    Incredible gameplay, twinned with a brilliant soundtrack and beautiful visuals make Forza Horizon 2 the best racer of the year. Quite possibly the best that the Xbox One has to offer.

    Amazing visuals, gameplay, racing dynamics, graphics, music.
    This game gets a 10 with its astonishing gameplay features and style. It allows any user to come and race they way they want to. If you like arcade style, keep those assists on and you're golden. If you more into realistic racers, give yourself a challenge and turn all assists off and you'll see how this game isn't as "arcady"

    The music is just captivating! Forza Horizon 2 brings a complete package to fun in a racing game. If you're a Forza Horizon lover, racer, or even if you like the Forza franchise, you won't be disappointed with this game!

    First thing to say is that it looks fantastic. The car and backgrounds are amazing.

    Game play wise also excellent - if you want a session of serious racing you can do it - if you don't want o concentrate too hard then you can simply drive around the open world. If you want to go on the rampage and break stuff it there. If you want to take a Land Rover Defender and turn 90 degrees off

Want to take a classic for a gentle spin around the French countryside? hop in.

    Boy racer - ok, let's design the paintwork and decals on your car. Red wheel sir? yes please.

    There no micro purchases like Forza 5 Motorsport. It's as difficult and challenging as you want it to be.

    When I sit down in from to f the console and can't decide what to play - do I really want the intensity and concentration needed to play BF4? Not today - ok let's fire up FH2.

    A simply fantastic game.

    One of those games that just makes you smile when you play. Fun, fun, fun. I am generally not into racing games of any type, simulations or arcade style. However, this game is an exception. It is just a fun and enjoyable game with beautiful graphics. FH2 is a well balanced racing game.

    A very deep, fun, and engrossing racing game. It's not the hardcore simulation experience the normal Forza games provide but it's a nice change of pace after Forza 5. Horizon 2 is a true next gen racer and I've been in love with it since launch. There's an easy 100+ hours of content here, so if you're looking for a racer that will last a long time go pick up Horizon.

Fantastic graphically, good sound design, great driving mechanics, and so much to do within the game that it keeps you hooked. The sky, the lighting , the perfectly modelled graphical effects used on cars overshadow the lack of visual flourish seen in more rushed and unready racers such as the 2014 flop driveclub. Also, in comparison, the multiplayer works perfectly and is integrated well into the game experience giving the community feel.
    Decals and car design make a welcome return for those familiar with the Forza series allowing you to customise your car into a truly unique vehicle. All in all a fantastic addition to the Forza stable, a must own for all open world racing gamers.

    This game is pure, unadultered fun. It doesn't hurt, either, that it's one of the best looking games to come out for either the XB1 or PS4 thus far this generation (Yes, the XB1 is capable of some ridiculous graphics, internet trolls).

    The sense of speed is awesome. The sense of exploration is awesome. The attention to detail everywhere in the world is immensely impressive: From grass, to trees, to the buildings in the cities, to the way the light reflects off of wet surfaces, to the small water droplets that collect (and evaporate) on the cars, to the way the light accurately creates the correct color in the sky based on where the sun is present (Reyleigh scattering), to accurate rainbows based on rain/sunlight (what???!), to the accurately mapped star constellations in the sky at night...this game is insanely packed with details. The cars are very detailed, and even the crowds aren't static/boring.

    Photomode and replay mode are awesome for playing back the game's fun highlights, and you can really get a sense for this detail this way.

    I recommend anyone who is skeptical of this game to download the demo and play it for 20 minutes. If you don't come away with a big smile on your face, then you really don't know when fun hits you. And if you don't own an XB1, just download some of the gamersyde footage.

    In short: the game is fun and beautiful. If you own an XB1, it is not worth missing out.

    Ignore any reviews giving this game a 0, they are trolling and trying to get the overall score dragged down.

    Forza Horizon 2 is a stunning piece of work. Graphics, gameplay, sound....everything has been so well crafted by Playground Games that you may feel the urge to find their HQ, go there and hug them all! :)

    This is the first, truly next gen title.

    This game is awesome. If you're a fan of the first Forza Horizon game or just open world racers in general than this is good title to add to your collection.

