendous mistake, it can take 10 years for the 63 championships of 3 to continue, there are no 4 and 5...
I started with FH1 back on the xbox 360. I've played all of them but FH1 will always be my favourite because of the story. FH3 is close second with it being the first one where the open world feeling was brought out. You didn't just have to stick to the road or dirt tracks but you could also go into the forrest and explore the map in more detail.
I’m so glad I put fh3 on my external hard drive when I changed Xbox it’s still incredible on a series s as it was when I first started gaming on a Xbox one
This was the first game I ever played on any xbox. Yes, never had the 360. I miss this game so much. Personally I think it’s really annoying that if you have played FH on the same account you’re using you basically get handed a bunch of s2 cars and the cover car of the game. Where’s the reward there. This was one of the only Forza games where I actually cared about the storyline.
The first one I played with the best you know you know, back in 2017 I got the Xbox One S, it came with was a copy FH3 and the hot wheel expansion I loved it
Is this game running on X box series X these days from CD? I bought my first x box yesterday, had Playstation all the time and wondering about playing older xbox exclusives.
My first fh game was 4, although i bought it when 5 was already released (yes im a newgen i know) and i bought 3 game key 2 days ago, one think i love about 3 after just 3 hours of playtime is that i only have 3 cars, in fh5 i had around a 100 cars after 5h of playtime, the slower progression is great, also the map is so much better than map in 5 and better than the map in 4, although one think i dont like about the map is that the highway feels so boring and repetitive compared to 4 and 2 (i dont have 2 but saw footages), im also very lucky to have both of the expansions, and i deeply reccomend to get the game while you can, as its a rare gemstone of the game industry that wont be available for much longer
Started with 360 version of FH2. Tried all remaining titles as well later. And I gotta say that FH1-3 had so much better vibe in comparison to 4 and 5. It was so much more chill back then. 1 to 3 had the true music festival celebrating the automotive community vibe while 4 and 5 feels to me like a multimillionaire world tour with music festivals.
This was the only forza game I actually gave a damn about and grinded the absolute hell out of. Got most of the unicorn cars, forzathon cars, dlc, mission completion and maxing our my rank to a plat star. I still play this from time to time with some mods of course to spice up this already perfect forza experience.
FH3 is my favourite game ever. Got it Christmas 2016 and i didn't play anything else for over 6 months 😅. My only regret is that i didn't get all the add ons like you get in the ultimate edition, I want them so badly but I know it's impossible
I used to have FH3 on Disk but my Brother tryed to put it in the X-Box when he had sticky hands and now the Disk wont work and I cant find another Disk at any shops. It made me really sad because I live in Australia and FH3 was one of the Most Popular Games that were Based in Australia. What made it even worse is that I had only had the game for 2 Months and I had got it for my birthday. I had only got to level 10 so I never got the full experience.
FH3 is my favourite Horizon. I've completed less races, am a lower level and have less money in this game compared to 4 and 5, yet my play time is way higher. Cruising and driving around is so much more fun in FH3 and the map just feels that much more alive and exciting. Its also crazy to me that there are aspects and features in FH3, which are better or completely missing in 4 and 5.
Back in 2017 I got my first Xbox, the original Xbox One my sister bought me. FH3 Was my very first game I ever played. I loved it and still love it alot. Sadly the disc got scratched and I can't recover it. But the memories are unforgettable.
FH3 was my first Horizon game and my god was it a great game to start off with. I just feel like this game had something special that FH4 and FH5 just could capture
This is why we need physical copies. Because I bought the game a couple weeks ago with the steel book, for like 30$. Did not know it was even delisted. Just another w for physical copies
Man i miss this game, it was a huge part of my childhood. I have countless hours on it and i teally wanna get back into it. I wonder if i can buy a old key off a webstie for it...
this was my last favorite Horizon, forcing the entire lobby to do the traffic glitch just so we could do street drifting has got to be the highlight for me in this game XD
Best FH game I’ve played. I’ve got a series S and regret it immensely. Drifting was great and it just felt amazing. They need to take a step back and make it more simple like FH3. Always wanted to know how people got the sesto elemento but never found out.
First for me was FH5, then FH4. A week ago I managed to get a new copy of FH3. Its my favourite now :) live the mep, the roads, lots of more cars on the road, the ciry etc. just a fun and great game :) hope they dont shut this one down.

