I've played F2, F3, and now F5 and F5 definitely feels like a stripped version of F3. Half the cars, the most iconic ones are day one DLC, there's barely any tracks (and 2 of them crash for me), and the free run mode is very limited. Cars are also VERY expensive once you get above A class. I could drive almost any car I could imagine on F3, now I can't even find a Chevy Cobalt or a Firebird. Definitely the last Forza game I'll be buying if things don't change. I'm sure it was rushed which explains the lack of content, but there are many more poor decisions that will keep me from buying another one. It plays awesome, but there's too many downsides to make me pay $60 again. Sadly, if racing games continue to try to force DLC and microtransactions, I won't buy a single one from now on.

It also shuts haters up about the 1080p issue.

The one thing I hope F6 has is realistic damage. I don't want paint scrapes or bend fenders, I want pieces snapping off left and right that affect aerodynamics realistically. With the power of the new consoles, I'd be very happy to see something like that added. Either way I'm glad this got a good review and I'm happy for the studio, they seem to pump out these games at the right time and always add new things to keep it fresh and new. Adding humor is also going to be a fun addition. Making sequels and adding in new jokes and the such can separate games from its predecessors.

I love comments like this. Just appreciation and love for gaming and the people that make them. The industry needs more positivity from fans like this.

If the reviews stay positive on the X1, I doubt the price will come down. You might be able to find a sale but I'm not so sure. The 360 slim didn't come out for about 3-4 years after the 360 initially launched.

@nine-eight-nine @steve_esquire Yeah, it definitely depends if other news companies like it as much as CNN did lol I guess we'll see. It'll be a very interesting launch though!

@Jdzspace @DRAEZ68 Important comment. "Gamers are a dying breed." While I do think that gaming is still on the rise in pop culture, I think your statement still is true in a sense. I could be wrong, but I think gamers are a dying breed on consoles. PC's are really coming up from Steam, and the PS4 making its main selling point graphics and power is risky, since PCs are already more powerful then it. Making your console focus on other things is simply good business. If you cant beat the competition, either join them or change what you're doing. We'll see in a few years if this pays off for MS, because the majority of people buying a PS4 will buy it early, while casuals and soft core gamers that the Xbone is selling to will most likely wait a few years. So sales will be strong for the PS4 for now, but can the Xbone catch up?

@nine-eight-nine @steve_esquire Which is why this could be dangerous to Sony. If older men and women see this while watching the news, it could bring some more sales in to MS. Heck if I was a parent that didn't know much about gaming, I'd definitely check it out after reading that. Even though it's not a gaming site, its very important, because many gamers already got a PS4, while the people that'll probably get the Xbone wont looking at gaming sites, they'll be looking at websites like CNN, FOX, etc.
