  • Summary: Forza Motorsport lets you own, customize, and race your favorite cars. You can collect models from more than 60 manufacturers and then race to earn money for upgrades and aftermarket parts. Test-drive your vehicle on various tracks, ranging from the challenging Nurburgring Nordschleife to the streets of Rio de Janeiro. You can even train your own "Drivatars" to use the same racing techniques you do, so they can race for you in competitions or train new drivers on your team. In addition to single-player challenges, the game includes multiplayer modes that are playable via Xbox Live. … Expand

    All you need to know is that if it was a poker hand, Forza would be a royal flush. If a football score, it would be a 7-0 win. As a game, it is the finest straight-up racing game to grace any home console system and as such, is an absolute must buy.

    I'm not condoning adultery with the following analogy but it's the best way I can think of getting my point across; Forza Motorsport is like a wife - it looks pretty, you know what you're getting, you're in it for the long haul but it can become a little irritating and boring at times.

    If there's an overall problem with Forza, it's that the game isn't polished into the slick experience that others have recently offered. [June 2005, p.130]

    The problem with Forza is, however, that this is a game that feels somewhat empty. Your victories aren't celebrated and are barely acknowledged. Tuning up a car is so easy that is barely feels rewarding to feel it going at top speed.

    No force feedback support for XBOX, so no good steering Wheel. I rest my case

    Imagine buying a really powerful car, with a big powerful engine and 6 speed transmission. Youre really excited about it and want to get out on the open road asap to "open her up". To your horror you find that only 1st and 2nd gear are available. A small note in the glove box explains that all gears above 2nd have been locked. 3rd will be unlocked after you have driven 25000kms. 4th will be unlocked after you have driven 50000kms. 5th will be unlocked after you have driven 75000kms. And finally, 6th will be unlocked after you have driven 100000kms. Angriliy, you drive and drive and drive until finally the odometer clicks over to 100000. The cars worn out, youre worn out...and you dont feel like driving the car anymore. And to think of the irony, how much better you would have enjoyed the experience if they had all bee available from day 1. Welcome to Forza Motorsport!… Expand
