This game is well worth the investment. Turn 10 finally got the controls just right, much better than forza 5 in my opinion. This game also features another option that is a must for me right analog stick gas/brake.
The graphics in the game are truly impressive, some of the best I seen. Excellent car models, the usual customizable options and the in car views are very detailed. The rain and wet tracks are amazing, you car reacts to puddles and the water on the screen looks great.
The online racing works very well (the first turn is a little rough). Online racing is divided up in to classes and makes for some great racing. There is also a league mode and rivials, I have not tried these so can't say much about them. Career mode is extensive although the format is a little strange. If you finish higher than 3rd place you move on to the next race. I personally like the points series format much better. The career is still fun but lacks the feeling that your competing against top drivers throughout a series of races. This is the only reason I didn't give this game a 10. Great game non the less and you won't be disappointed.