    PROS
    1. Graphics are top notch, greatly improved over the first game.
    2. The atmosphere feels more alive than the first game with the addition of weather effects, which look stunning, and more lively crowds that are actually walking around towns this time (in the first game they were only found at horizon event areas), albeit behind indestructible barricades so that you can't hit them.
    3. Good selection of cars to chose from. I think it's something like 200+ not including dlc.
    4. Custom paint job creator. Create your own or download someone else's, some people have come up with some amazing paint jobs.
    5. There is a lot to do. There are 168 championships and each championship has 4 races to complete plus 30 bucket list challenges(drive a specific vehicle in the game to achieve a specific goal such as meet a target speed limit at a specific speed trap), 10 barnyard finds(search for a rare old vehicle), 5 showcase events(race against a unique vehicle, a train for example), and bonus signs to find and smash(these offer xp bonuses and fast travel discounts). You also have the ability to challenge any roaming NPC/drivatar you find to a race which will be randomly generated by the game.
    6. The map is a very good size and the roads are not as enclosed as the first game, meaning you can go off road and explore the environment.
    7. The soundtrack is excellent and has more variety than the first game.
    8. No dumb intrusive story, just racing.
    9. Diving mechanics are solid and fun. Anyone familiar with the first horizon game will find driving in this game much the same.
    10. More rewarding then the first game. Every time you level up you get to either spin a wheel for a random prize(credits or cars) or you earn a skill point to spend on perks. Unlocking perks will help you earn credits and xp faster.

    CONS
    1. Drivatars can be very annoying/aggravating to deal with. I can understand bumping and blocking me in a race but it's annoying when it happens in free roam.
    2. This is just my opinion but I cannot stand the purely off road races, they frequently cross the lime from fun into frustration. I can deal with the fact you can't control your vehicle as much but I hate not being able to see where you are going and dirvatars being a bit too perfect on the off road courses. Plus there is the fact that a drivatar can miss a checkpoint and not have to turn around to go hit it but if you miss a checkpoint your pretty much f*****, better restart the race at that point because there is no way you are getting the lead back.

    So that's it, everything about this game is mostly good. I'm very satisfied with my purchase.

    Easily the best driving experience i have ever played. Been deeply into racing games since GT2 and nothing have ever impressed me like Horizon 2 has. Offline/Solo play is very fun, and doesn't feel like the same old grind of ever other racing game, on the same tracks ever racing game uses. This game is fresh and new. And if you're into online play, there's nothing like it. Amazing game.

    Leveling up in horizon is fun every time you level up you spin a wheel for the chance to win credits or cars and this makes you want to level up much faster just to see what prize you're going to win next.

    Horizon 2 is a highly enjoyable and gorgeous racing game one of the best racing games I have ever played. If you love racing games and own an Xbox one then horizon 2 is for you.

    This really is, at the time of writing, the pinnacle of open world racing. Forza games have always been great (for me anyway) - they have been that right mix of simulation detail and arcade racing depending on what you want. Forza is simply one of the most accessible games you could hope to buy - catering for any type of player.

    Horizon 2 is no different, yes the story is naff and yes

Forza is simply one of the most accessible games you could hope to buy - catering for any type of player.

    Horizon 2 is no different, yes the story is naff and yes the character are cliche - but the open world is beautiful and varied, and all of the different cars are so so very good. There is deeper car customisation and tweaking this time around which is very much appreciated, and the level of detail is turned up a notch. There are some seriously beautiful moments when it starts to rain and the sun is shining at the right time on your car.

    Personally I love the music - though it will not be to everyones taste. And the myriad of open world activities are great, but not in your face if you just want to drive around like a maniac.

    I truly cannot think of much, if anything, bad to say about Horizon 2 - it is my favourite racing game on new gen consoles....

    If you loved horizon 1 - you will love horizon 2, if you are a casual driving game enthusiast then you will love horizon 2.... if you're looking for a hard core sim then perhaps this is not for you. But currently as it stands, there is no better open world racer on the market and I cannot begin recommend this any more than I already have.

    The best arcade racer on the Xbox One, with enjoyable gameplay, nice radio stations and colorful graphics. It's a lot of fun to find shortcuts in the vs races and time trials and the off-road races are unlike anything in other racing games. The only minuses are that the visuals aren't as stunning and next-gen as in DriveClub and also the career mode was over too quickly.

Of course you got the Car Pass which will add additional Cars to the Roster and also we hope for more updates like turn 10 have done with Forza 5. The graphics are top notch (although there is the odd pop in from time to time). The Gameplay is Fantastic, it feels as though the Drivatars which debut on Forza 5 seem a lot more nailed on. The even cooler addition with the Drivatars is with regards to the open world, you can follow the Cars in the open world and they drive anywhere, meaning if your struggling to find a hidden barn find or any xp or discount boards you may have a chance of finding some which I think is a pretty neat feature. The Single player Mode is Fun to start but I felt it was getting pretty repetitive after doing about 10 road trips so I would say to change car every trip just to keep it fresh. As usual you do certain amount of circuit races, point - to - Point and also some cross country which takes full advantage of the open world places of the map. you aim to win 15 championships in order to proceed to the final Horizon in order to become Horizon Champion.

