Forza Horizon 5 comes to PS5 this Spring

I’m surprised a lot of people wanted 4 over this.

I don’t think either is great but 4 is worse than this I say, one of the most boring open worlds out there and the seasons addition was a gimmick more than anything.

3 > 1 > 5 > 4 > 2 I say.
It had the scenic Fortune Island and all Bond cars. That alone is enough to elevate it's standing.

Its not Forza Horizon 3 but it still a hell of a good game.
And runs on a potato, so Pro Enhancements should bring it up to PC standard easy work.

Download the Rally DLC......its absolutely worth if only to relive Colin McRae Rally 3
I deeply regret getting the Rally DLC. The exclusive cars handle very well, but the courses, topography, and scenery of the area are sleep inducing. The soothing voices giving directions did not help either. 😴

In contrast, even though I have never liked Hot Wheels the high speed races across physics defying, icy, and wet course obstacles are exciting. Much better than anything Forza Horizon 3 offered in its Hot Wheels DLC. ☠️

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

Crossplay or naw?
Yes.
Wishlist Forza Horizon 5 on the PlayStation Store today to stay informed about updates and release times. If you already own the game on another platform, share the news with your friends in the PS5 community and tell them to get ready to join your convoys as cross-play will be available for all Forza Horizon 5 players across Xbox consoles, PC and PS5.

Is there any emphasis by Sony on making these older games enhanced for the PS5 Pro?

They should in order to get the most out of the release.

I think this is a good thing, overall. MS decided to be a publisher, buying a ton of studios and publishers. There is no way that would be profitable by making everything exclusive.

This is a good thing. They have plenty of games that can sell a ton on Playstation. Forza Horizon 5 and MCC are going to make MS a lot. Their best bet for a console with an ecosystem they can profit from is with windows/PC.
 
It just has to run on the Pro, it has to support Pro features to be labeled Pro Enhanced

Let me make this clear to you. You cannot ship a game on PlayStation 5, without PS5 Pro enhanced features, since the launch of the PS5 Pro last year, period.

It's a mandatory first party rule that Sony enforces, just like they did on the PS4 Pro and Microsoft did with the Xbox One X and are now doing (since the start of the gen) with the Series S.

There's no dodging around this by "it has to just run, but without features". No. This is NOT backwards compatibility. This is SAME platform. The PS5. It HAS TO BE enhanced. It's mandatory.

It's the reason why PS5 Pro is the definitive place to play GTA 6 this year or even next year, even if the next Xbox launches next year, Rockstar won't patch it and just launch another next gen sku.

Really?

There have been games that launched this month that are not PS5 Pro enhanced

Sony better take an advantage of this situation they're in - Stop announcing PC ports.

You have your main competitor literally handing you their games for free on a platter, you have your own exclusives coming, and you are THE place to play the biggest game of all time, GTA6.

They dont even have to do anything, they just stay winning. Now stop wasting time and energy on these nonsensical PC ports.

Now that their engine is ported to PS5, expect Fable to launch on PS5

100%

I expect everything to come over now.

Yeah I didn't understand fans who would keep on denying this. There is no way that you keep a 80 billion investment exclusive. Unless Series would like skyrocket past PS5 all of a sudden, which would ofcourse never happen.

I can see they tried with Starfield, which was sort of the first big release. But I think right after that they made up their minds. They reportedly lost 10 million potential copies, sans DLC and MTX, by excluding PS5. Shareholders won't appreciate this. Perhaps Phil really tried, but he was obviously shut down.

The first really big Xbox game to come to PS5, Halo and Gears will also, I think, do so in the next few months, it's just a matter of how long it takes them to port them.

Eh, ports on a 6 month-1 year duration means their console sees the majority of sales while getting extra from PC later with slightly better versions, all while getting Xbox games. Unless that starts to cause console sales to tank, they're in a good place.

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.
If we're talking about the off-road aspects or how you can destroy trees and brick walls sure, but I was mainly talking about the on-road physics which are quite realistic and not need for speed like.

It is pretty original NFS or PGR like.

The most recent abominations of NFS, you might as well call them "on rails" at this point.

FH are great games if you want open world arcadey actions zipping around everywhere.

Just be warned PS gamers, these games have an annoying way of forcing in narrators making the game like one giant college party mode. And the games always start with a canned tutorial which then gets you to the party hub complete with fireworks. I barely played FH5 so I dont remember, but the older FH games were like that.
They already have my money you don't have to sell me.
