Forza 5 Won’t See a PC Release, Would Need Port or Rewrite

Colton Stuery writes: "Corporate Vice President of Microsoft Game Studios, Phil Spencer, in responding to a question on Twitter, has confirmed Forza 5 would need either a port or a complete rewrite if the game were to come to PC. The curious tweet that incited Spencer’s response asked if Forza 5 would be seen on home PC’s, as the Xbox One uses the same OS (Windows 8). Spencer claimed that the game “doesn’t run on the Windows side of the OS so any Forza on Windows would be a rewrite or port.”"

Misleading title. He never said it wouldn't be on PC.

Peekayboo3753d ago

Forza was ran on a pc at E3 and then the graphics were downgraded for the Xbox one release

curtis923753d ago

More lies. If they want to keep it on XB1, I totally get it... but we're not stupid. Don't lie and say it can't/won't run on a PC when that's clearly ALL you demoed leading up to lauch.

GUTZnPAPERCUTZ3753d ago

It has to do with software, not hardware lol.

MorePowerOfGreen3753d ago (Edited 3753d ago )

Forza was not running on PC lol. Eurogamer and other confirmed that many times when the games was shown throughout. Nothing was downgraded. Trolls were photoshopping pics to attack the game due to its graphical hype. No serious media that kept up with the game reported on that.

You must be talking about this Neogaf fake.

Forza 5 still looks like the right pic/side. I play it everyday. The left image was altered and faked by crazy a55 Sony fanboys.

That left pic in the Cinemabled-Neogaf was messed with. Here is a more recent video.

There is a reason only PS4 fanboys and pro Sony websites report on the "downgrade" when no other gamers and media do not. I mean come on, think!!!

allgamespc20123752d ago

we all know and they even admitted to demoing the games on pcs and not xbox

TheROsingleB3753d ago

Why is this news? To my knowledge, none of the Forza games came to PC and were never expected to.

hiptanaka3753d ago

Bull*hit. Microsoft simply needs an excuse to keep it exclusive to the Xbox One.

TukkerIntensity3753d ago

sorry PC gamers will have to just keep playing the vastly superior race sims on the PC lol oh darn!

sorane3753d ago

One of them? You don't know much about the PC racing scene do you. Here's a whole list of better racing sims(forza isn't even a real sim as it is).

pandehz3753d ago (Edited 3753d ago )

Lol race sims and console? Yea keep the Forzas and Gts, we get a buttload of those types.

PC's took going behind the wheel to a whole another level.

I want Halo here not Forza. MS do something.

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.

bluefox7551738d ago

Not to mention the worst rated game in the series.

mijayire1738d 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.

IRetrouk1738d 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.

lxeasy2429d ago

The Games for Gold this month are pretty good

DaNineTwo2429d ago

I have no idea why you got disagrees.

shinrock2428d ago (Edited 2428d ago )

Because ur in Sonyland.

DaGreatOne2428d 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.

TheSaint2428d ago

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

EazyC2429d 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

senorfartcushion2429d ago

Ps propagandist article and post.

Keep it neutral, fanboy.

senorfartcushion2427d ago

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