FH3 was, in fact, my first Forza game. Got an Xbox One S bundled with FH3 and the Hot Wheels expansion for Christmas back in 2017.
Same for me!
Same
Same here. But I had the original Xbox before then and I played Motorsport 1

There’s just something about the “older” forza’s that is so much better than the new ones.
The map is a big one. Used to be a lot more packed with detail, lots of small hidden areas. All this faded out in 5 in my opinion.
I remember the hype for this game, it was insane.
It got me back into the franchise after years of COD!
For one thing back in 2016 they were allowed to put real music in the games, and FH4 still had CHVRCHES.
I still listen to a playlist of music found in FH3 and FH4 every day.
FH5 radio is so boring I never even turn it on.
More than 1 festival spot
Yeah, true but FH3 IS SUUUUUCH A GRIIIIND, for money and cars...it's just not satisfying to me, besides that, love the game.

well said.
Is there a way to get this now?

Thanks Diddy!
First one for me was FH4, but I recently picked up FH3, played for an hour and was impressed by the map so far. Looking forward to playing it more.
Hope to see you on the FH3 stream this week!
how did you play FH3 if its delisted???
@@crazycoil6024 I bought a physical copy at the local comic shop and played offline. There's nobody driving around but drivatars and me tho😵

6:29 Yes. My first Horizon was the OG Horizon back in the day on the Xbox 360.
awesome to hear!

I agree!
We need to convince the devs to give you a way to get the expansions.!!!! I would pay so much money to get all of the cars and expansions that I now can’t get to work
Facts! And do it for Horizon 2 as well maybe?
FH3 was my first Horizon, and I love to play it until now, even more than FH5. The map is just beautiful, the music, the vibe. The Hot Wheels is imo so much better in FH3. It's just hard getting used to go back to a garage to change the car, but it's just a small thing. I have to check out the Blizzard Mountain, I just barely even touched it back then. The one issue I have is PC optimisation, I remember it was a pain running it on a lower end system back then, while FH4 was much easier to run.
Forza used to only be intended for Xbox console, it's nice there is even an option for PC players now
I just got back into this game, and played it for a week and the servers are shutdown AGAIN.
Man this reminds me of a long time ago... I remember preordering this game before it came out in 2016, got the Ultimate Edition in store with the steel book, got the shirt that Horizon 3 that came with it later on tho... I remember being excited as hell when the day it came out finally happened. Four days before everyone else, a whole weekend with nothing planned or anything to do, I had it all to myself. Even got to use my parent's 4K TV for it, despite having the OG Xbox One at the time. Starting up the game, I didn't sleep until four in the morning the next day hahahah... it's weird to me now that it was all that long ago. I was 14 at that point when Hot Wheels came out and man, that hits different now. I remember helping a guy who was a TH-camr with some Forzathon themed videos where he did the challenges, he must've had a few thousand subscribers at that point, and he was a super chill dude. Really was. I actually followed him and was in every livestream because I became a fan. Got to play some online lobbies with him and man, that was awesome. I also loved being a Kiwi (born in New Zealand), who had been raised his whole life in Australia, because I could tell people in America, Canada, Europe, even Russia at one point, that the map was incredibly accurate. Like it had every theme of Australia as areas, and that really made it special. Also went through a few gamertags during then.... thunderbailz, T4ND3MTHUND3R, DeadRexGaming, SIL3NTxK1LL, x98OCT4N3V8x and then more recently, AYEEExUNCLE. Times change quickly man.
8 years already?
Damn I remember getting my Xbox ones s in Xmas 2016 with this game and farming simulator 17
crazy right
@@stevio2175 yeah
6:25 FH3 was the goat, I still remember when the Blizzard Mountain expansion dropped. My first Horizon game was the first Horizon in summer of 2013! Been hooked on racing games since. Stuff like the original Motorsport, Gran Turismo, and Need For Speed back in the day just never did it for me. Horizon really got me into that genre of games.
Horizon has the best feel for sure
FH3 was my very first xbox game after i got xbox one s included hot wheels expansion bundle on my birthday on Nov 29th at age 18 and gift came in Dec 2nd 2017,
this game is gives me the best experience with very first achievements, almost 7 years and never gets bored and enjoying myself everytime i revisiting my beloved game,
FH3 is my far most favorite game in my life, it gives me a good old days :')
Super fun times!