    Single player pretty much covered, now for the multiplayer

    Multiplayer also allow you to compete in road trips across the Horizon Festival with up to 11 other online players. this also adds extra playing time for the game, you can also compete in Infected and King which make a return from the first horizon. you can also just casually free roam across the map with your friends and do new bucket list challenges with a friend (These are also in single player which also adds additional challenge and playtime to the game). Again, online road trips can get repetitive so again I would use a different car to keep it fresh.

    If you are a car fan and loved the first one this game is for you. this will keep you going for months on end.
    I fully recommend this game to ALL racing fans, Playground games have nailed it on this one.....

    Absolutely the best racing game I have ever played. The open world keeps the game fresh, especially when playing online.

Meeting up with other players/cars, drag races, or races in general, co-op challenges, cruising on and/or off road, fooling around (mindless smashing into each other, crazy jumps and accidents) never gets boring. There are tons of events and unique races, with several amazing modes and features to play on or offline.

    With an open world map and dynamic weather, the on and/or off road races keep the game challenging as opposed to other racing games that only have several tracks where it is easier to anticipate every aspect of the race (bumps, turns, dips, etc). With an open map, and wide checkpoints, every racer will have their own racing style that completely changes the games outcome. And of course there are Point A to Point B races, where you take any route you want. It's nice to choose your own path in life, and in games!! :D I'm really impressed how this game turned out overall.

    I believe Driveclub looks better than Forza Horizon 2, but I'm more interested in gameplay, unique and valuable content, features and replay value. Forza Horizon 2 does that while exceeding your expectations. It is the best value for your money, and the greatest racing game on the market right now. You can't go wrong with this one.

    Forza turns down the hardcore realism and drifts into open world arcade style racing. The most deceiving thing about this game is that is has the name 'Forza' on it, which most associate with the Gran Turismo style tuning and realism, not that it's a bad thing.

Again, this is an arcade style game so it's the type where you hit a wall going full speed and you just bounce off, and it's nice to see a game like this outside of the bored 'Need for Speed' world. This really does feel like a fresh version of the open world 'Need for Speed' games with visuals that will have your parents thinking they are watching a real race. In short, wouldn't recommend this game for the tuners looking for realism, but more the people that went to the local arcade to enjoy games like 'Cruisn USA'. Expand

    For me it was such a good game that I can overlook some things like sometimes cars becoming unstable when turning, or always burning out when the race begins, even not being able to take your car for a spin before making up your mind and buying it.

    I can only think of 2 downsides. Firstly, the skill points you earn don't grant you anything of real value. Secondly, car customization could be greatly improved.

    PS4 fanboys must be so jealous. I own a PS4 myself and the best cars game right now is The Crew, and boy, what a mediocre game.

    The game has 700+ races in single player, from racing offroad against other drivers to racing a train,and loads more races should you play online.

    Gameplay wise,Horizon 2 is the best game of the year.The handling is a bit more arcadey than Forza Motorsport,which this is a spin-off of,,but not to Need For Speed levels of arcardey.But the handling is amazing and is easy enough to pick up and play.

    Overall,Forza Horizon 2 is the best Forza title ever,the best racing game from 2011-2014,and the best game of 2014 in general.Go out and buy this immediately,you need to play Horizon 2 by any means necessary.

Not to mention the graphics of the game, wow is all I can say. Full 1080p, high-res textures and stellar lighting, particularly at night, it is simply pure eye-candy, and the music and the driving just add to the sugar rush! Seriously, if you have an Xbox One, and you're looking for the essential racer, look no further!

    If you like drag racing you in for a bit of a dissapointment, now don't get me wrong, they put everything in this game you need to drag, and a nice place to do it at as well, HOWEVER drag racing is kind of ruined by one single car, the alfa romeo 33 stradale. There is no other car in the game that can even come close to the speed and just raw acceleration of that car, which kind of makes drag racing boring because everyone just pretty much races those cars. BUT if you find a good group of people to drift with it can be a whole lot of fun.

    I think the only other complaints I have are that it seems to rain way too often, and the xbox 360 version they released was just a complete rip off, not cool. But the map is great, theres sooooo many cars, they even released a porshe pack that wont completely destroy your wallet like the last one.

    If your looking for a driving game, THIS is the only one worth getting (until forza 6 comes out at least)

    The game takes place after 2012's Forza Horizon and yes this is a direct sequel to Forza Horizon. The game features a wonderful array of cars, from jeep wranglers to Lamborghinis there is no shortage of fun here. The events are just like Forza Motorsport 5. They are arranged in Championships. Basically choose a car category and you are done. Select the car category, buy or choose a car you currently own and just race. During when the championships are over and you have the option to choose another championship and you pick it you are given a mini task to drive to a certain area on the map in a limited amount of time. But only if you want a small but satisfying cash reward. You can always rejoin the same championship and still possible beat the game with only one car.

