[360] Forza Horizon

[jms493]

playing the Rally Pack. It is pretty hardcore. They give you a co driver and it is very similar to DIRT but the cars handle much better. I will tell it it is pretty hard though....I like the challenge.

IMO I would not pay $20 for this pack....I would say this is a $10 pack. I did not play multi player rally...that might help with the cost.

The rally pack is $20?!? Fuck off M$.

While I highly doubt I'll pay $20 for it, I wasn't surprised at all by the price.

I'm in for some Colorado racing tonight.

No respect for safety whatsoever.

I had a lot of fun playing with you jerks last night. I'm also really getting into the single player. But, even though I haven't played it, I still can't see how that DLC is worth $20 no matter how you slice it. I It says it comes with a few new cars and 25 events. That isn't sit for a third of the price of the retail game. As much fun as I'm having with the game I would seriously consider getting the DLC for $10, especially considering I only spent $15 on the game. But $20? Lollerskates!

Plus, Handle reminded me about the "season pass" the offered at launch for $50 fucking dollars. Is the rally pack the only thing they are intending to offer besides a few additional vehicles?

Each car pack that comes out has 10 cars, and they usually put one out every month for like 6 months or so after launch.

Yeah, I almost put cars in a racing game the same category as skins in a fighting game.

And before you lambaste me, I know it's not really the same. But I have never and will ever spend additional money for some cars. I remember people spend g shit loads for cars and like two extra tracks for Forza 2 back in the MM days. Fuck that noise.

I wouldn't expect a non car and non racing enthusiast to be too excited about that kind of stuff. Anyways, I'm not real big on buying extra cars for an arcade racer like this, b/c a lot of them drive the same and they aren't unique like they are in a sim. Now in the Forza Motorsport games, I'll usually drop for at least a few car packs (no track DLC for FM4, which was kind of lame).

I think if you were a Forza fan you would have dropped the money for the Porsche pack when it released for Forza 4. Had a lot of fun with the Team Falken Porsche in the Endurance races Swarley setup in our Forza league.

The only packs I've ever bought for any racing games were for Burnout Paradise and NFS. They came with new cars AND events and I only bought them when they were on sale. I don't care how much I like a racing game, and I like this one a lot, zero chance I will pay for just cars or full price for some tracks.

I'm pretty much addicted to this game. I think I have at least twelve hours of play time, I almost have the purple wrist band and I have $3.5mil. The game looks and sounds amazing. I also love the soundtrack.

I need to buy some cars. Any suggestions?

there is not a real need to purchase cars only a desire too. I bought as much as I could...no need to save up your money. I just didnt buy the ultra expensive cars.

You can get cheap Lambos, Ferraris, or other supercars that are awesome when upgrades.

My personal favorite to drive is the Nissan GTR...although a bit heavier then most supercars. It is AWD therefore very easy to handle.

The Audi R8 is probably another decent car.

Any tips on those PR skill challenges at the outposts? The few I've completed I just seemed to get lucky. What's the best way to rack up quick points? Just passing cars closely and drifting isn't cutting it when you need 20k points in two minutes.
