So payday has arrived here and I was allowed to pre-order Forza Horizons, will anyone else be joining us on XBL to play the next installment of the Forza franchise?
I pre ordered and cancelled and am currently fighting my temptations lol..
Your thoughts?
My thoughts on Forza Horizons so far are that it's Burnout with the Forza engine. You are free roaming and can do races when you feel like it, collecting stuff as you go by hitting signs like you did in Burnout. The Forza physics are there but I've found myself driving more like an arcade racer in the game and it doesn't really penalise you for that.
It is as I suspected it would be, aimed at the pick up and go driver rather than the usual Forza crowd. It's fun at the moment but hasn't dragged me in like previous Forza titles since FM2 did it nearly 5 years ago. It's more a dip in every now and then game.
Some of the guys on MVG are concerned the SP is dull???
I've only really played single player so far, and it is OK but I can't see it holding my attention to finish all the races and collections. I've heard complaints about the multiplayer allowing the idiots to bounce off of walls and fences to overtake in bends, but that was always going to happen in a game aimed at the target audience Horizons is aimed at, and the people complaining are Forza die hards so they were always going to dislike that in MP.
Nice to quickly import some of my FM4 designs to paint a car or 2 though.
Its the fact the NFS MW is around the corner as well.. Um i am so undecided lol..
Get need for speed most wanted, it's fookin epic!!, have let my hands on it, thanx to my mate in gamestop 
Im not a huge fan of driving games, boy have they done a wicked job, no need to race to win cars, simply find them and car jack them and off you go, in the first 40mins of play I acquired 9 cars all top class ones..
Forza is now a cross between test drive and n4speed the run..I'd wait for the bargain bin for that.
Yeah I played NFS MW at Eurogamer. Sure is epic. Back to the original best. At last.
I thought Forza looked really well at least until I seen the New Need for Speed commercial. My wife loves Corvettes so we looked at each other and thought COOL!!!!
