What do you guys think of the F1-inspired visual designs? Should I do it again for different cars in a future Forza Motorsport 4 review?

[@lazersharkproductions5622]

Yes Brillant idea

[@RTPJu]

Forza 6 was a very good game... think the 5 is the worst (didn't played enough of the seventh, but it felt better than the 5 and worst than the 6... the 1, 2 and 3 were the best). I liked the skins... wish ever racing game have a painting tool. I vote for the Benetton's 87 and 91, that are two of the more beautiful cars in F1's history. But all Benetton's cars paints are beautiful: joseinacioblog.files.wordpress.com/2015/04/todos-benetton.gif

These are the guys making Fable 4 right? Im glad to see a video on them i've always wondered how taxing a driving game would be, turns out quite a bit

[@legendaryocelot]

This game will "Turn 10" next October. Let that sink in.

It's like 11 now

[@scottstreet8981]

No I will not let that sink in, I already have a sink

Let this sink in the closest thing to Forza 3 on the wii was a launch game called GT Pro Series. 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️😂 its like a horribly compressed version. 😭😂 and sad thing is excluding Kart games. Its the best racer on wii despite the graphics.......🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️😂 how? It just is they say avatar is easy to 100% 😂😂😂😂 GT is another level of oh that easy. 😂🤦‍♂️ okay i feel.....like an m.l.g. dont deserve M.L.G....i didnt do it on motion tilt.... open fire wii loyalist 😂🙄🤔 i'll wait 😂 if they ever show up😂

[@Tigermoto]

Forza 3 was definitely my favourite Forza. Most people seem to prefer 4, which i also loved, but Rally di Positano was my favourite fictional track in any game ever.

[@Phenom98]

I hated it as a kid but now I love it. I guess I wasn't nearly as good back then and that circuit was hard.

[@paulclynes9865]

Although I prefer FM4 I couldn't agree more on Positano, that track was incredible even in an F class car.

[@Phenom98]

@@paulclynes9865 bruh f class cars are fun

[@yumikomiura88]

Honestly, I could go with either one. Both offered an even larger variety of car types than the first two games.

[@black8art]

As I have said in my post above, FM3 definitely had the best tracks, and better fuel/tyre wear rates, but FM4 undoubtedly had the better car selections, if you count the DLC stuff as well! Add the former to the latter and the "PERFECT FORZA" would be created. NOT the best, ....as I reserve my idea for a "Heritage Pack" of ALL cars and ALL tracks ever implemented in that category! ...lol ....all "shapes", colours and decals and all wrapped up in the FM3-4 package!

[@PlaceboZypresse]

Ah, Forza 3. The game which not only didn't lock the M3 GTR as a unicorn car, but also had the LM version, the NY Circuit, and turned into a more professional art style.

[@MidnightClubStillCancelledSoz]

Yeah.

[@PlaceboZypresse]

Midnight Club Still Cancelled Soz is Midnight Club still cancelled?

[@batmangovno]

Also had a nice OST, in fact so nice LGR used it in a lot of his early videos.

[@MidnightClubStillCancelledSoz]

Test Drive Unlimited would make a great review, a game that was way ahead of it's time. Great video man!

[@Cyberbrickmaster1986]

I wish Eden Games would get their act together and make a TDU 3. If not, then I hope Forza Horizon will make it to Steam some time soon.

[@majesticturd9291]

Bigben is working on TDU 3 as of late 2017/ early 2018

@Walt Disney Are you sure? Because they did announce Halo: The Masterchief Collection on Steam last month or so.

[@Mitsonify]

Midnight club dub edition would be a great review to make since you are on a racing game streak and already reviewed the first, I can already hear the iconic music.

[@KudosMSGP]

Midnight Club 2 as well

[@marshalltheman9505]

I remember playing this back in 2009 and 20010 when it came it. This is back when my grandpa introduced me into Xbox. This got me into racing, and brought me closer to my grandpa, so it hold a special place in my heat. I have played every Forza game since

[@TheFurryInShambles]

It took longer to make GT5 because Polyphony's management team were all over the damn place. They wanted to make a GT4 remaster with motorcycles than changed their minds than was kinda done in 2008,but than just changed their minds again and than they got completely lost and just rushed GT5. Turn10 definitely were in their A game in the 360 era,but sadly they aren't anymore. :(

[@MrPaulmc1981]

Yeah i think they joined the money chasing band wagon with the horizon games and dont care so much for the motorsport games.

[@batmangovno]

Why? They're not just good sims now, their Horizon series is probably the best arcade racers this gen. While Polyphony lost the plot completely and doing some online-only 40$ GT with 1/8 content of GT6 5 years into the generation.

