I hope it has some TDU elements, like character customization and the ability to put top/windows down.

While I think it's a stunning looking car, I never liked driving it. It drove like a big ass SUV around corners.

I just hope its not as lifeless as the Forza series. Hopefully they've done some homework on NFS:HP and Test Drive. Ambient sounds, "living" cities/towns, etc.

I wish they would have left the NY track

It would have been perfect for tag.

I don't even own FM3 anymore lol

Also some pics from the official Forza page:

"[FORZA HORIZON CAR REVEAL] 2010 Ford Focus RS500 -- In its matte black “foil” paint the Focus RS500 stands out in a crowd and it should because only 500 were produced. Individually numbered and nearly impossible to acquire, the RS500 will get you the attention you seek. With looks like no other production vehicle, the RS500 will follow the rest of the Fords to don the rare "RS" moniker as a legend in its class."

I'm hoping this means we can flat black paint cars, but it seems like it's just a finish it comes in.


"1985 Ford RS200 Evolution — Unlocking the power of this Group B homologation model requires attention to throttle modulation and choosing the right line. Beyond that the RS200 Evolution will do the rest with its high tech all-wheel drive system and cagey, tenacious grip. Its marked race history and uncommon looks make a bold statement."


"2012 Ultima GTR -- Nothing short of a street legal track car, the Ultima GTR is a sock-knocking kick in the rear to drive. Don’t kid yourself when you suit up in this super kit car, it has potential that should only be unlocked by those willing to commit to its potential. You don’t just hop in a car like this and expect results, you temper your response and slowly but surely unveil its capabilities as your skills unfold behind the wheel."


"[FORZA HORIZON CAR REVEAL] 2000 Nissan Silvia spec-R -- Driving this JDM masterpiece can be a transformative experience – in the real world or in Forza Horizon. With enough power to conquer any road in Horizon’s Colorado and the kind of sleek lines normally reserved for chorus line girls, the Silvia turns heads wherever it goes."

I know what I'll be drifting around a lot

Not who I thought would be doing this review but it's good to see someone who isn't a game critic.



"Back at the Horizon Festival, users can modify car their cars exactly as they always have, with an assortment of aftermarket parts, and the infamous Forza paint booth."

At 2:10, Dan says you can't tune specifics like gear ratios and such and also that the convertibles will permanently have the tops down.

Tyler gon be maaaaaaaaaddddd about the gearing

Gay. Although the multiplayer sounds great. Hopefully it functions better than FM4.

Another good article to read though posted at the bottom.

Cliffs:
-Dedicated off-road tracks but no off-road tires available
-No engine/drivetrain swaps seen in demo
-No importing cars from FM3 or FM4
-3 radio stations featuring rock, indie pop, and electronica

I think the open-world feel will be great but there are multiple elements we want that they won't put in the game