I played all the Horizons, The 1st won is my favorite, cause it started it all.
Colorado was amazing too.. sad it shut down
FH3 was my first forza game but i think i had it like a few months before FH4 came out and oh man ive played fh5 for hours and hours but i just got fh3 again on the xbox series X and played it for like maybe 30mins because i didnt have time.. those 30 minutes were more fun than my 'hours and hours' of playing FH5
So, if you own the DLC, it'll work, but you can't buy any...what about the car packs? If you own certain cars, do you have access to them, or no?
Also, if you find a Deluxe or Gold, with a code...would the code work? (Would you receive the DLC? OR would it be locked...?)
Whatever you previously own you will have access to 🙂
I remember playing FH3 on a school field trip and was just blown away by how amazing the graphics and map for a next gen game at the time, I regret rejecting the Xbox one my parents got me for my birthday in 2017
I felt like you man I regected a Xbox One by a damn switch why I do that?
@@sebas87gamingncomedy06 Ironically that’s exactly what happened to me, I liked the switch more than the Xbox
Hey Stevio2175 and everyone, I got Forza Horizon 3 it was my first real car game I played on my Xbox One Console Standard Version 500GB I love the game and I miss the Game. I like and listen to the soundtrack a lot when I play when Racing with races and I like the cars too and game play. I got my Xbox One Standard Version 2017 for Christmas. I play my other games in 2018-2019. August or September or December Fall or winter 2019 before the game ended a year later I got it at GameStop and it was not a newer version, it was a used version. I subscribed and turned on Notifications and been watching Stevio2175 since 2018-2019.
hey bud, thank you!
This is the game that reawakened my once dormant love for Hot Wheels! When the Hot Wheels DLC came out in May of 2017, a great deal of my Hot Wheels cars were accurately recreated in FH3. Examples include the following:
1. Johnny Lightning 1970 AMC Rebel Machine.
2. Hot Wheels '69 Corvette (Recreated using in-game 1970 Corvette).
3. Hot Wheels '63 Corvette (Recreated using in-game 1967 Corvette).
4. Hot Wheels '66 Chevy Nova.
5. Hot Wheels Chevy Stocker (Recreated using in-game 1988 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS).
6. Matchbox Mazda RX-7.
7. 1970 Plymouth Superbird (Recreated using in-game 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona.
8. Hot Wheels Twin Mill.
9. Matchbox 1930s Model A Ford (Recreated using in-game 1932 Ford Deluxe).
10. Hot Wheels '71 AMC Javelin AMX.
OMG, 8 Years!!! Love the nostalgia!!
very cool!
I’m downloading it right now off of my old disc. This game holds so many memories for me. Finally earning that centenario was so special to me.
I still remember the day when my dad bought Forza Horizon 1s Collectors EDITION and i still have it as a one of the best collectable items.
that's awesome.. I still have a sealed copy
FH2 is my first but I got FH3 that Christmas, and I also have every FH game too. My favorite is FH3 as well.
Glad to hear it!
I played FH3 on launch, put it down, came back to it a few years later, put it down, and I'm coming back again right now. This time, I'm going to finish what I started and get the last few remaining achievements (which are all the grindy ones lol)
I love it when people make videos of games that we played years ago...
I love playing the classics
I still play it
I wish I had the DLCs for FH3, never got em unfortunately. This is by far my favorite FH game.
Blizzard Mountain probably my all time favorite expansion
Get a cdkey online
@@1withbrandoncan you give any links?
It was and is still my favourite because of the music, the levelling progression, the online options and the setting. The physics in the newer FH's is noticably improved but its not enough to take the crown from FH3 imo.
I remember not going to school the day it came out and meeting a guy I used to go on and play with for a while after that day felt just like yesterday can’t believe it’s been a long 8 years
FH3 was my first and will always be my favorite horizon the memories and nostalgia I have on the game are unmatched too bad i lost my disc
I only played FH3 with online players one time, I was a single player guy for the rest of the time, and let me tell you that I enjoyed it more than FH4 and FH5 online. Interacting with drivatars was easily one of my favorite things to do. Recruiting random people into your festival and trying to get the best players was just fun. I still remember the gamertag of the first guy I added, and he always stayed because he had the best stats.
I also remember the car meet by the airport. I spent HOURS just revving cars and looking around.
