Forza and Horizon games

Post by Pocket Pardew »

So I've been a fan of the Forza series for years now and see it as the go to racing game on the Xbox. However with Horizon 5 I think they have really started to set a benchmark in racing games now.
I absolutely love this new game and the fact it was 'free' on Game Pass is incredible. Everything about the game is smooth and natural. I'm playing on an Xbox Series X and the graphics are brilliant with no draw distances and seamless game play.

Been hammering the race series and pretty much completed what's on offer so far. Just waiting for the season change and new batch of unlocked races, stories and challenges.

Anyone else playing on Xbox?. My gamertag is BlinkieB if anyone wants to add and link up.

I'm on Xbox.

Can't remember my gamertag though.

Would be fun to arrange some KUMB racing or something over the festive period.

Have got an Xbox Series S for my son and want to get him Forza Horizon 5. Things are bit different from my day (last console was an Xbox 360) and my head hurts from all the different options!

What's the easiest (and by that I probably mean the cheapest) way to get him this Forza game? TIA

2 ways. You either buy it as a download from the Microsoft shop (accessed from within the console menu) or you subscribe to GamePass for £11 a month as it is one of the 100's of games that is available

Yeah get yourself on Game pass and you will Nevee have to pay £50 for game again... Superb value but maybe also look at investing in a large external memory drive. I have a 2tb drive connected and its 3/4 full

I'd probably say this new version is my favourite. I did really enjoy Forza 7, especially in a F1 car.
