Racing games are a dime a dozen now-a-days; they always have been really. There are two distinctly different styles of genres though and you probably prefer one more than the other. Arcade racing titles offer mindless racing fun without all of the

Forza's Career mode starts slower, but is much deeper and more satisfying in the long run. Each mode offers many types of races, including standard point to point and lap modes. There are dozens of courses ranging from urban street racing to racetracks,

Forza Motorsport is the pinnacle of Xbox racing games, no…strike that comment from the record and let me start again. Forza Motorsport is the pinnacle of racing games period. This review is going to be full of GT4 comparisons and rightly so. The Gran

All you need to know is that if it was a poker hand, Forza would be a royal flush. If a football score, it would be a 7-0 win. As a game, it is the finest straight-up racing game to grace any home console system and as such, is an absolute must buy.

Microsoft Game Studios is perhaps best known for Halo, but I think they instead deserve to be recognized as the world's best publisher and developer of racing games. It's a bold declaration, but with an impressive roster consisting of Project Gotham

If the competition is Gran Turismo, there's no contest here. The complete integration of online play, full vehicle customization, better racing AI, and many other features raise Forza above the pack.

First the unavoidable comparisons; one thing you can tell straightaway is that it doesn’t look quite as good as GT4, which is a little disappointing for an Xbox game, where they usually excel over PS2 graphics. Despite being drawn with considerably

When it comes to graphics, Forza really pushes the Xbox’s hardware. The game just looks great; there’s no better way to say it. Cars are immaculately modeled, as are the game’s environments. Real-time lighting and shadow effects really give the

Virtually every console has their own killer racer, Nintendo offered the manic multiplayer addiction that was Mario Kart, Sega offered the instantly playable Sega Rally series and then there is Sony - who unwittingly re-invented the racing genre with its

It took a while, but Gran Turismo may have finally been shaken from its high horse. And it has taken long enough. GT has been virtually unopposed until now, except for a slight attempt by Konami with Enthusia and, predating that, a generally average -

While it doesn’t re-invent the wheel, Forza Motorsport pretty much perfects it. Its user-friendly options make it great for casual drivers and its generous reward system honors the skill of the experienced racer.

Forza's handling is impeccable. Many car sims have done an adequate job of providing an impression of the forces exerted on a car as it hurtles around a track, but in Forza it's as though you can feel the exact point where your tires lose traction.

Generally, writing a review for a game that you are totally loving is pretty easy. But for whatever reason, approaching the review for Forza Motorsport by Microsoft Game Studios is proving to be quite a challenge. I can't figure out whether I really do

Ultimately, I found the Drivatar about as gimmicky as the B-spec mode in Gran Turismo. Sure, it’s a novelty and something new to the genre, but it just never seemed worth it to me. The purpose of the Drivatar is to save you time by racing in races you
