    Da mucho asco como te cobran por dlcs cuando sacan tantos forzas. Dejen de explotar la saga, ya estan pensando en un forza 7 y no piensan parar. Un juego mas del monton

    Encore plus chatoyant et plus grand, l'Horizon nouveau pousse le bouchon jusque chez les kangourous et s'impose d'emblée comme l'un des plus beaux jeux de bagnoles en monde ouvert. Il ne souffre d'aucun ralentissement et s'avère étonnamment spectaculaire avec sa météo évolutive, son cycle jour-nuit et... son monde immense !

    Il manque tout de même -en fait- des piétons que l'on pourrait écraser à sa guise, un peu comme dans Carma euh... mais je digresse... On peut déjà rouler n'importe où n'importe comment comme un gros con avec son gros kat'kat ou sa Lambaudi à 200 000 euros et ça, c'est rigolol à ce qu'il paraît.

    Evidemment toujours aussi arcade -rien à voir avec un Motorsport- le jeu se prend facilement en main comme ses aînés et se révèle plutôt distrayant... un certain temps qui devient de plus en plus limité au fur et à mesure que l'ennui progresse à très grande vitesse...

    Le multi-joueurs n'est plus aussi agréable ni efficace que dans le premier Horizon et son audience m'a semblé en net recul, car elle comprend tout à la fois : les super-débilos, les transfuges des GTrons et le public NFS ! le pire des mondes en fait, rassemblé dans une foire lente et lourdingue de kévins et de temps de chargement.

    En outre, Horizon 3 se révèle une abominable usine remplie de remplissage qu'il vous faudra limer jusqu'à l'intox. Ce n'est évidemment pas le modèle physique qui va nous motiver plus que ça puisqu'il reste très ballot, ni le ton toujours autant ciblé "jeunes adulescents" qui va nous pousser à enchaîner comme un crevard toutes ces courses à la mords-moi-le-zob.

    Il faudra donc se restreindre sous peine de vomir de l'horizon qui rend con ou de devenir complètement con soi-même. Courage... fuyons.    … Expand

    So I pre-ordered this game because the trailer made it look amazing.
    Keep in mind I play console games in single-player mode only.
    And I did get impressed by the intro. The game felt a bit like being a part of Fast and the Furious but that went away really fast after the first race. The driving experience is full of action but control wise it feels a bit sluggish , the normal Xbox    So I pre-ordered this game because the trailer made it look amazing.

    The game felt a bit like being a part of Fast and the Furious but that went away really fast after the first race.

    The driving experience is full of action but control wise it feels a bit sluggish , the normal Xbox one feels like its having a hard time with the graphics on occasion dropping the down to what feels like 20 fps at times and that makes it hard to control a fast car through tight corners.
    If you compare the driving experience with Forza 5 or 6 then this is no where near the same good driving experience that Forza 5 or 6 can give you.

    The scenery can be very beautiful so that's a nice thing.

    And in the beginning everything seems sort of clear, I quickly figured out what I could do.
    I kept on making progress up to a point where everything just seemed to be about the same thing over and over and over and over again. (It got really boring after 3-4 hours of game play, I have played this game for a total of 6 hours now)

    Considering the above then the price for this game is just silly.
    So I can not give this game a good review.

    Luckily we have stores that accept games as trade in value for other games so that is what I intend to do now.    … Expand

    Trash. Absolute trash. Seriously disappointed on how bad it is. Long boring roads, generic sounding cars, annoying campaign races, and to top it all off, no canyons. Really? Hard to find a road that you can even consider a hard turn. What a pathetic failure. Don't waste your money on this garbage, and don't even get me started on how the car pass and DLCs work.

Also, how could I forget about those lovely drivatars? The AI is amazing! I guarantee it'll blow your mind! Haha yah right. It's most certainly the worst AI ever to exist in any game. Don't understand why they must base them off "the driving of actual players". Either way, there's about a thousand constantly crashing into you in single player. Yeah you could go to a private online session to get rid of them, but at the same time negate the very purpose of single player. What a joke.… Expand

    Awful driving mechanics, I feel disconnected from the road, the vehicles swish in wide uncontrollable slides, it's neither a simulation or a arcade experience - it feels sloppy. Off roading, which is unavoidable, is worst affected, even in off road vehicles there's very little control, in a road car the experience becomes even more painful.

