Makes sense. With revenue dropping they can't wait anymore they need to get the games out there. Xbox's game plan seems to be to flood the market with games and bring in as much money as they can.

They can do too much too soon, but fortunately for them their games aren't likely to directly compete with each other.

Flight Simulator 2024
Gears of War
Halo MCC
Forza Horizon 5

All pretty different games.

I wonder for Flight Simulator if they'll add VR support or not.

 

[Yoboman]

Is this where we beg for discounts and cry about Xbox sign in requirements? Just checking the process with PC bros

 

[Ar¢tos]

Aloy DLC when

I would play a FH where you can run over Aloy...

 

[Humdinger]

The significant thing about this, to me, is that Forza is the first of the Xbox traditional cornerstone franchises (Halo/Forza/Gears/Fable) to get ported to PS5.

 

[SweetTooth]

Microsoft finally waiving the white flag.

You lost Xbros! Kneel for you new overlords.

"RIP Xbox"

Damn fellas, we can't stop winning today. I take the morning off and look what we did. I hop on and we are 5 pages deep on everybody's ass this morning. Shit. RIV?

Is this game a driving simulator or an arcade racing game? I'm more into arcade racers.

Everybody new it, it's just a reality check for the few remaining Xbox fanboys. I think day1 games for PS are the next step.

 

[Humdinger]

Yeah boi. This and Fable were my main two wants on PS. Holding out for the latter…

I think Fable is a pretty sure bet. With its budget, they can't afford to just release it on Xbox, where most people will just play it on GP and sales will be scant. They will need the PS audience to have any hope of turning a profit.

Arcade by far

This is the arcade-y one I think, Motorsport is the other one.

 

[Windle Poons]

Won't double dip on this but its a great game.

it's a so called Simcade racer.

it has some sim aspects, but is more about arcade style gameplay.
the driving model tries to be semi realistic, while everything around it doesn't basically

Somewhere in-between. There are arcade elements, but the physics are based on a realistic model. Just more forgiving than regular Forza.

 

[BigLee74]

3 and 4 were both better, but if you haven’t played any of them already then 5 will be great!

 

[SEGAvangelist]

I wonder how much it'll cost.

 

[Parazels]

Now I wonder, if they can port Forza Motorsport with RT on PS5.

 

[ShaiKhulud1989]

Xbox can keep this one, thanks.

 

[Windle Poons]

I'm going minimum £60.

 

[Synastry]

I played it for 7 days when I had my SX for 7 days back in Dec 2022 and now I get another chance to play it again but on my PS5 pro.

Nice as someone with over 5000K hours in GT7 but tried of that games outdated car list FH5 is gonna be a breath of fresh air.

 

[SkylineRKR]

It plays out exactly as many had expected. Gradually the bigger guns get released. With Forza Horizon 5 coming over, the floodgate is open. This is one of their 3 premier exclusives next to Gears and Halo.

 

[Hero of Spielberg]

While Sony is canceling games for PS Microsoft is releasing them. We are getting Indy in the spring too IIRC.

Strange world.

I want to see Sony money hat some Xbox studios games just to really mess with people’s heads

 

[Humdinger]

Yes - everyone here, anyhow. Still, it's different when it actually happens.

It's actually happening faster than I expected. I thought they might hold off a while on sending their core/pillar franchises over. Guess not.

 

[Mr Moose]

I wonder how much it'll cost.

Currently 50% off on Steam and Xbox, wonder if it'll launch at that price.

And that's a good thing. The lesser exclusive games the better.

When it comes to the MS catalog, I agree.

There is nothing realistic about a Lambo that is 3.5" off the ground trucking in through mud and rocky fields.

It is pure arcade in that respects.

Or jumping ramps at 200+ MPH and doing 20 barrel rolls crashing down a mountain and circling around and doing it again

 

[RetroGamingUK]

Doesn't look like it's included.
Publisher:
Microsoft Corporation

Whaaat, not Xbox Game Studios?

As many predicted, the Xbox brand will fade away

[Sephimoth]

Imagine thinking people will still buy future Xboxs after this. They must know it won't happen...

What's crazy is that Sony appears to be floundering at the moment (arrogant/lazy phase), Xbox could have used this lull to push forward. They have enough studios.
Could have been a 360 moment again.

 

[Roman Empire]

Still prefer FH4. Is FH5 multiplayer still broken?

 

[sainraja]

I would have bought it but I already have this for XSX.

 

[Radical_3d]

Well, it’s an arcade and I appreciate that. But is bland and boring. Driving is not that fun and going through terrain is lame. Still better than all-simulation-Sony. Looked great on my ex-XBox.

 

[SoloCamo]

One of the only games I've pre-ordered in modern times and have not been disappointed. I still play it weekly and on PC at max settings it still looks great to this day considering it's 2021. Tons of people still play it but the additional pool of new players will be nice.

All I ask is don't be the guy that rams you off the road, especially when you are on a team against bots. I've rage quit plenty of times due to it but it's inherent to racing games so yea... That said, if you are half decent anyways you won't have a problem catching up to anyone even after a crap move like that. The other big thing is most people just got for big power builds and this causes a lot of crashes to bc they skip tire/brake/suspension upgrades. Nothing like braking for a sharp then and then getting slammed into the wall.

I am still totally sure more Xbox “consoles” are coming but it begs the question how do you market them?

 

[Moses85]

will follow

 

[Hollowpoint5557]

Will we see it on Switch 2 as well?

I have over 1400 hours on this game, it's fantastic.

There are 2 cars in particular though that I can't see making the jump. The OPI Ford GT was a time limited car available with purchase of OPI branded nail polish and then there is the Ford Deluxe Coupe that was available only with purchase of the FH5 themed limited edition controller. I can't see them re-issuing both as the OPI deal was done years ago.

Got my answer. Should be coming to Switch 2 as well.

I liked Horizon 4 quite a bit better and still play it on PC, but Horizon 5 is still a great game.

I will. If only as a Gamepass console.

 

[VolticArchangel]

I hope but never heard

Would be nice if they delayed it to patch pro enhanced support though

You absolutely cannot ship a game on the PS5 without Pro support. It's a mandatory clause for publishing on PlayStation, just like you can't ship a game on Xbox Series without Series S support.

There are no if's and buts or a delayed sku. The game should be enhanced on the Pro, AT LAUNCH, since the release of the console last year.

 

[Soapbox Killer]

The Xbox is dead. Long Live Xbox!






It is a great racing game!

 

[SEGAvangelist]

Currently 50% off on Steam and Xbox, wonder if it'll launch at that price.

That would be awesome. I'll double dip for a good price on the PS5 since that's where my wheel works.

 

[Esppiral]

All of a sudden it becomes a good game.

 

[Cakeboxer]

I think it will be an expensive powerhouse for enthusiasts and fanboys, so no marketing needed.

eXtas1s doesn't know anything. He makes things up, steals others leaks and farms Twitter $.

When wasn't it?

It just has to run on the Pro, it has to support Pro features to be labeled Pro Enhanced

One of them will be I agree with that
