Forza Motorsport 5 Review | CheatCC

CCC Says: "The launch of a video game generation can be difficult on the average gamer. There are so many important decisions to be made. On top of choosing one console over another if your means don’t permit buying all three, there’s also the matter of choosing the first few games you’ll get. This dilemma is underscored by the fact that the first few games you purchase will likely be the only ones you’ll play for the initial months of the life of the console, which means they have to be excellent, or you’ll be bored out of your mind until releases start to pick up."

I don't agree with the company or system, and haven't played the game, but have a hard time believing this score.

MadLad3811d ago (Edited 3811d ago )

You can find bad looking sections of any game. Not saying it is a technical marvel, but still.

NarooN3810d ago

Not really hard to believe. It's not as if 3.4/5 is abysmal or anything. Just means that it's average/above average.

jerethdagryphon3811d ago

hand full of tracks 200 cars and a really repititive game play, graphically cars look really nice but everything else is really just a hair over last gen

iamgoatman3811d ago

"really repititive game play"

It's a racing game, really not sure what you're expecting.

jerethdagryphon3810d ago

I meant the campain structure was watching streams and thst seems to be the consensus

2 cents3810d ago

Just because it`s a racing game does not mean it has to be boring. If you add some weather change that can spice things up. Also there are so many racing disciplines out there to keep every racing fans entertained for months, but only a few have been implemented. Think about karting, truck racing, rally cross, hill climbing, open wheel racing, nascar etc.... And strategies during the race are virtually non existent.
Personally i would like to have a race crew mode where you can hire racing engineers, mechanics, personel etc, which you could manage and which could provide some off track time rather than having to keep racing non stop which can get a bit boring after a while.
And ,common, 20 tracks?! We`ve had more back in the ps2 era.

Grimhammer003810d ago

Also if AI in a racer is like PGR of old....repetitive is a word I'd use.

Not saying the AI is this though.

hennessey863811d ago

Forza gets, Turn 10 have consistantly delivered great racing games.

MadLad3810d ago

People disagree as though that were a false statement.
*shakes head*

u got owned3810d ago

well he is praising aA XBone developer in N4G. What else should you expect. Just N4G been typical N4G.

NarooN3810d ago

What he said was an opinion, so I don't see what's wrong with people disagreeing with it.

Hicken3810d ago (Edited 3810d ago )

Regardless of what they've delivered in the past, this is NOT one of their best efforts.

Besides, it's his opinion, not a fact. It's perfectly possible that those who disagreed don't think Turn 10's games have been great.

OR people could be disagreeing with him not getting the hate Forza is getting. (I seem to recall Hennessey also spreading a pretty large amount of hate for GT, as well, making him far from neutral. That said, I'm not neutral, either, but I can at least provide better reasoning than "because it's an Xbox game.") I can't speak on previous games- I COULD, but I won't- but THIS game is getting hate because of the builds that were on display that look FAR better than the retail build. I'm sure all three of you know damn well why Forza's getting trashed in comments, and I'm sure you all don't think there's NOTHING to that. You may even agree, privately.

But publicly, you've thrown your lot in with Microsoft, so you have to defend them. THAT is something I don't get. When you get lied to or screwed over, you should be pissed; you shouldn't be defending the company that did it.

Well, I guess that's the difference between a fan, and a fanboy.

Edit: When was the last time a Call of Duty was ill received? Yet it's pretty well known that Activision's devs phone the games in. We all know they shouldn't get the review scores they get, and yet they do, every time.

Besides, are you referring to reviewers or gamers? To gamers overall, or just to MS fans? Forza has been criticized in the past for looking cartoony, for lacking the focus of an actual sim. But that's been largely brushed off.

And whether or not previous games were ill received by any particular group- and you're deluding yourself if you think NO ONE has disliked a Forza before- that wouldn't mean that the people who disagreed with his statement are automatically childish.

Hell, that you give a disagree that much weight shows your own level of childishness. Your won willingness to say, "If you disagree with me, you're wrong, and petty, and a child, and ignorant." It's actually downright hypocritical.

MadLad3810d ago

Please, let me know of a single Turn 10 game that was ill received. If you can, I will retract my statement.
If not, every single disagree comes from the equivalent of a child - someone who knows not, or considers not of anything but their own biased and limited view of the world.

Shadow Flare3810d ago (Edited 3810d ago )

So you praise turn 10 for making the franchise go backwards?

Less content, less tracks. Forza 2 had more content. Still no night, still no weather of any kind.

Then they noticeably downgraded the graphics from the e3 version, and lied about it. They said the pc it was running on before was xbone spec. Clearly it wasn't

Dynamic crowds to 2d cardboard

Need I go on? Forza 5 got gimped massively in order to hit 1080p 60fps. And we should applaud Turn 10 for this?

It doesn't bother me, I was never getting forza. But if any game I loved regressed with newer additions, I would be livid. I feel like that exactly towards the new NFS Most Wanted compared to the ps2 version as I feel they removed a lot of the features from the old version. I was livid.

So to praise turn 10 for gimping your game is tragic.

spike3810d ago

Fonza 5 is good but I think Need For Speed Rivals is better.

GamersHeaven3810d ago

A rushed game with 2D carboard cut outs with baked lighting,muddy textures clay model cars gets a pass if this was GT6 or GT7 reviewers would be irate giving this game 6 and 7's.

Knushwood Butt3810d ago

I think most of the people that review GT games can't even make it beyond a handful of licence tests, then spend what little remaining time they have with the game grinding Sunday Cup races.

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.

bluefox7551742d ago

Not to mention the worst rated game in the series.

mijayire1742d 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.

IRetrouk1742d 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.

lxeasy2433d ago

The Games for Gold this month are pretty good

DaNineTwo2433d ago

I have no idea why you got disagrees.

shinrock2433d ago (Edited 2433d ago )

Because ur in Sonyland.

DaGreatOne2433d 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.

TheSaint2433d ago

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

EazyC2434d 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

Keep it neutral, fanboy.

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