Disappointed with the overall scores so far. It would appear both consoles are still waiting for a killer title after the disappointment of the Killzone reviews and now this. Expected an average of atleast 90% tbh

PraxxtorCruel · 20 Nov 2013 at 16:20

Have all reviews been done or are we to expect more to come later?

It's only averaging around the 80% mark. That's not a score that makes me want to buy an XB1 tbh.

Did you actually read any of the reviews, or is a simple average number as far as you go?

Pigeon_Killer · 20 Nov 2013 at 16:56

Of course I've read reviews and nothing I've read makes me think it's a must have game or a game that's worth spending £400 on a console for.

Are you new to the Forza series? If so I understand perfectly. If you still want a racing game I suggest getting NFS Rivals.

Pigeon_Killer · 20 Nov 2013 at 17:03

Nope, played 2 at a friends and owned 3 which I absolutely loved. I'm just judging it on the fact both consoles have a limited number of titles available so far and I want a reason to buy either console. I'm not saying it's crap or not worth owning but it's not a title that makes me want to buy an XB1.

Jase · 20 Nov 2013 at 17:04

Before I read any reviews I was expected late 80's to 90%. The lack of tracks meant it was never going to score better than that and although that is disappointing as I wanted more tracks, all I wanted was another Forza. Looking at the reviews that's what they delivered. I hope more tracks come as DLC, I'd rather that than more cars tbh but for now I'll just enjoy what's there.

There's talk of an Expansion Pack and word is it will contain tracks. As to what tracks we don't know but the consensus is it will be tracks! This is different from the car pass!

MagicBoy · 20 Nov 2013 at 17:20

More than talk - there's a pass that covers three expansion packs on the marketplace.

No prices yet tho...

Something to do with Smart Glass...it was found there...

Here's a video review of Forza 5 by Adam Sessler if anyone is interested. He seemed to love Forza 5 albeit the loading times for each race.

The more I hear of Drivatar the more excited I become.
