Speaking of "icy". The Challenger SRT8. Sweet ride, slippery as snot on a door knob.

I have no idea why people are getting so upset over this game. If Turn 10 is still going to release a Forza 5, then what's the big deal? They release this game for the rest of everyone else who doesn't want a pure racing simulator, while Forza 5 will surely cater to the smaller, more dedicated racing enthusiasts.

I'm a huge fanboy of Forza, and I'm just plain enjoying the heck out of this game. If you find it absolutely disgusting, continue on with Forza 4 until 5 comes out.

It's a breath of fresh air, and this combined with Forza 4 will keep me busy until Forza 5.

Ya, I'm pretty sure this is just a spin off as well. I'm a huge fan of the Forzas, and I find this game to be a bit more relaxed and open to casual racers, which is a good thing.

Wondering whether tokens bought with my gamertag will be shared with others on the same console? If anyone knows kindly help a brother out :)

I believe the tokens are linked to your gamertag so you can't share them with other gamertags on the same console.

I just cant get into NFS games. The AI has rubberband effects which absolutely sucks! I hope Forza horizon doesnt have rubberband AI

There is no rubberbanding in Forza Horizon. Rest assured, that lead you built up through superior racing ability will stay yours as long as you don't screw it up.

I also took advantage of the buy 2 get one free 1 deal at Target and got both games. Forza Horizon is superior to NFS: Most Wanted. If you're a casual racer, I would still pick up Horizon over Most Wanted. The controls for Most Wanted could be described as terrible; go check out the Most Wanted forums.

I actually played The Run much more than this game, but I never finished it. That one race where you have to race the guys in the El Caminos (if I remember correctly) on the snowy map sealed the deal on me never finishing.

So you imply The Run is worse than this game, yet this response makes it obvious you've not even played it. :roll:

The only thing really bad about The Run is they never fixed the control bindings resetting to the defaults and the now and then CtDs. Other than that it's just an overly short game. The gameplay it has though is far better than that of this game.

The race he's talking about in the Rockies against the guys in El Caminos is not as hard as he makes it sound either, even with keyboard. I beat the game on Extreme with keyboard and at 54, I don't exactly have teenager reflexes anymore.

The hardest races in the game on Extreme are the checkpoint races at Buffalo Gap and Sawmill Drive in The Plains and State Forest stages of the race. You really have to minimize your mistakes on those.

NFS The Run's campaign is exhilerating and challenging, but you can start getting a lot of CtDs on th emab segments, and having to restart because of it can get annoying.

It has some good addon challenges, but even with those you won't get much more than 3-4 hrs max out of the entire sp content. It kinda added insult to injury that with a game having such short content they didn't even put time and money into fixing the damn control resetting and CtD problem. Kinda typical of EA, but it's extra upsetting when you know they couldn't have put nearly as much time to begin with into a game with a mere 2 hr campaign.

It wasn't so much that it was difficult, just dumb. If I remember correctly their cars were superior to your own in every way. The only way to beat them was to draft one of them then slingshot past at the end of the race. If you messed up or something got in your way (there was an avalanche taking place, afterall) you had to restart the entire race.

Ya, I'm not sure bud. I recently went through another no kill/alert playthrough and made it safely to the end with no hiccups. Maybe it's your disk or your PS3?
