Should be out in the 4th Q so most likely an October release.

What is Forza Horizon you may ask? Well it's an open world racing game. That's pretty much what most people know as of yet.

As a GT fan, I must say you FM guys are lucky, Turn 10 is really spoiling the community with all this content. Open world Forza? Def picking this shit up

Well IMO, Turn 10 is milking us like Activision and their crappy FPS.

Still though, i don't mind it.

Forza 5 most likely out by next year.

3 Forza titles in 3 years

Do you like... drive to the track? I have to be misunderstanding 'Open World'. Is it like Midnight Club? Do I drive to tracks, or is it street racing? Real world streets/tracks?

As cool as it would be to cruise a raced-out EF9 around the Wangan all night and then drive to Ibaraki to hit up Tsukuba for track day, I think it'd get stale quick. I'm a sucker for car collecting/tuning and hot laps, I'll be waiting for F5 to cave in and buy a 360.

if its anything like test drive unlimited, the entire city/locale is the race track. in tdu you go to an area and it begins a challenge, like make it from point A to B in certain amount of time, or drive this vehicle to this area without getting into an accident.

its closer to tdu and midnight club then the old forza/gt games

its pretty much equal to gt5, except there are a lot more options for decals and exterior mods, not so much interior other then adding a cage i believe.

i would imagine this game will be slightly less sim and more arcadey but i have no idea just speculating based on past games.

Yes yes yes yes, Forza... outside of the track. Stoked with this and now Most Wanted being worked on with the guys from Burnout, going to have two great racing games to look forward to. Now off to play Forza 4 to get my fix.

Looks like I won't be getting a 360 for this one, and that I'll be waiting for Project C.A.R.S just like everyone else. Cannot wait to rip around Spa in the Lotus-Renault 98T. Forza Horizon looks to be on some cornball NFS tip, albeit with better physics.

Forza Horizon will stay play like Forza. So no, it is not on some "cornball NFS tip."

You really shouldn't buy a system just for one game.

I wouldn't buy a PS3 just for GT5. That alone is not worth spending $200 on a whole new system.

One day though, Forza and GT will join forces. Maybe not in our lifetime but it will happen.

Nah, C.A.R.S. will make them both extinct when it touches consoles. Real tracks. Real race cars. Real race physics. Realistic graphics. I will be buying a solid wheel setup when it comes out. I have a suspicion that it won't touch consoles 'til next gen though.

I almost bought a modded 360 for $100 the other day, just for FM4. I could justify a console for a solid racing game or two.

Point-to-point racing is that cheese factor. Especially if it's street racing and involves traffic. If they some how he keep realism whilst doing that, I'll eat my hat, but I have doubts.