[@josephpasquini7167]

TheCraziestGamer have you played horizon 4 and 3? Turn 10 still has it

[@Renopus]

FH4 sucks just as FH3

[@squidstems]

I have no idea how people enjoy horizon. It's too arcadey. Feels like a racing game for children. The tracks in horizon have nothing on the proper circuits

[@potatolol4579]

Please please please PLEASE give Project Gotham Racing 4 a shot, it's honestly a hidden gem that I wish more people would know more about, you absolutely won't regret it

[@wolfboy20]

I also second this!!

[@giuseppe397]

Oh wow. I remember loving this game so much I was lost for words. The cars sounded great and drove great too. I'd spend ages just looking at the car detail!

[@J.Wick.]

Loved ALL of the PGR's. Especially 2. Wish they would come back.

[@Taorakis]

Forza 3 was my main game for years, i wasnt finished when #4 came out so i missed 4... but people keep telling me (too) that #4 seems to be the pinnacle Of Forza Motortsports for quite some time. Also you missed out on the best track in game with the 2nd Disk , which was the Fujimi Kaido Mountain Track. It's a Mountain Pass, astonishingly looking, and really demanding to drive! You can also live your your Initial D Fantasies there all day.

[@mr.2cents.846]

It's true. Plus, it had the Fiero. Came with the December car pack.

[@AlexToma]

Can't wait your review of the FM4. Still playing to this day. I'm nostalgic to that period and old top gear track and such an amazing game

[@waldevv]

Yeah I think FM4 is still far superior to the current gen versions. I haven't played 3 yet even though I got a used copy but I definitely will play through that too when I get the time

[@XDLugia]

Indeed. Not only is it a damn good game, but the whole mood of the game is amazing. I played it a few weeks ago and I spent like 10 minutes just looking at the panning shots of my car on the airport while enjoying the excellent menu music that Forza always nails.

[@HelicopterDown]

I remember playing this (about 2012 or so) when I was a kid and thinking how incredible the graphics looked for a 2009 game.

[@ItsRawdraft2]

Most underrated reviewer on this platform. Keep it up!

[@djterminus]

So glad to see your channel growing. The amount of research and effort you put into your reviews instantly put you in my top 3 channels back when i first started watching your videos. Plus you've got a laidback personality that I really dig. Love this stuff dude, thanks for the vids.

[@sorubro2193]

Man, I love your channel, your interest for older games is admirable, specially for me, because i'm on a budget.

[@lildiaz6184]

Forza 4 is gonna raise his expectations for Forza 5, he’s gonna be disappointed

[@XDLugia]

Like we all were...

[@paulclynes9865]

Yep, played all 3 FM's on 360, completed every race in all of them and got every achievement and was attempting to get every single car in my garage in FM4 before I moved over to XB1. I haven't bought a single Motorsport game for it yet, played the demo of FM5 and read + seen how little content there was in the game so I didn't bother buying it, and had lost interest in the series by the time FM6 came out. So FM5 basically killed my love of a series that I spent more time with than any other from 2009-2015.

[@TheJayden3977]

It’s going to be the same with Horizon 4 lmao.

[@Rrodfer]

FM3 is great but FM4 is AMAZING!! More cars, beautiful graphics, Jeremy Clarkson and some top gear content.

Absolutely love your reviews of these old games - really creative idea I'm surprised no one else has really done, or if they have they haven't done it well enough to get noticed :) These always bring back fond memories for the games i've played (and sometimes non-fond memories like the horrible controls of saints row which i completely empathise with) but you've also opened my eyes to stuff i also missed back in the day and going to give a try for the first time like you. Keep em coming and don't change your style - it's perfect!

I literally bought a 360 just for this game and RDR. I hadn't had a console since the Sega Genesis, but those two games twisted my arm and made me say uncle. I've no regrets. What a great experience it was.

I have the same Life-story,i've always had Sony products,was a Playstation and Gran Turismo fanboy. About 3 years ago a friend gave me an Xbox360 as Birthday gift. At a pawn shop i bought Forza Motorsport 4 and it became my favorite racing game ever.

[@dogjr2fast4u75]

They need to bring back all of these fictional tracks in either a Forza 7 update or whenever Forza 8 comes out. They might because the brought back Maple Valley.

Your videos are top notch quality, you defo deserve more subs and views.

[@paulclynes9865]

Looking forward to your FM4 review, FM4 is the absolute pinnacle of Forza in my opinion. I'd even recommend you get gold just so you can see how fantastic the multiplayer is and how many options there are in it, there is probably less than 5 games I've played in my whole life I'd say that about.

[@F1fan4eva]

Paul Clynes I came from fm2 and just got 4 and I can see so many improvements! But, there are little things that bug me to no end. The HUD UI is lacking, customization is slow due to the menu structure, upgrades are cheaty (free after level 4 affinity), they've gotten rid of brand names for different after market parts.

