    The most disappointing thing about Forza Horizon 2 is how little it’s improved since the first Horizon. There is still no meaningful career progression or economy. The career is quite literally running a circle around six chunks of Europe, over and over and over again, in the pursuit of colored bracelets with, as far as I can tell, no significance. Canned bucket list challenges and barn scavenger hunts supposedly break up the action if you feel like heading off in that direction.

Because this game is brilliant and absolutely fun unless you can't play it because you have a different console or don't like playing non-hardcore racing open-world driving games, bought this game, and was dissapointed to find it is open world and that its not so focused on hardcore racing.

    For me this is the best racing game I've ever played because it is a game that allows me to do so many things I want to do with cars which I can't do in real life. Everything but race on the Nurburgring, but I can simply do that on Forza Motorsport so I'm happy.
