Forza Horizon review - ColourShed

[@beansandburgers1264]

This game is 8 years old and still looks better than Fast and Furious Crossroads

[@porschefan117]

I remember back in 2015-2016 How Bad this game Was.

[@jacintofernandes2907]

@Elite Soulfly what part of "still looks better" didn't you get?

[@CobnutVTS]

@Elite Soulfly ever heard of slightly mad studios? ya know the one with project cars...thats who developed with fnf crossroads so your argument stands no ground

[@santhoshsridhar5887]

[@markmartin2819]

What really amazes me is how the songs played at the radio have gained such a massive popularity like no other game has ever achieved. So many of them sit on 100M downloads now and remember, most of these songs were new at the time the game came out. It really adds to the feeling of a festival not only about cars, but also about partying, and it shows that whoever was put to choose songs for the soundtrack had really good taste

Just an FYI: Horizon 3 is currently on sale until iirc September 27th this year. After that, it and it's DLC will no longer be available for sale. Microsoft announced this like a day ago. So, you might want to make sure you already have it and any DLC you want before you can't get it!

[@Juanguar]

smawllz oh shit thanks for letting us know

[@lm_dccxl4078]

oh no, its horizon 2 all over again

[@lordeilluminati]

Other tip: dont buy the Ultimate Edition hoping to get the Festival Expansions because it doesnt, the Ultimate edition just includes the car pass (paid cars) and vip (5 cars and double credits after events). Buying the standard edition plus the season pass is better.

[@adamphillip5305]

Gonna get the DLC set later, Blizzard Mountain and Hot Wheels for £8.77 for the pair.

[@ThatTonnatoTenrec]

Sad thing is i personally might miss it, i strugled to find time to finally get into a Forza game even when i had opportunities, while i heard of this announcment happening and i was eager to get it, Forza Horizon 4 is also on sale, which for me is going to be a better choice to finally get into the series. I might consider at end of september the standard edittion, yes the DLC will be lost but at least its better than waiting for 'okay now im justified to pirate it'.

[@Magestig]

I still love FH1 and it's my favourite Horizon! The atmosphere, the music, the races, etc. are amazing and I feel the sequels haven't really captured that same feeling this game has. Although it doesn't have over 700 cars like FH4 does, it makes the ones in FH1 more special and personal.

[@Skarfar90]

Some of the radio stations in FH4 has pretty good soundtracks. But nothing like the ones in the original Horizon

[@jhmarwood]

I found out a few months ago that playground games is based only a town away from me and I go past their office everyday on the way to the train station, I expected them to based in America so to find out they’re based in a small midlands town in England was quite strange haha

[@eliminator1492]

They are also making Fable now.

[@McDonaldsWiFiHashiriya]

FINALLY. I bought this game in 2013, and haven't been able to stop playing it since. The physics, cars, graphics (for it's time at least) and most of all: the feeling of the festival itself. Just Perfect.

[@pedrovetor1761]

@Austin Batton The only thing that keeps FH4 alive are SOME of the online lobbies and the weekly playlists, FH1 was a much better game imo, it had less cars, a smaller map but the whole experience just feels better... In FH4 it feels like the developers lost their passion...

7:17 THIS TIMES 1000! IMO the should have kept that system, where you had to complete an event using a certain type of car, like 1990 convertible A-class, and when you finished it, then you yourself can change the parameters and customize the event to your liking.

[@lordeilluminati]

I think in 3 makes sense because you are the "MC" of the festival. On 2 when you win the Festival it doesnt feel that it is yours. On 4 it was just carried from 3 without any thought put into it. Even though in theory I could win the entire FH3 with one car, I still used different cars and changed the events because it felt so interesting making varied events, contrary to FH2 which you only choose the car class and place to start the same 4 races.

[@speedm222]

Thank I think 3 and 4's seasonal championships have that in spirit (and you actually have a reason to do them for exclusive cars)

[@lauscho]

This game literally saved my life. I got out of a toxic relationship and had to crash with a friend for a while and I was in a really dark place. But he had a 360 and a copy of this game so I poured a lot of myself into this game, basically just kind of lost myself in it as an escape, and honestly, it was a huge part of getting back on my feet. I literally bought my own 360 after years of being only a Sony guy simply to get a copy of this game later on. Doesn't matter how much I love any other game, this one will always hold a special place in my heart.

People say that people who say "Forza Horizon 1 is my favorite of the series" are just nostalgic or something, but that's not true. This game just did it's own thing and it did it almost perfectly. They should've build upon this instead of what they did with the sequels.