[@cerberus144]

My first Forza, and I'm nostalgic very hard for this. I made an IN-N-OUT BURGER Ford Fusion Stock Car

[@bvmark]

Hi Spencer. Really love your reviews. So glad you have gotten round to FM3, shame your 2nd disc didn't work though - hopefully you'll pick up another copy especially as this game is so cheap now - maybe we'll see a part 2 on FM3 one day ;0) Cant wait till you get round to FM4 . ( Ps - you should work in journalism - your so good at the way you structure your reviews to make watching so interesting)

This is when FM came into its own and finally became serious competition for GT.

Best music, styling and even today the menu layout goes perfect in 2022, interiors, ton of tuning stuff, own custom designs to make, i loved it, beautiful detailed cars i could look for hours with the background music. -riding the rail. Nice review you did justice xd haha

[@fiber3065]

Love the review style! Can't wait for you to get to FM4 and the Forza Horizon games!

[@rtrojosh]

Seeing the game around 5 years after our Xbox 360 breaking just flooded me with a huge wave of nostalgia. I remember being so far in the campaign mode. I had a lime green Porsche 911 that I upgraded to dominate the competition. Then like a month after the Xbox broke. I've been wanting to get a copy of the game again so we can play it on our Xbox One (if that's possible) because my brothers' friend stole it off us.

[@dannyrivera8300]

Ahh forza 3 the game that got me hooked on Forza

[@lordhaussig]

Probably the game I spent the most time with on the 360. I still love this one, even if I didn't play for years now. But man, that game was all in all just kinda perfect at the time. My dad and I had the Special Edition, which offered a keyring and a USB stick as well in a nice box you couls fold open in the middle. For just 5 (five!) bucks more than the normal edition. You won't find that anymore today, do you?

[@PackardKotch]

The intro of this game is amazing. Maybe I’m saying that because it was the first game I played a lot on my Xbox 10 years ago, but I do think that it’s great. That first “chord”-ish water droplet style sound as the camera pans around the R8...

[@RTPJu]

Australian V8 Supercars is made by God and endorsed by the Devil... my favorite racing category after the long gone Group B. IMHO, Forza was amazing from the first to the third... after it the series turn hard into a more arcadish approach, that I didn't liked because it took the worst of both worlds and became a bureaucratic arcade. But a lot of folks preferred that way, for one reason or another... overall I think that T10 made it smart, since most racing players are very casual about their games.

[@sirtra]

Oh and suggestion for future - need for speed: pro street This has a unique race event method where you pick a primary and secondary car for a series of different events, if you damage one though you gotta complete the rest with what you got - it's a cool balance of playing it safe taking 2 all-purpose cars vs taking say a street car + drift car to specifically suit the races in the series - no other racing game has ever done this and i loved it. It adds a whole different level to just picking your best car per race like most other racers.. makes you actually feel like your loading up a truck with 2 cars and heading out for a weekend of racing in another city. Plus when you return you gotta pay to fix any damage to your cars which takes away credits for new cars/upgrades, sort of like running a race team, again adding a whole new layer of realism/immersion beyond just physics. It's also the closest to underground 2 in terms of fun IMO

[@lm_dccxl4078]

now that you barely mentioned it, a need for speed shift review will be awesome

[@rofljocke]

I remember playing a demo of this at a gamestop and was so blown away with the graphics

[@dustindarland4373]

I remember when it was new, it was the 1st game I played online. The multiplayer mode was pretty cool, but because of the skill points system it got pretty crazy, if you stumbled into a lobby where everyone were friends and you were winning the whole lobby would participate into stopping you.

[@lazersharkproductions5622]

[@TheLukesterGaming]

Woah I literally just logged in to KZbin and found this video had JUST been published 1 minute ago! 😲 Though I watched the video first before commenting, as tempting as it was for being early! This was another great video review for Forza Motorsport 3 here anyway, as well as some awesome F1 inspired paint jobs/liveries there too! 👍😃 This game was actually the first and still to date, only game in the Forza Motorsport series that I've fully 100% completed fully game and all achievements for! 🙌 Though I did recently go back through to 100% FM2 and still have a very loooong way to go with FM4, having also recently started to FM5 too as of November 2018! 🏎

[@IMe7x]

FM4 Is very long, took 40+ hours to complete the career mode alone, the challenges are tough too but i haven't completed as of yet and there are ALOT of them.

[@hatsuseno]

Another great review for the collection!

[@adny02]

Great video Another cool and neat feature that was in FM3 was a quite expensive one for the die hard fans. If you had 3 xbox 360s, 3 copies of the game, and 3 monitors, the game actually supported a link feature that would stretch the video across the 3 monitors to give you that left/front/right field of view for that real panorama experience. Each xbox would handle one of the views from a particular monitor, making sure the full view all together maintain full visual quality. As oppose to downgrades you'd typically get from split screen games. I've seen it for the interior of the car. I'm not sure how that looked if it worked for the exterior view settings. This feature was eventually removed after FM4.