Off roading, which is unavoidable, is worst affected, even in off road vehicles there's very little control, in a road car the experience becomes even more painful. There's very little difference to Horizon 2 other than a improvement in graphics, the sound track is poor and cheap, having to unlock radio stations is a bad excuse for a 'addition'. The narration and story is childish and unrefined, where's the effort? The map is small in my opinion, this is fine if the world is perfectly detailed but it's not, people say it's beautiful but in truth it's nothing special or groundbreaking, the 'beauty spots' and the accompanied narration is just useless filler. They're riding the success of the prequel on this one, don't waste your money until it becomes a bargain bucket buy. The driving mechanics are inexcusable. The only good point is that the cars look and sound great.… Expand

    Horizon 3 looks good, sounds ok, car roster is big for a horizon game and car models look great but the game is littered with small problems that make it very hard to like.

    AI is horribly unbalanced. I can usually win races on hardest difficulty with no problem. Only exception are cross country events. Some times I have to turn down difficulty to easiest and I still can't win.

    Pr stunts won't always activate so you have to go back and try again. Doesn't seem like a big issue but do this 30 times in a row and you start losing hair.

    Other drivers or "drivatars" are always on your way when you try to set a record on a speedtrap or other PR stunt.

    Handling is set between realism and arcade even with all the assists turned off. This is the recipe for a horrible racing game. It's like trying to mix water and oil, the end result is ****

    Weather effects are cool. Only problem is that its constantly raining. Usually when you try to set a record on pr stunt and you really need the road to be dry. Only solution is to fast travel to festival site and then drive back. This is the only way of passing the time and getting rid of the rain.

    Some speed zone challenges are so hard its not even funny anymore. Driving a 750kg car with over 700kw V8 under the hood and you still can't make it... talking about ridiculous.

    Music is again like in all the horizon games complete and utter ****

    Any dlc that costs money, except big expansions is an automatic -5 from me. Reason to this is insanely high price of games in my country.

    First horizon game is still the best one.    … Expand

    Big , Beautiful, Sounds great and gets the blood pumping. a brilliant racing game that improves on the previous outing. Australia is the perfect setting and is authentically recreated. This year its up to you to manage the Horizon festival and so far its one hell of a ride.

    In short, it is an expensive game, which after several hours becomes repetitive and makes you stop wanting to play it. There are more accessible options that offer similar experiences. Car DLCs are abusive but those are everywhere. It is a game that approves, of course, but that is not the revelation of the decade.

    Firstly I would just like to state that Forza Horizon 3 is in my top two racing games of all time. I dont get into racing games I play mostly first person shoots, third person shooters, character action games, and RPG's. Over my 28 years I have been convinced by many ad's for racing games and almost none of them held my attention for more than say 8 hours of play time.

Over my 28 years I have been convinced by many ad's for racing games and almost none of them held my attention for more than say 8 hours of play time. Could not get into Forza motorsport 6, Project Cars, Project Gotham Racing, Need for Speed most wanted (the newer one), ect ect. I did enjoy The class burnout games, NFS Underground series, Midnight Club, again ect ect. I cant decied if this is IMO the best racing game I have ever played or if its burnout paradise. So why did I then give it 4 you ask? Performance. 30 frames per second is never fun. Never feels smooth makes the controls feel sluggish. If your think of buying this game buy it for the PC platform. I would easily give the PC version a 9 out of 10. The PC version is a butter smooth 60FPS with far better graphics than the console version. Its worth every penny and every second of your time. But only if you are thinking of getting the best version possible thats on PC.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. O jogo assim como os outros tem gráficos bonitos, mas isso é o máximo que eu posso dar de qualidades a partir daqui. A ideia de gerenciar o seu próprio festival é interessante nos primeiros 45 minutos de gameplay, porém depois disso fica bem enjoativo. A questão para mim justamente o final, porque eu fiquei 12 horas nesse jogo, para a exibição final nem ser explicitamente a final, só uma normal e... ESSE JOGO ACABA DA MANEIRA MAIS ANTI-CLIMÁTICA DO MUNDO, EU GASTEI MUITO TEMPO PRA ACABAR DESSE JEITO!

    enfim, não é pior jogo de carros da história, mas entre os Horizon, ele é o pior.    … Expand

    The new Forza Horizon is even more enjoyable than before and its only real fault is that it looks more like a large patch for Forza Horizon 2 than a full-blooded new entry in the series. [12/2016, p.54]