[@BFIFE22G35]

I do prefer FH2 overall, but FH1 definitely had the best atmosphere out of all of them. 3 and 4 don't even feel like a festival anymore, and have no real progression and haven't really moved the series past FH2 feature wise.

[@chielwouterscw]

@@BFIFE22G35 I didn't play FH2 that much to be honest. I have seen a lot of gameplay of it and personally I think that the FH1 map looks the best out of all four. FH4 map kinda sucks imo. It feels like you're on a racetrack all the time and I think that that's what they were going for. Nonetheless they are all very good games though.

[@averagegingernut434]

I respectfully disagree, I think my experience with this game was much better the 2 and 3 where you had to grind so hard to make any money at all.

[@chielwouterscw]

@@averagegingernut434 I respect that. I personally don't really like that kind of experience because it makes me feel more like I'm working instead of playing a game. But FH4 takes the "gifts" a bit far tbh.

[@averagegingernut434]

@@chielwouterscw yeah for whatever reason, FH 2 on 360 was an absolute grind, buy the time you had finished the main "quest line" you would have just over $1,000,000 which is nothing in Forza terms.

[@Artificeral]

The guy who was brought in to compile the licensed soundtrack for this game is DJ Robert John Gorham, the founder of the real life Bestival festival. That's why the soundtrack on Horizon 1 in particular is so catchy!

[@epicdude3659]

Forza Horizon 1: hey, we have restrictions on these events meaning you can only drive a particular car, that way you get to drive something you probably wouldn't normally drive Forza Horizon 2: hey, you wanna do every event in that Supra/BMW/Dodge Charger you got at the start, you can do that, as there are no restrictions *at all*

[@divjotmand462]

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ and the restrictions also mean that your cars, car builds, and money have value and serve a purpose because they'd be useless if you can beat the game with your starter cars

[@audoinxr6372]

Best horizon so far. The rest might have had more cars, better customization and be prettier. But non have that special feel Horizon 1 has.

[@LongTimeAgoNL]

This game, so many memories. It already started when I got an invite to a closed "launch event" on a military airfield in The Netherlands. A huuuuge car show that already gave off a "horizon feel" with DJ's, parties, car and bike stunts outside, many beautifull cars... It was simply amazing. And then starting up the game, starting in a VW Corrado and slowly building up hype and fame and car collection. Everything was perfect in that game. FH2 was... I dont know, not thát impressive? FH3 was again impressive though, but the story and way of presentation was lackluster imo. The driving, events, tracks, roads, etc, were all perfect. FH4 i have yet to play.

[@rad8078]

Fh4 isn’t exactly a bad game, but it doesn’t feel anything like the original forza horizon, I don’t get any festival feel at all, no real cutscenes, no “bosses” but that’s just my opinion, although it’s my least favorite in the series I have played it quite a bit and it was received incredibly by the press

[@PedzRR]

I agree with Anthony. Horizon 4 is abides by a different philosophy, where the only 'new' things are altering seasons and purchasing houses. The devs focused more upon the (beautiful) map and adding more and more notable cars through updates. It's kinda sad to admit that you haven't missed out on anything with Horizon 4. It's a good fun game but I find myself reminiscing the older titles.

[@Skarfar90]

@@PedzRR I really like FH4, but it is true that the "magic" of the first Horizon just isn't there. They put a TON of work into FH1, experimenting and creating something entirely new, while its sequels only improved on what was already made (or altered in terms of storytelling). However, the business aspect of FH4 was brilliant, like side stories with benefits for completing them. The Isha's Taxis side story was pretty cool. Even Top Gear made a reappearance, where the player would take the role as The Stig, and some of the challenges were pretty tough to beat. Now if only we could get the first game remastered, and also released on PC... well I would have loved to play that one again

Aussie here: You're gonna LOVE Horizon 3. They really nailed the look. There's gum trees everywhere, and it really does feel like parts of the Gold Coast and maybe Queensland.

This game is very special to me it influenced my life in a big way. I have family that lives in Colorado and we would always drive to Denver to go see them. I live in New Mexico ( the state below Colorado ) and it would be so amazing to see all the locations in the game in person on the way to Denver. That town in game is a recreation Golden Colorado. That's where Coors is brewed, anyways I loved all Motorsport titles as a kid. The biggest influence on me was actually the in game music. It made me fall in love with EDM, Denver was the bass capital of the world. It felt like I lived in horizon when I would go to red rocks to see the same artists that were in the game soundtrack. I will always love this game.