    The map is also so huge. The time spent to get from one side of the map to the other side horizontally is almost 15 minutes. You'll also find fun car challenges that you can race in. They are called Bucket List challenges. All you have to do is follow the simple instructions on the car challenge bio and just hop in and drive. But you can only use them for the event. They also feel like test drives. In case you haven't got Pagani Huyura you've always wanted, try it out, you love it, like it, or hate it when it comes to its driving. Next we will talk/type about the special events. These are given out at a random time but you have a high possibility of earning a free car which is very nice. You can either face against train, airplanes, and hot air balloons. They are spectacular and don't get too boring. Rain and fog is now implemented into the game and they are both meant to enhance the simulation a bit more.

    The game also features a leveling up system. When you level up you get a chance at winning a free car or rewards ranging from 2,500 credits to over 100,000 credits. Its a really nice touch. You don't just get a free risk taker thing, but you also get a perk point. You can understand how this will go if you've every played an rpg. The game runs at an unbreakable 30 Frames Per Second at 1080p. Amazing how the frame rate never drops not even once. And did I say how good the game looks. HOLY F***ING S*** it gave me a boner. The game almost looks photo realistic. Bye Bye.

    Super stars do not return. Illegal races do not return outside the festival. It only has five special events. The scenarios of forest, vineyards and forest with vineyards, castles, ruins and plantations are repeated a lot and it may seem like a "rural" Forza (plus a more modern coastal strip)

    The Meh!:
    Although this is a version called the same for Xbox 360, the Xbox One version is much superior with different events, cars and features. And by the way many talkers that Playground Games has created works of art, there is also the logo of Turn 10 in the box

    Forza Horizon para mim sempre foi sinônimo de qualidade no que tange jogos de corrida, ter uma direção arcade competente, mundo aberto variado a cada novo título e uma seleção cada vez mais detalhada, realista e atualizada de carros em cada novo título sempre me fascinou, pode-se dizer que o modo história não muda muito, você sempre precisa ser o mais influente no campeonato Horizon, nuncaForza Horizon para mim sempre foi sinônimo de qualidade no que tange jogos de corrida, ter uma direção arcade competente, mundo aberto variado a cada novo título e uma seleção cada vez mais detalhada, realista e atualizada de carros em cada novo título sempre me fascinou, pode-se dizer que o modo história não muda muito, você sempre precisa ser o mais influente no campeonato Horizon, nunca altera de objetivo, mas sim a perspectiva por trás disso, o jogo vem mudando a sua posição diante do evento e isso é algo extremamente bacana, além do modo história o jogo apresenta conteúdos secundários fenomenais, indo de coletáveis a carros escondidos e de carros escondidos a listas de metas, que basicamente são missões secundárias para você completar, vale a pena citar que o 100% deste jogo é extremamente demorado, e pode-se considerar enjoativo, mas definitivamente, com o padrão de qualidade FORZA não dá para enjoar.

    Спасибо за игру. С это части началось легендарной шествие FH по всему миру. Я стал преданным фанатом форзы после этой части.

    Não vejo necessidade em escrever um longo texto analisando uma arte, a nota é apenas um conselho para saber o quanto ela vale para sua vida.

    I see no need to write a long text analyzing an art, the note is just a piece of advice to know how much it is worth in your life.

    It's great that more additions are being released to expand the number of races.
    The only downside is that at some point the game becomes very monotonous

    Não é tão bom quanto o seu antecessor pela falta de história, porém, o mundo aberto e a possibilidade de explorar os caminhos mais fora do mapa foram ótimas adições, o jogo em si é muito bom, mas o FH1 é melhor

    Increible; un mundo precioso y grande, un montón de coches, punto perfecto entre simulación y arcade, cientos de horas de juego con online decente, el volante va perfecto ...
    El modo historia demasiado estirado ....

    Another great outing in the Horizon series with a really awesome soundtrack. I usually play my own music when playing racing games but for this one it was not needed. I actually added music from the soundtrack to my actual playlist.

    After playing the first horizon I had to try this one out. Really different feel as it’s on a new console other than the 360 but loved the races. Some were difficult and I ignored most of the bucket lists and barn finds.

    With a huge map, hundreds of cars, and countless racetrack possibilities, Forza Horizon 2 is a stellar open world racing game.

    This game convinced me to buy Xbox One and for me FH2 is the only racing game that should be taken into account this year. [Dec 2014, p.54]