I remember getting my first Horizon edition gtr, and it took me the full 2 years I played. I also spent all my time saving up for the Centanario and the Veyron, because when I got money I’d just spend it immediately. I haven’t had to save up for a car for Forza in forever. My FH5 account has 90 mil and I have all the cars, it’s just boring.
FH3, even without online for me, was and is the best Forza game ever.
Just searched up videos like this as I started playing FH3 again this morning. The fps is a drag but it's still such a good game. Crazy I didn't get as far in as I thought but it basically means I have a whole new game to play!
The thumbnail said 8 years ago and my brain went ‘oh forza horizon 3 is from 2012?’ bro the heck is wrong with me😭😭😭
I know right. I can’t believe 8 years ago is 2016
@@suprxmefire9497 Time flies. I miss years 2016 - 2019. Those were the brightest years for me. 😢
I started playing Forza horizon when it first came out, it was the game that got me back into car games. The sound track was spectacular.
Best open world racer!
I played fh3 since it 1st came out back in 2016. My first choice of car I chose was the 2014 BMW M4. 😊Awesome video bro.
thanks man.. good times
Yeah they were. The Location of Australia for Forza horizon 3 is spectacular.
FH3 was my favorite Horizon game as well as the one I started with. I prefer being a boss over being a superstar.
same here!
@@stevio2175 lol ur the only like on my comment
FH3 was my first and still is my ride or die
too good to quit!
@@stevio2175 it really is tho
Blizzard Mountain was so much fun. It's one of those times in life where I wished I had friends that cared about arcade style racers so I could show them all of the cool stuff that was in that expansion.
This was my first ever game, when I was in the game dvd shop with my dad this was the game I chose (it was in 2016) and I still play it today
hey i cant access Auctions or Online free roam. Are servers down now? (Im on pc)
Or do i need gamepass?
Never needed gamepass before
Seeing this brings back so many memories. Oh my word. 😔 I want to grind blizzard mountain again. I’d do anything to be able to go back, and grind blizzard mountain again, get the RS RX, and play infected, and other blizzard mountain races till 3 in the morning with random people like I did when I was a kid.
ive played every forza game and the old ones dont compare to the newer ones the nostalgia beats new games anyday for me
This game still holds up for being 8 years old, easily
@@stevio2175 i know its perfection compared to fh5 id order them the older they are the better
Missed all DLC for this one sad sad bring back the market lol
we wish
I'm playing it right now 😃 I got bored of forza 4 a long time ago. I like the long stretch roads, but yeah you cant get the car packs or anything like that but man I love it way better than forza 4. Cool video man, keep doing what your doing 🙂👍
I joined your FH3 Club last year!
This was the first horizon game I played, and it was also my favorite, FH4 and 5 don’t even come close to the feel of this game…
Also just to clarify blizzard mountain was the first expansion in this game, Hotwheels didn’t come out til around 5 months after it..
had to save the best for last 😉
@@stevio2175 I figured as much. Even though in my opinion both of the expansions are the same level of awesomeness….
Horizon 3 actually works pretty well on PC now, 4K120fps with 8xMSAA is pretty easily managed by any mid-range PC.
Agreed, Horizon 3 is still the best in the series, both the location and the music were never matched by future games.
Such a great atmosphere... and those online connections
Loved this game so much. I won so many of the unicorn cars on wheelspins. And then A9X Torana dropped. Heaven. And the soundtrack. And finally just cruising and drifting around the Goldcoast with a group of friends. Played this right up to the day FH4 was released.
Great video, the best horizon game man
I agree!
FH3 was the first Horizon game I played after getting Forza Motorsport 6 with my Xbox One S. It’s the reason why I got FH4 and 5. If they remastered FH3 with the only change being all the new upgrades from fh4 and 5 I’d buy it without a second thought. My friend and I still play FH3 sometimes and it’s a blast even after all these years.
60FPS would be something
@@stevio2175 Now that I’m on PC I can confirm that 60 FPS on horizon 3 is awesome. I’m having to run VSync due to an issue with my monitor otherwise I could easily do 165 fps
My first FH game so I might be biased it was the best imo (after playing all of them). Best map, online, car sounds, dlcs, etc
it's amazing bro
After I use FH4 in the pandemic time - I bought also FH3 and FH2. FH3 because of a new map experience and I also like to see the spots I visit @ my vacation in 1999 there :D But I was some month to late to buy the expansions. I only got an car pass at this time. I own xbox and pc, so I have the possibility to use FH2. FH2 I was interested in to see the Europa map because I am from Germany :)
All are great games!
