Microsoft is milking the Forza series, just like Halo. But Forza Horizon is going to be more like an arcade simulator. *cough NFS Hot pursuit knock off Cough*. I'll just wait for the Gran Turismo 6.

You guys fail to remember that this game is in no way Forza 5. Horizon is its own entity and will be its own entity but will carry the Forza name.

Gran Turismo at this point has the same vague release date as 4 so we will probably see it on PS5 at the earliest.

Does anybody remember the games made by Genki? The Tokyo Xtreme and Kaido Battle series. THOSE were awesome games. Back then, it was like Gran Turismo had a lovechild with Need for Speed and Initial D. Hopefully Horizon will turn out similarly.

Damn so much hate for a game that no one has played yet... from what Ive heard, there's a full day and night cycle, off road racing(with the implementation of 26 new surfaces), a complete replica of a city in colorado with mountain roads(touge?), and it retains the handling system of Forza 4.

Inside sim racing had some good things to say about it.

Which begs the question, why did Kaz put the 86 and FR-S in GT5 and leave out the BRZ?

Ever wanted to take a car from Forza 4/GT5 and just drive it balls our on the highway, street, or your favorite canyon road? Well, no other game in history will come as close to that as Forza Horizon.

No, it's not "just Need for Speed". It has full 100% Forza physics, customization (twin-turbo Gallardo highway/wangan racing anyone?), and on top of that, probably the biggest, most beautifully-rendered driving world ever conceived.

This isn't just an arcade TestDriveUnlimited clone. No, this is probably going to be the best free-roam racing game ever made for the console. Think about anything you'd like to do on any part of the world with any desirable car(or truck!) and BOOM: You can do it in Horizon!
It's like this guy works for Turn 10 or something :/

Horizon retains the handling, but not nearly as much of the customization and tuning that makes the Forza series great. Horizon will appeal to those who prefer to just hop in a car and drive (like free play on Forza 4) but for some of us that in-depth choice and customization for each car is what makes the game great. I'll hold out for Forza 5 while driving the FR-S in Forza 4 (pretending that it's a BRZ ).

Fark it I will get Horizon and Forza 5. I mean the Forza is the closest thing to real physics on a console. (No GT5 vs Forza arguments please) And its fun, and if you can free roam and do pick your own path racing then its even better for multiplayer.

An outside company is developing Horizon.

If you guys don't want to settle for the "need for speed" future Forza is developing then check out Project C.A.R.S.

Pure simulation, open development, wider support.

I disagree and so does 6 million other people.....that's why one game sold about 8 million and the other barely hit 2 million, even as a pack in game.

The release date for GT6 is 2045.......

I mean 2049.........

I mean 2052...............

Fuck it. It will be released in 2053, but it will be released as an unfinished beta game with "real life" car damage.

I've been a GT and FORZA fan since the introduction of both games.

I'm not going to take Horzon's seriously, but in all honesty, it's not meant to be.

Who wouldn't want that?!
People who prefer the traditional Forza experience? The reason I buy a Forza product is because it specifically ISN'T a NFS style game. MSoft could've easily called it something other than Forza Horizon.
