Let me start off with the fact the game is great looking, plays well, besides giving AI opponents power boost but no increase in actual skill. So it did score well there, but brings the review down is how turn 10 and Microsoft killed the game. To be a VIP in the forza franchise use to mean getting some pretty awesome perks, extra credits, experience and a few exclusive cars, the top off playing the game early, heck yeah. Which usual made the Ultimate edition worth the money as you were always gonna be ahead of the guy who bought the standard edition since you also got the next 6 months of cars for free. But with the recent game added to the franchise, the VIP was a slap to the face as the only perk you actually get is to play the game 4 days early and then find out most of the game won't be available until the game sells more and they finally give up and put what was supposed to be in the game in the first place. I became a forza fan after picking up 4 and loving the absolute crap outta game until my disc finally warped. If you really want this game pick up the standard edition or deluxe. The VIP is $10 wasted. Hope this helps anyone on the verge of buying this game.
And Turn 10 and Microsoft if you see this, I hope you do. Thanks for making me believe going back to Sony is my best option.
