Quote:
Forza Horizon is an upcoming, open world racing video game for Microsoft's Xbox 360 video game console. Developed principally by British games developer Playground Games in association with Turn 10 Studios, the game will be a part of Turn 10's long-running Forza Motorsport franchise, but is considered more of a spin-off instead of the next true member of the series. The game is expected to be released on 23 October 2012.


Quote:
Forza Horizon is an open-world game based around a fictitious festival called the Horizon Festival, set in Colorado, USA. The game incorporates many different gameplay aspects from previous Forza Motorsport titles, like the large variety of cars, realistic physics and high definition graphics. The aim is to progress through the game by means of obtaining "Wristbands" by driving fast, destroying property, winning races and other driving antics. Players can encounter AI drivers in the open world, and can challenge them to instant races. Horizon is set to feature the physics of Forza 4, which have been optimised to work on the 65 variants of terrain said to be present in the game. According to Dan Greenawalt, director of Turn 10's Forza Motorsport series, the game's soundtrack contains a lot of dubstep tracks, with a demonstration showing a variation of Avicii's "Levels" remixed by American music producer Skrillex.

Exactly, butting the Forza name on this is a joke Mad

NFS name on a burnout game didn't really matter that much because they are both more or less pure arcade games.

You get to do three races. Evo X , Mustang , Viper. I played it on simulation handling, no ABS , no TCS. Its still major arcade, pretty easy. Its smooth like you expect from Forza. The presentation style is a total code masters rip off ie: DIRT. Its good I suppose for one of those NFS, test drive type games. My hair wasn't blown back, your mileage may vary

i wouldn't be worried about it, forza demos always tend to be incredibly limited compared to what final game offers.

this game already sounds like it shits all over recent NFS games. Very Happy

Just played it , and I must admit .. I like it..Visually stunning Surprised , even tho they changed the approach from usual stuff they've done it's still miles better than similiar racers on the market. It's just a spin off and they are probably taking a break from usual stuff..gonna play it for sure..