I still got my horizon 3 and haven't played it for years was thinking about doing a trade at GameStop but hold up some thing told me to check up on TH-cam of this game and the fact is i almost made the biggest mistake of my Life i did not know they did listed it and i was like o hell naw im not selling my forza horizon 3 in that case wow thank God i look it up in 2024 cant race on hot wheels but its cool i still to this day enjoy it thats why i reinstalled it once again when i heard the bad news of cant getting it ever again its never for ever leaving my life now because of that thanks TH-cam channels for looking out yall the best
I got you bro, go play that ish. Never sell
@@stevio2175i can't bro i gotta keep it no regrets of keeping it
i remember getting the xbox one s forza horizon 3 hot wheels bundle back then on christmas and the blizzard mountain dlc a year later. possibly one of the best games i can remember.
I bought Horizon 2 at the beginning of 2016, not knowing a whole lot about the Horizon series. But 3 was the first one I invested an insane amount of time in to 100% completion 7-8 months after release. Still the best Horizon
My experience with driving games before learning about the Forza Horizon saga was only limited to Gran Turismo 4 and Need for Speed: Most Wanted from 2005. In 2017 I was able to acquire an XBOX One Elite and thanks to LaMey's channel I saw his video of " FAIL Compilation" made me curious about this game and I had never experienced anything like it playing a car game, the more or less demanding experience of Gran Turismo and the freedom of Need for Speed in the same game, it was incredible how much I enjoyed it Along with its great soundtrack, especially Ladyhawke and Chvrches, especially the first one with its song "The River", it fit so well in Australia...
Also its champions, some very fun like Ferrari vs Lamborghini. etc... that I miss from Forza Horizon 4 onwards, going from 63 championships or the 168 of Forza Horizon 2 (I did them all since once I finished 3 I went to 2 and it was incredible again by the way) feels a step backwards in my opinion since the playlist has very few and on top of that TEMPORARY is a tremendous mistake, it can take 10 years for the 63 championships of 3 to continue, there are no 4 and 5...
Most Wanted was great too.. I though championships was a bit repetitive in FH2
FH2 was my first surprisingly on the XBOX 360, along with motorsport 2 I believe, I still play 4 and 5 of the Horizon series almost every day lol
my first FH game is FH4
Been trying to make my way thru FH3 since i got earlier in the month from GameStop as a physical copy
Played it briefly in the series X. Graphics and map are quitte good, but could not get used to 30fps.
I started with FH1 back on the xbox 360. I've played all of them but FH1 will always be my favourite because of the story. FH3 is close second with it being the first one where the open world feeling was brought out. You didn't just have to stick to the road or dirt tracks but you could also go into the forrest and explore the map in more detail.
the car sounds, the gold coast city, the forest, the outback, a drag/airstrip, best forza game
I’m so glad I put fh3 on my external hard drive when I changed Xbox it’s still incredible on a series s as it was when I first started gaming on a Xbox one
This was the first game I ever played on any xbox. Yes, never had the 360. I miss this game so much. Personally I think it’s really annoying that if you have played FH on the same account you’re using you basically get handed a bunch of s2 cars and the cover car of the game. Where’s the reward there. This was one of the only Forza games where I actually cared about the storyline.
they need to bring back the sparks and stuff from fh3 feel and look so mucn better than they do in fh5 (i think)
The first one I played with the best you know you know, back in 2017 I got the Xbox One S, it came with was a copy FH3 and the hot wheel expansion I loved it
Is this game running on X box series X these days from CD? I bought my first x box yesterday, had Playstation all the time and wondering about playing older xbox exclusives.
Yes, I play on disc on XSX
@stevio2175 Thank You for answering
My first fh game was 4, although i bought it when 5 was already released (yes im a newgen i know) and i bought 3 game key 2 days ago, one think i love about 3 after just 3 hours of playtime is that i only have 3 cars, in fh5 i had around a 100 cars after 5h of playtime, the slower progression is great, also the map is so much better than map in 5 and better than the map in 4, although one think i dont like about the map is that the highway feels so boring and repetitive compared to 4 and 2 (i dont have 2 but saw footages), im also very lucky to have both of the expansions, and i deeply reccomend to get the game while you can, as its a rare gemstone of the game industry that wont be available for much longer
Started with 360 version of FH2. Tried all remaining titles as well later.