"Lost some of the magic", you mean you grew up? Take off your nostalgic glasses

[@luke6818]

@@tek1645 nah it lost its magic. The new ones lack depth. Yes, the racing is arguable better as you can fine tune your car, but they went full corporate and completely ditched what made the first game unique. The first was a completely new thing for forza. A big aspect of the first was the music festival, which I would argue they've put on the sideline almost entirely. Look at the cover art for all 5 games, do any of them have the festival on the cover besides the first? No. The game also lacks any form of solid narrative. That's not to say that the game doesn't do well as an open world game, but if they're gonna take that route just fucking commit to it. The story was the main reason the first was t for Teen which they never want to happen again. The 5th one players are spoon fed everything and treated like Car Jesus who could never do anything wrong. I'm not gonna say that I don't enjoy the later installments. However, the new Forza Horizon games just become more and more soulless, created primarily to gain mass appeal and help sell xbox game pass. I can enjoy racing in FH5, but that's it. The environment doesn't have that festival feel despite there being multiple outposts, it's just an open world with trash music playing. PGG and Turn 10 sacrificed quite a but of what made the first one stand out when making the new ones

[@willdeal4367]

This game had SO many showcase events and chances to win free cars which was cool. Could even get upgrades for 100% free from smashing boards and this is where a lot will disagree with me. I liked not having off-road vehicles in this game and it had some really cool Supercars that never came back. I even liked having to use certain cars for certain events as it encouraged me to get a lot of variety in my cars. As far as I can say, this game will never die.

shadowspike74 This is true but from what I recall the 360 version was worked on by Sumo Digital who brought us all the OutRun 2 ports (props to them for that) but I feel this was too big of a project for them with this game as graphically it was a massive step back from Horizon 1. Perhaps the conspiracy theorists were onto something when it was said that the 360 version was purposely made to look like ass so as to boost sales for the Xbone console release.

Got this game for free when they used to do Games for Gold and I played it a lot actually. My only complaint is that the front bumper hit boxes seem bigger than they actually are on a lot of the cars. Meaning if you like to cut corners to squeeze between cars you’ll usually clip something and crash.

[@JEBERNARD]

Imo, Horizon 1 was the perfect one from a completion standpoint. Later entires added so much extra that it feels like getting 100% would require dropping out of school and playing full time. *Glares at Horizon 3 and winning 2,000 races...*

I randomly developed a crush on the ‘71 Skyline, so it became my character’s “personal vehicle.” If it was legal to run in an event, I ran it. I wanted to see just how far I could push it. Far, it turns out. Only the last two races of the game were too much for it (its younger sibling from ‘12 handled those just fine. Thanks for the end game ride, Marko!). I won several Gold events in it, just to prove I could. Maxed out at 195 mph by the time I was done. D to R3. That little storyline WAS the game for me. I will make sure I own that car in every Forza game that has it going forward. And I’m sure other people have “that” car for themselves, too.

Horizon 1 was virtually perfect imo. Ideas for sequel, "yeah let's get rid of the mini bosses as you progress through the wristbands thus diluting the sense of progression entirely, hey yeah great idea".

I wish we got a PC port of this game.

[@friedsallad7328]

You should totally review the test drive games, i remember them being so much fun when i was a kid

[@boyman999]

This makes me want to install some Horizon and play now. Awesome vid!

[@thomaspryor4415]

Ah, that Motorsport 4 music...brings me back.

9:30 FM3 is where I did my best art and I haven't been able to get back into it as much as I did then, and I don't know why.

Greatest game to ever exist fh1 will allways have a special place in my heart

[@woooshbait5398]

My favorite game ever

[@whiskeycorridor90]

Please review Fuel by Codemasters in the future. I loved that game back in the day.

[@ocdman3910]

Great review as always. It also makes me melancholic and a little sad because from FM4 and FH onwards you really see how Gran Turismo, and every other racing game developed for the PlayStation, for that matter, were biting the dust big time

Since you are a fan of colorful designs, try creating a rainbow paint. Red/green pearl, with sky blue gradient vinyl on the front and rear sides, fading into the middle of the car, and don't forget, sky blue squares on the front and rear bumper areas. Set the transparency of the vinyls to like 80% for this.

Forza horizon is my favorite game of this franchise, I’ve played and came back to all previous forzas but this is the one I have seen myself come back to the most, something about the Colorado vibe and the beautiful soundtrack, seriously, this is one of the, if not the best video games soundtrack, this and ncaa football 14 is the only reason I still have my Xbox 360

[@FlaccidFella]

I thought I was crazy for loving the cockpit view in this game so much
