Forza 6

[BlackbirdM3]

I'm debating buying an Xbox so I can play this. What is the difference between the basic Forza 6 game and the Ultimate version? I'm a huge Gran Turismo fan, but the fact that I can get an e30 M3 in Forza is pretty cool (and a datsun roadster, but I can get that in GT as well.) I have no interest in paying extra for stuff I have no interest in, and to be honest, $90 for a game is stupid.

It seems that it'll change each week. They assign you a heat and a set of rules a few days ahead of time. It's double elimination

What's the car/track?

I was going to vacation in the PNW and go mountain biking.... BUT we'll see if I can make it into the top bracket. Only 1500 people signed up so far.

I'm going to give it a whirl.

Get that money! I'm heading to COTA so no chance for me :(

So, I got dirt rally the other day. That game is AMAZING. It would definitely suck without a wheel though.

Yeah, that game looks awesome! I'm not putting out for a wheel though.

I was already retired when forza 2 came out, and forza 4 was the best game in the series and ever!

There was a group of a few people all using those hideous porsche suvs and their only goal was to wait by the finish line and crash into everyone. Go play... burnout? what was that crash-everything game?

Let's form a crotchety old man racing group where we sit around and complain about those teenagers ruining our good times and "back in Forza 2 we didn't have rewind and that's the way we liked it!"

I read that Japan made it prohibitively expensive for non-Japanese companies to license Japanese tracks for some reason, but I have very little sympathy for a giant developer having to pay more.

I tried S class yesterday and ran into the worst player I've encountered so far. He actually targeted me specifically, following me between lobbies. Look up replays wwwww through wwwww4 if you're curious-I've shared them so Turn 10 can have a look and hopefully ban the guy.

Both really. Too many issues with this game which were never addressed, and the online racing is really just crash avoidance practice most of the time. Besides, there's plenty of content in this game to keep me happy for a while; I can't imagine how much they'll improve in the next installment.

Things I would like to see: first lap is a ghost lap in online multiplayer. I've gotten into some good races, but 99% of the time you're right.... just avoiding accidents.....

I would like more options for upgraded components, such as Gran Turismo has-- like soft, medium, and hard compound tires, different spool target turbos, etc. OH, and rallying! FM5 had it, poorly, but it could have been improved upon and brought back! I would really like to take my rally cars with the option rally light bars onto actual rally tracks.... And bring back Tsukuba and Suzuka!

Anyone on horizon 3?

[ELVA164]

Won't join in on F7 or FH3? I've never cared for arcade racers outside of mario cart. I wonder if some newer games will be xboS only. Like how some new 3DS games are "new"3DS only.....

Just save it up and release a new platform/system, people.... I'm getting tired of 5 iterations of the same machine.

Although Horizon 3 is good all I can think about when playing it is how crazy Forza 7 is going to look.

I'll be curious to see it, but probably won't join in.
