Forza Motorsport 5 review - MMGN

MMGN: Some say, Forza Motorsport 5 is the standout Xbox One launch game. All I know is it’s the best demonstration of what Microsoft’s new console is capable of across the board. With stunning visuals, complete trigger rumble and a redesigned AI system that makes bots redundant, in the words of events host Jeremy Clarkson, Forza 5 will make you cramp in your smile muscles.

....and another ONE. Daamm Forza 5 is looking gooooooood.

first1NFANTRY3802d ago

shame it's gonna sell just as bad as the rest lol. GT 10+ million each launch says hi chump.

lastofgen3802d ago

you're one of the main reasons making it harder for everyone to get along..

GodGinrai3802d ago

@first1NFANTRY

Do you feel that way when comparing halo sales VS killzone? or how about Gears Vs uncharted sales?

How about we just let this be about games. That way when these kinds of arguments go against you, you dont have to back pedal.

drsfinest723802d ago

lmfaoo The realness just schooled you first!NFANTRY you damn chump

GuyThatPlaysGames3802d ago

@firstinfantry . Stop being such a troll. Nobody likes a troll. I've always liked the Forza series much better than the GT series. I've already got my PS4 and it sucks that imma miss Forza 5 because I will not be buying the XB1. I know for sure I'm not getting another GT game. After playing something so great as Forza, it's hard to go back to the Gt series.

first1NFANTRY3802d ago

lol just poking a little fun in this fanboy war. lighten up you bunch of sensitive divas.

givemeshelter3802d ago

So sales determine how great a game is? Good god... What are you. Five?

JasonKCK3802d ago

I never understood why people even talk about sales. Can't play sales, it's not a game.

kewlkat0073802d ago

You guys just straight troll..no shame on this site

VENOMACR12273802d ago

For once Jokesonyou didnt cry as he typed a big wall of text , things like this are probably a big thing in this guys life..this 9/10 makes his day, to him its probably like a normal person getting promoted or having their first child... bless him poor guy.

@below Just in oxm gave it a 9 too

Official xbox magazine gave a 9 0.0 wow i need to sit down.

testerg353802d ago

Aren't you the one that complained about xbox fans being 12yr olds? You must be 11 then?

christocolus3802d ago (Edited 3802d ago )

" Forza 5 is the first game to truly look next-gen.
The ancient streets of Prague, the Bernese Alps and the famous Le Mans light up the screen with stunning realism, but doesn’t quite carry over to Australia’s Bathurst at Mount Panorama, which clearly didn’t have the same attention to detail. Still, it’s better than anything found in competing racing sims and Super Cheap Auto will be happy with the blaring promotion. The only complaint is the early morning sun in some tracks goes overboard with lens-flair — it’s enough to get a standing ovation from JJ Abrams."

Just in oxm gave it a 9 too

avengers19783802d ago

I would throw out any "official Xbox magazine" oxm review, just like I wouldn't listen to any playstation magazine review of a playstation game.
That being said from all the reviews I've seen it seems to average an 8/10

lastofgen3802d ago

and yet they also awarded dead rising 3 a 7.5, lower than the metacritic score.

Whether you want to believe it or not, some of these websites that name themselves after their console of choice are not biased when they review the games. Same goes for websites that name themselves after playstation.

Clarence3802d ago

Xbox magazine gave it a 9! What a surprise.

christocolus3802d ago

You could find out all the sites that awarded it a 9 by going to metacritic..you will also see some perfect scores there.

VENOMACR12273802d ago

Funny how all the PS haters comment on the one 7/10 but have nothing to say to the 8, 9, and 10s. Glad this game is killing it.

christocolus3802d ago

Lmao....was just thinking the same thing.

rela82me3802d ago

Only 8 out of the 31 reviews on metacritic are below an 80... This game is being received VERY well... I hope that Ryse can follow suit, but I will wait and see.

XboxFun3802d ago

Nice, good score. Not a racing fan but I'm glad this is getting some love. DR3 is too and that will be the go to game for me this launch day.

Looking back to 2014 and Forza Motorsport 5 Racing GOTY Edition

Carlos writes - "When it was time for Forza 5 to rock on up to the track, we were just entering the third generation of Xbox consoles, and to show off all that extra horsepower that would come inside the Xbox One, they wanted a flagship title that could truly showcase just what miracles the next generation could perform. And what better title than Microsoft’s beloved racer!"

Such s supreme racing title. Hands down racing franchise of recent decades. Nothing has come close in quality or ratings.

bluefox7551731d ago

Not to mention the worst rated game in the series.

mijayire1731d ago

Apart from Forza 5. Talking about generally the Forza series has always been rated high. Perhaps Forza 5 was rushed for launch. Although made up again by Forza 6 and 7.

IRetrouk1731d ago

I liked the game well enough, it was a good starting point for the new gen and helped them build up to what motorsport 7 is now, the controversies wasnt with the numbers of cars or tracks though, it was more to do with the pc footage being passed off as xbox one, the downgrade from what they originally had shown caused more upset than the numbers.

Are the free Xbox Games With Gold titles for September 2017 any good?

James writes - "So here we are with a new month about to begin, and we all know by now that means a number of new games are about to be gifted to all Xbox One and Xbox 360 players via the Xbox Games With Gold scheme for September2017. The free games of last month were passable if truth be told, but can September’s offerings make it a month to remember, or one to skip over?"

Well...lets see. So FM5 is 2013's Racer of the Year, while Oxenfree was nominated and won all types of awards as an indie game in 2016. On the BC side, both games are classics.

lxeasy2422d ago

The Games for Gold this month are pretty good

DaNineTwo2422d ago

I have no idea why you got disagrees.

shinrock2422d ago (Edited 2422d ago )

Because ur in Sonyland.

DaGreatOne2422d ago

I got disagrees for pointing the same thing out the psn games coming. I doubt some people actually enjoy games that visit this site.

TheSaint2421d ago

I swear some people just go into topics and hit disagree on every post for no reason.

EazyC2422d ago

Of course they are. The competition between PS Plus and GwG is getting good now, expect more great months on both sides

Damn good month. No doubt

senorfartcushion2422d ago

Ps propagandist article and post.

Keep it neutral, fanboy.

Profile picture, son. I'm an adult, I don't do that fanboy nonsense.
