Forza Motorsport 5 - Review
Racing games often begin with a montage of quick-cut scenes and thumping techno music designed to get you in the mood for speed. Look at those cars, check out that horsepower, and listen to that beat! From the start, Forza Motorsport 5 tries to separate itself from the rest of the pack.
Forza strikes the right balance between simulation and arcade racer; Both multiplayer and single-player options are plentiful; An absolutely gorgeous Forzavista mode is the ultimate launch showcase for Xbox One
Fewer cars than in previous Forza games is a disappointment; Top Gear could have been used to greater effect; though it's nice to hear Captain Slow make the odd introduction; Microtransactions may change the way multiplayer races are balanced
