Why I'm Not Excited for Forza Motorsport 6

Soon as he said he owned a cat, paused... and I was done

i just want a fully awesome rally game.

I feel bored with racing games. I would like to play a racing game where one cannot win driving bumper car style, where crashs really affect performance and even eliminate one from the race, like real races. It would be much more challenging.

i cannot wait for forza 6. only racing sim series worth owning. project cars does look nice and will play hopefully something to challenge forza, it maybe the thing they need for them to really push the game again

Also, great video.

Wonderful video... Well said sir! :)

FH2 was amazing. Good video, agree with all comments made.

I agree, although at the moment I'm most excited for Project CARS. Hope it delivers...

Forza H 2 was really a terrific game, too bad it got overlooked from even being nominated from nearly all the places with 2014 GOTY awards(like here). Maybe sports/racing titles get the snub usually for some reason? A bit too soon for Forza 6 if it's this year, 2016 would be best.

That is why these both games FH and FM cater to different audiences.

I am more into serious racing than arcade/offroad/luck races.

I kinda agree? I mean I can only use GTA V as an example but some of those 'open' races across fields and such was sooo much fun and ANYTHING 30 man and confined was a hoot for the sheer chaos point of view!

Horizon 2 is a letdown for me, as is Forza 5. Too much pop up in Horizon with cars popping up out of nowhere. And adding the option of mechanical damage is a bit silly if many races allow you to go offroad and use supercars off road. You have to turn off damage if you are racing one on one against drivatars who just cut across every field. Some ideas were just not fleshed out well. Its still the best console racer this gen but overall an 8. Could be much better. Forza 5 is a letdown from the brilliance of 4. It just looks prettier.

Honestly whats exciting about Forza 6 is that the Forza 5 complete all cars edition will eventually be in the bargain bin.

For those of you complaining about the heading of this video..I'm guessing you didn't watch.

He blasted Driveclub and mostly every other racing game outside of Forza Horizon 2...all he was saying is that he loves the experience Horizon 2 offers, and feels like he may be disappointed when he is restricted to a course again.

He mentioned that Forza Motorsport 6 will have to work extremely hard to impress him this time around, simply because of how much fun he has had with Horizon 2 and given the fact that there are a few racing sims launching in the near future, that may give FH6 some decent competition.

Now personally, I can't say I disagree with him, because I feel that FH2 has earned its rightful place right next to the FM franchise. Both of these games have their respected place in the racing world...in the meantime...I'll be looking forward to a Gran Turismo game (or any racing game that raises the bar) that can give me at least half of the entertainment that I have received from the Forza games.

I agree. Forza Horizon 2 was easily the best game across all platforms last year. I can't believe it didn't win GoTY. I've never been a huge Forza fan, but I'm excited to see them push the envelope and create a beautiful looking game

Because "Gamespot" is a biased site right now. If it was about PS4's mediocre games, like Driveclub, it would be different...

Do I care that Forza 6 does not excite you? Not One Bit. Such a useless and senseless video if ever there was ... you have the privilege of playing those simple-minded arcade racers but really no one cares about the dilemma you are struggling with lol.

Meh

i totally am in the same boat, i even bought an xbone two weeks after driveclub came out and felt like a huge letdown... then i started playing fh2, the first iteration of which i never played since i am a "sony pony", and was ecstatic to find out that the game was everything i hoped it to be... well, after that i have searched who playground games was and was again shocked that they consisted of former criterion (burnout paradise was one of my favourite driving games) and codemasters (collin mcrae and dirt series are again among my fovourite games) employees (along with other developers)...
i couldn't care less about the next forza, but if you are talking about the new fh, that is another issue and it is too early for that, i just wish that fh 2 gets new dlcs... :)

Horizon 2 feels "arcady" because it is an arcade racer. You can spin it into whatever fantasy road trip you want and it can be as realistic as you want but in an open world it will always be an arcade racer. Comparing any arcade racer to a full simulator is pointless. Like I said Forza 2 might have aspects of car tweaking and upgrading but Forza 6 will be everything the absolute cutting edge simulation fans could ever want and need because Horizon is still an arcade racer.

People like the precision driving of tracks, they like powering down straights and breaking and turning properly hitting the apex, without having fences and pedestrian cars littering the place.

In reverse those things are why people play arcade games, to have a less serious blast across the map on roads that have traffic on them.

Two very different games for different types of racing fans and this is nothing new. The fact this requires an opinion article is confusing me a little.

grid was a fantastic game. Something is lacking in the now current gen games, i dont seem to get the thrills i used too.

Because it's too soon and the concept is completely boring.
