MNJ:
Forza Motorsport 6 continues to make ther franchise stronger, adding in new tracks, effects and features to test even the most seasoned of players. What surprised me the most is that you don't have to be a major fan of the series to get to grip with this game as it has settings to suit all players abilities and pairs you with people that you will actually have a chance at beating. This game has rekindled my excitment for the racing genre and I nowe find myself on the track for hours rather than behind gun. Forza Motorsport 6 is the must have racing game this year, in fact forget that you simply must play it, it is just that good.
KeenGamer: "See the top 10 rarest cars to ever appear in Forza history! Thousands of cars have been featured in Forza since launch and only a handful of them have been really difficult to obtain or, in current state, impossible to drive around with. Although they were once obtainable, it's only for a limited time and, most times, for a certain price."
I thought this was going to be about the rarest and most valuable cars in the game, based on real life manufacture numbers and value.
We've found the top 10 deals of the week for you to set out on your own adventure, whether that means fighting zombies, exploring the depths of madness, or becoming champion of the black top. Check out these deals inside.
Forza Motorsport 6 will enter "End of Life" status on 15th September, so make sure you own it and its DLC before then if you want to play it.
Replies(1)Theres no benefit. They just dont renew the licenses for the songs and cars so after the 15th u cant buy it
Oh licenses. That makes sense. So if you have it digitally already you can still play it you just cant buy it?
Yeah, the expiring-licenses thing is a blight on the scene. There literally ought to be a law. Once something is licensed for a product, it should never become an impediment later on. Simple consumer protection. In racing games, both the cars and the music would be locked in place. The developer can't add newer car models, or different songs. I don't see why that would hurt the profits of car companies or artists. Newer games would have to license the newer cars and songs, or even the same ones.
Edit: mandingo, that's right.
Saving on licensing costs.
@cobra
They could pay more for perpetual licenses, but after 4 years, chances are they arent going to be making much of a return on the game anymore.
again, a music license issue. This is the same reason Driveclub is getting delisted next year.
I'm sorry, but if music rights can be the cause of a product being delisted, they need to either have unlicensed music because this is ridiculous. This is actually another reason to be concerned about an all-digital future.
or hopefully when ugly things stick their head out like this music license issue, that the companies do the right thing and find a solution so this doesnt happen, then we can complain if they dont. Digital games is fairly new so why dont we first see if the companies fix these issues that pop up. not that we shouldnt be heard and to let them know about these issues but at least lets not attack them for no reason
@bolimekurac,
They've already had years to deal with this. This isn't the first instance of license music altering a game in some form. Crazy Taxi wasn't even allowed to be released with the original soundtrack and many of the real world stores in the game were cut for licenses.
I know it's not exactly' the same, but the issues is close enough that the industry as a whole should have realized this would be a problem even back in the ps3/ 360 era win crazy taxi was re-released for modern day.
Oh crap idk about drive club, I’m so glad you mentioned it, and I just happen to be in this article. I’ve been wanting that game but was waiting until ps5 to get it. Now i need to check into this cause hell I’ll buy it now if I need to.
It looks like there is a hard copy version, so I can pick that up cheap, the online stuff which I don’t usually do is what goes away in 2020, and it can’t be bought on psn
Oh you should def get Driveclub such a great game now after server/updates. One of my all time fav racers. Nice mix of Arcade/Sim. Not Sim, Arcade or Sim/Arcade.
I'd highly recommend bikes if you get driveclub. Lots of fun. The vr version is also good if you have psvr.
About the only thing you're going to lose with the delisting is the online functions as well. Driveclub is playable in SP with lots of content though. It's just being part of a club and user challenges or throw downs won't be available after they shut down the servers.
Or it's not that big of a deal since it's a long running franchise and there is already the newer versions you can still buy. If you already own FM6 you can still play it.
This is a definitely a huge concern for an all-digital future. Along the fact that they can control whatever price they want you to pay even 5 years later, like Destiny and Call of Duty. You can't even buy the original games anymore, they just re-bundle them and force you to pay full price again.
It happens in other entertainment too. I have seen DVD series held up for years because of music licensing issues. It is annoying. I agree with the person that it should be a one time deal. With the creation of a product, things like music licensing should be done with that product going forward. Such a headache apparently.
Good thing physical copies will always exist for purchase in a thriving used game market.
There’s at least 3 people who like games being delisted; never to be played again.
I just bought this a few months ago on a very cheap sale, then I think recently it was added to game pass.
Great to see the high scores this is getting. I really loved the demo - the gameplay is tight and challenging with the assists turned off - just how a racing sim should be.
I've loved all the Forza games, both the Motorsport and Horizon iterations, but if I had to pick the one I thought was the best id pick Forza 4... And it seems like this game is shaping up to rival that game!
"Forza Motorsport 6 is the must have racing game this year"
That is saying that nothing else released this year is as good. Strong statement from a reviewer.
Forza 6 is the new king of racing games.
This game is getting great review scores, good stuff.
To be honest I'm a little bit annoyed that Sony haven't released a quality racing game yet this gen. Where on earth is Gran Turismo? It has been nearly two years, I would have thought a Gran Turismo game would have been announced at launch or soon after. That's the only disappointment for me at the moment, because currently, Forza is unmatched.