[@PankekoTheDragon]

Hey, have you played Street Racing Syndicate ? id love a review !

[@davidmatthews7766]

you can get rid of most scratches on your disc using toothpaste and a soft damp (not wet) cloth. going across the disc and not around it. don't scrub hard just lightly and let the paste do the job. rinse off and dry also with a soft cloth. (no lint) basically your using light abrasion to get rid of large scratches and polishing at the same time.

[@sakkusen]

Ahhh amazing, finally it's here! Also, odd that your character doesn't shift in first person. I swear when I play FM3 he not only actually shifts, but also pulls the handbrake when using it (which is something the series removed in new titles :/ )

[@mickeycoolmouse]

Would love to see a shift or shift 2 review in the future

[@biditnow8869]

No mention of the addition of being able to shift with a clutch?! That was one of the most polarizing aspects of this game for me. It had a steep learning curve, due to having to relearn to brake with the middle finger instead of index (index was clutch). However, it was extremely rewarding to master the clutch. It was extremely satisfying to drive on 100% expert mode without any driving aids in FM3, even more so than FM2. Piloting the top tier race cars was immensely satisfying I remember especially so.

[@chrisis649]

I once played it in a departmental store, I was amazed by the graphics, the physics, the icon track, new cars (back when it was new) and the inclusion of 1st person view, a week later I got my hands on this game so I had lot's of fun until I lend the game to some friend of mine, nevertheless it's very good

[@MadeInEnland]

[@nitrousexplosion10]

I would change your assists before entering drag mode, use manual with clutch. try some motor swaps on cars too, fh3 has engine swaps that are exclusive to that game, like the 540 hemi. But overall great review!!

[@ThaSwitcherTayTay]

6:35 ‘quality over quantity’... This nailed it for me back in this games glory days. I jumped from GT4 to FM3; skipping the first two Forza games. Mainly because I had an Xbox 360 and didn’t get the PS3 until 4 years later in 2014. I was blown away. The customization, playground game modes, healthy lineup of cars with the right amount from each manufacturer. In between, I got a chance to play GT5, and i couldn’t get into it after being used to the customization of Forza. Even when I eventually got GT6 on sale later on, I was still missing the Forza series and I would still jump on FM4 over GT6 just because quantity over quality. I rather have a smaller number of polished cars than 55 editions of the R34 Skyline, and badge engineered Toyotas with their Lexus counterparts. When I played GT6, it was always a disappointment when I bought my favorite car just to find out it that it was a ‘low quality’ model with less detail and no interior (this was before they updated the game to let you know if it was a detailed model before you bought it). It felt like I was playing a GT4 expansion pack. Not saying that GT is bad, it’s just Forza does it better for what I look for in racing simulators. Gran Turismo is more of an interactive car museum; it’s pretty fun to read on cars that wouldn’t be in any other racing game. Also, to be fair, GT6 had a way better online experience than any of the Forza (Motorsport) games I’ve played.

[@stepladder3257]

I know its your opinion, but i could not call Forza a sim racer, and that's why I enjoyed GT6 more than FMS4 at the time. Gran Turismo, Asetto Corsa, and Project Cars are my go to racers for sims

Another great review man! The Forza series was in top of their game with FM4, FM5 was a flop, and 6 and 7 are a very good attempt to wash that bloat of a game of FM5. Check out PGR4, the game is a hidden gem on the 360

I like the additional content, the option to repaint racecars and some quality of life improvements in the editor, but apart from that this game disappointed me a bit by removing big parts of the established rpg-like unlocking systems and with how understeery the cars are. Also while it's nice to be able to tune road cars into racing classes it doesn't do much if they handle so much worse. Would rather like a system where you can use professional grade upgrades and get a matching effect. In Forza 2 you could tune some of the super cars to really keep up with the racecars.

Forza 4 just adds quite a bit more content and tracks while retaining the same engine and formula. At least visual gear shifting is included. If you're coming off from Gran Turismo 4, the LMP cars feel vastly different. In arcade, you can set the tires to be extremely grippy, which may come as a shock as the cars turn quicker than expected, taking some fine input on the thumbstick to master. In Forza, it's a little more forgiving, however the back ends like to slide around, so mashing on the gas right after a turn might lead to a spinout. I've turned off all the visual clutter and go strictly for first person view for that true racing simulation feel, you'd be surprised how difficult certain race cars are to drive with ginormous blind spots! The Peugeot 908 for example, extremely fast, but also extremely difficult to drive, since the windshield is tiny, and the rear view mirrors aren't in your peripheral sight. Open air cockpits are a blast, and I highly recommend those to beginner drivers in the LMP class.
