A superb racing game.
1 May 2014
Forza 5 may not have as many tracks or cars as its predecessor, forza 4, or its competitor, Gran turismo, but Turn 10 has taken a quality over quantity approach that makes this game easily surpass the aforementioned games.

First let's talk about the controller. The controllers impulse triggers let you feel power behind the car. Nothing feels better than when you gun it down a straight stretch and you feel the roar of the engine beneath your finger.

Secondly lets get to the graphics. At 60fps and 1080p Forza 5's graphics are simply superb, there have been incidents where i've mistaken screen-shots for real life.

Next, the mechanics. Forza allows you to variate your experience, from turning on manual clutch operation, to realistic damage, to a wide range of tuning. It also boasts a rewind system.

Lastly, online. Turn 10 has utilized the cloud to create drivatars. Drivatars are a digital version of a player, essentially an A.I. that mimics a person's play style, however you won't see much of this in the lower difficulties. You can do this along with racing beside 4 other friends in intense high speed races. The marketplace also allows you to browse designs that other members of the community have made as well. This really shows how Xbox One is the best console for online gaming.
