When my friends bought this game I felt obliged to follow suit (to join them in multiplayer), and to be honest I feel a tad let down. Yes, the graphics are great (mostly - more in a minute). Yes, there's a good 'feel' to the cars when driving, and yes there are more cars available than you'll ever dream of owning, but there are downsides too (when compared to previous versions). For starters, I really object to being excluded from the numerous additional car-packs unless I spend an fortune (as if the game isn’t pricey enough). Compare with the years of free upgrades provided for Grand Theft Auto, for instance! Secondly, the very simple feature of showing the distance/time to the car in front/ behind in your HUD appears to have vanished, and that can be important. Thirdly, there's a very odd sideways motion with one of the graphics shaders giving a very strange (and stomach churning) sensation when you're concentrating. In addition, at some tracks the surface is simply so dark it's virtually impossible to see where you're going! The lighting effects are beautiful, but it’s a step too far. Fourth, there are still 'glitches' in the software. There's one achievement that should have unlocked for me days ago, but I'm still showing at 0% progress ("Unrivalled", which I gather a lot of other Xbox users are complaining about). And lastly, they still haven't adequately addressed the problem of little kids acting like idiots in multiplayer and ruining everyone else's games. I've so far found one 'ghost' mode event, but at the rest it’s simply carnage. Actually, I do have one final gripe! I've been playing this series for years and (if I say so myself) I'm actually pretty good. However, even with my cars upgraded to the limit in Forza 7 I just see the other competitors driving away into the distance! I therefore deduce that a) there are a lot of people using cheats, or b) there's way too much emphasis that’s been placed on tuning (I'm a driver not a mechanic, who I'd be paying to sort the car out for me)! So there we are - a basically good game let down by some irritating niggles. I think they're trying too desperately hard (change for the sake of change) and flogging a dying horse. Stick with Forza 5 - things haven't changed that much. : / PS Ebay, simple yes/no responses are not adequate. Five star ratings are also required required for graphics, gameplay & value!Read full review