And I gotta say that FH1-3 had so much better vibe in comparison to 4 and 5. It was so much more chill back then. 1 to 3 had the true music festival celebrating the automotive community vibe while 4 and 5 feels to me like a multimillionaire world tour with music festivals.
I hear you on that!
I never played Forza Horizon 3 and i really like it from the videos. Is it worth it to buy an used xbox to only play this game?
I’d say yes. Plus you can try Horizon 1 and 2 as well!
@@stevio2175 broo is it possible to buy FH3 , I have 4 but I wanna try FH3 I have a lot of memories with it , please is it possible? if so how?
@@aizenstreams1I think gamepass has it, or you buy a physical copy disc of the game
@@stevio2175 Thank you for your reply. I think i will buy it during summer holiday because i will have a lot of free time.
This was the only forza game I actually gave a damn about and grinded the absolute hell out of. Got most of the unicorn cars, forzathon cars, dlc, mission completion and maxing our my rank to a plat star. I still play this from time to time with some mods of course to spice up this already perfect forza experience.
FH3 is my favourite game ever. Got it Christmas 2016 and i didn't play anything else for over 6 months 😅. My only regret is that i didn't get all the add ons like you get in the ultimate edition, I want them so badly but I know it's impossible
FH3 was my first Forza game and it's still my favourite game ever, it just has an amazing vibe plus the amazing skies and scenarios
I used to have FH3 on Disk but my Brother tryed to put it in the X-Box when he had sticky hands and now the Disk wont work and I cant find another Disk at any shops. It made me really sad because I live in Australia and FH3 was one of the Most Popular Games that were Based in Australia. What made it even worse is that I had only had the game for 2 Months and I had got it for my birthday. I had only got to level 10 so I never got the full experience.
Check online - you'll find one!
When I saw the title, 8 years I couldn’t believe it
FH3 is my favourite Horizon. I've completed less races, am a lower level and have less money in this game compared to 4 and 5, yet my play time is way higher. Cruising and driving around is so much more fun in FH3 and the map just feels that much more alive and exciting. Its also crazy to me that there are aspects and features in FH3, which are better or completely missing in 4 and 5.
This was my first Forza Horizon game ever it was cool and fun fact I used to play on an IPad before I got a PC
haha hey whatever works!
Back in 2017 I got my first Xbox, the original Xbox One my sister bought me. FH3 Was my very first game I ever played. I loved it and still love it alot. Sadly the disc got scratched and I can't recover it. But the memories are unforgettable.
You should have just bought the digital version. Sorry to hear that the disc got scratched
Good news is they’re like $15 used at The Exchange. 🙃
FH3 was my first Horizon game and my god was it a great game to start off with. I just feel like this game had something special that FH4 and FH5 just could capture
Forza Horizon 3 was my first game and Steve it IS THE BEST GAME EVER. BEST music BEST cars BEST map 🫶🫶🫶 10/10
This is why we need physical copies. Because I bought the game a couple weeks ago with the steel book, for like 30$. Did not know it was even delisted.
Just another w for physical copies
Man i miss this game, it was a huge part of my childhood. I have countless hours on it and i teally wanna get back into it. I wonder if i can buy a old key off a webstie for it...
or get an Xbox... play all the Horizons!
I had every Forza game, but Forza two but man, the memories on 3
this was my last favorite Horizon, forcing the entire lobby to do the traffic glitch just so we could do street drifting has got to be the highlight for me in this game XD
oh boy haha
STEVIO2175, This is amazing! I can't stop smiling!
Best FH game I’ve played. I’ve got a series S and regret it immensely. Drifting was great and it just felt amazing. They need to take a step back and make it more simple like FH3. Always wanted to know how people got the sesto elemento but never found out.
I recently got FH2 (my first forza game). Now I am currently searching for FH3.
Hope you find it!
First for me was FH5, then FH4. A week ago I managed to get a new copy of FH3. Its my favourite now :) live the mep, the roads, lots of more cars on the road, the ciry etc. just a fun and great game :) hope they dont shut this one down.
