    There is a ridiculous amount of cars to collect in Forza 7, including a host of never before seen vehicles. Each of which can be hurled around the truly impressive variety of tracks brought to life by stunning weather and time of day lighting effects. Plus, even if you’ve seen some of these cars and tracks before they’ve never looked or felt this good. Racing is exciting in Forza 7 and accessible at any skill level. If you were to strip away the visuals and leave behind the core mechanics of racing hundreds of cars across numerous tracks, Forza 7 is still one of the most well rounded and solid racers ever created.

    Forza Motorsport 7 provides the best mainline experience yet on the Xbox One. Forza 4 may still be the greatest overall entry thanks to its overly-generous nature of giving out cars and the in-game auction house, but Forza 7 comes very close to topping it. The car selection is outstanding and the core gameplay is better now than ever before – with immersion also topping out here thanks to the massive increases in graphical quality and overall sound design.

    With over 30 tracks, hundreds of impressively rendered cars, and a robust and option-rich single player campaign (not to mention endless single, one-off races), Forza 7 has to represent the current apex of the racing sim. While it isn't a decisive leap forward from Forza 6, neither is it a step back. The cars just get better looking, the handling more precise, and the overall experience more comprehensive and immersive. I can't wait to try it on the Xbox One X.

    Forza Motorsport 7 doesn't bring many innovations in terms of circuits or ambient conditions, but Turn 10 Studios has built a great game which will make Xbox One (standard or X) owners proud. The garage is huge, the handling is just amazing and the graphics are near reality.

    Fall time on planet Xbox brings with it the promise of virtual horsepower; and 2017 doesn't disappoint. Microsoft Studios contingency Turn 10 is back with the seventh installment in the "primary" franchise flavor, upping the stakes with a ludicrous car count and a new collector focused experience.

    An incredibly polished and satisfying racer.

    It truly bothers me that I had to spend half this review talking about loot crates and in-game economics. I would’ve much rather spent this space talking about the fantastic driving experience, the way the game can be tailored to any desired skill level with the bevy of options, the incredible car customization (when applicable), the beautiful graphics, the astounding attention to detail in the car models, and the sheer, unrelenting car-porn that Forza 7 provides. On the other hand, anyone who’s paid attention to this series already knows this — not much has changed, and the stuff that has changed like the VIP support, currency manipulation and the homologated career mode will leave longtime fans perplexed why this route was taken. Forza 7 is a fantastic driving title that can’t stop tripping over itself, and its majestic driving experience is overshadowed by a lack of new ideas and suspicious economic decisions.

Microsoft changed the description after the Ultimate edition was released. The text was vague until release and later changed to say that there is no permanent Credit Boost but 25 boosts (single use). What a bad deal.

The change to the VIP reward system is being FIXED - back to the usual 2x credits per race as before -, so I'm not as furiou anymore.

    The good: handling is the same (great), more cars than before (in fact it's almost like a Forza 6 + all DLC included and then some), new improved graphics and animations (some people don't like the camera shake, but I enjoy it).

    The not-so-good: they made UI changes that don't make any f***** sense. It's a PITA to test drive cars as you're tuning, and the full wide open test track is gone.

    The bad: loot crates. I don't mind them, tho. They're reasonably priced - at least the cheap ones -, and usually pay for themselves in one race, two at the most. I don't like how some cars are locked behind loot crates or whatever.

    Overall, a good solid iteration. It's Forza on steroids.

    I have been a Forza fan since the second iteration of the game, and own all versions of the main franchise as well as the Horizon series.I have been a Forza fan since the second iteration of the game, and own all versions of the main franchise as well as the Horizon series. Safe to say I am a big fan.

    Forza 7 is great in a lot of ways but it does let itself down in some crucial areas, for me anyway. The main differentiation for the series over other racing games for me has been its accessibility. You can jump in, drive what you want and have a blast. That has changed with this version, cars or locked behind tiers and upgrades are linked to a certain genre of car rather than performance index. What does this mean? Well it means that you firstly need to grind a bit to unlock the cars that you want and spend quite a lot of money on vehicles you probably would not buy. Some of the cars are locked behind levels, and "loot crates" or the specialist car seller which is another frustration.

    With the new rules on upgrading cars it also means you can't race what you want in every race, you are locked into a certain type of car and level of upgrade - IE Street or Sport levels... again a big change for us veterans of the franchise.

    The above detracts for me from an otherwise excellent game. The car mechanics are as always top notch, the sounds are even better than last years - particularly the weather and crash noises. The car models and overall graphics are excellent, with lighting and the weather / time of day modelling being the main selling point.

    All in this is a great game however for series veterans it isn't what we are used to and therefore a little less great.

    If you're a competitive Multiplayer Forza player, avoid this like the plague.

    It is honestly hard to take away positives, when Leaderboards per PI Class, Rivals per PI class and track, Multiplayer lobbies with the freedom to build and drive any car you want, are all gone.

    Yep, been a staple of the Forza franchise since say, Forza Motorsport 2, and suddenly due to these Homologation rules they have introduced, the game is very bare bones for multiplayer fans.

    I cannot recommend it at all if that is your bread and butter, I know it was for me, 100's of hours in every title, within 2 hours of this game I knew I was in for a disappointing ride.

    Oh, also VIP was a scam, refunded, will not be picking it up again.
