Best Open-World-racing game

Horizon enables the handling of Forza on the open roads of a mini Colorados, where the race tracks of the city streets, dusty trails and miles of freeways exist. It is a Forza game with a Touch Need for Speed ​​& "Project Gotham Racing", which revolves around the Horizon Festival.

The times for the background. I am now reached 44% progress, what scares me, because I play only 2 weeks. Forza 4 I play several times a week (for almost a year), there I'm just as far. What I really miss today in Forza 4: the action. I have to satisfy in Horizon. Race against an airplane, hot air balloons against or against a Jet. Geil !! Also convince the remaining races: from the sensational graphics, by the controller and the bombastic sound. Finally, a V8 sounds accordingly.
To control: that is not quite as fine as in Forza 4, but it is more difficult with the new 2013 McLaren over gravel and stone (mid-engine, rear-wheel drive) to heat than with the new Evo. In Horizon meets gameplay (finally) on realism and action.

What I do not like: I'm a pure console gamers. Has the disadvantage that you have to give up a lot of content. Scheunenfund example. the exact card you can bring online only. You brettert by a speed trap, you can learn at your fingertips (online only), if you have broken the speed record of your buddies here. After successfully disputed races, there is also the possibility (online) to load the spirit of a friend and to try to his records. Also showroom and marketplace (2 important factors in the game) and my beloved multiplayer mode comes only through the fee-based online version. Split Screen as in Forza 3 + 4 or at Gotham Racing if a friend comes, unfortunately, not possible. That's too bad ... so there are very turbid 5 star ....

Cars: Is there in Forza 4 several cars of almost all well-known manufacturers is poor in terms of car selection at Horizon. A few more, it could have been.

Kudos: Will I get points for Forza 4 for perfect cornering and I'll slowed when I too abkürze (which to this day I hate), I'll be rewarded at Horizon with Kudos (tribute to Project Gotham Racing) when I skate up by fences and me by Place 3 to 1 mogele (Note: not all fences are by mobile) since each risky overtaking, every drift and every other daring action in the best Project Gotham Racing-style with Kudos, pardon Style points will be rewarded with whom you additional bonuses and special -race unlocks.

Variety is so worried, even though I miss simple settings in the car. Do I need the Ever ?? (Acceleration -> speed, or simply increase the air pressure of the tires more grip to get) is not necessary, at Horizon we Grip without end !!

Once one controls his Koenigsegg or the Ferrari F40 on a dirt road, you will recognize that the system established by developer Playground handling more forgiving than that of Forza 4. The normal traffic can be jostled by a minimal waiver speed aside , It is nevertheless an indisputable authentic Forza game that was plugged into the pretty packaging an arcade racing game.

Endless Roads: The pure function though is not as important as in Forza 4 and the design is personal, but the cars are still absolutely the focus. You can reach in Forza Horizon their absolute peak, because they are finally released to the open roads in an open-world racing game.

Conclusion:

On the race track is for those cars just is not enough space to present themselves to. In the open world of Horizon, however, each racer can explore at any speed on any surface. It suddenly seems totally absurd, that one was ever tied at racetracks.

Horizon brings absolute freedom of a fast car on an open road, a better than any other open-world racer. The closed race tracks of Forza 4 could convey this feeling never.
