Looks like the Forza Horizon 6 project was started with the intention of it being exclusive to Xbox, then the PS project expansion happened later on.

Nah, pretty sure timed exclusive was always the intention in the hope that people also buy an xbox having pushed FH5 on them already.

Even with Gamepass, I have still purchased games outright on Steam due to how shit the app is.

I wouldn't be surprised if most others have done the same thing.

you don't even have to use the app after you downloaded a game through it.

so not sure why you'd do that.

download the game, make a desktop shortcut, start the game that way.

The best version will be launching day 1 on PC.

Yep can spend the whole week fucking about with settings and .ini files to get 61fps instead of 59fps and not actually play the game.

Plenty of games I've used via the app have had either restrictions that the Steam versions do not, or issues like worse frame pacing and bugs. The only ones I can think of that are actually better are The Evil Within and Tomb Raider Definive Edition.

Your cope is insane.

Also, whose feet are in your profile pic and why aren't they in my mouth?

I doubt that will be the case for a Forza Horizon title.

In the Windows Store?

I'm amazed at how guys lie on the internet to boast "victory"

Yes the windows store version then played through the Xbox app, it runs much better than on out of date Steam. I will be playing it at least 120fps 8k on my RTX 5060 8GB, and on my ROG ALLY XBOX X 1080p 60fps max settings handheld or docked 4k 60fps .

Forza Horizon 3 was fine, so it probably will be all good. That said, I'll still grab on Steam. A stable platform I know will be around for a long time. Plus I'm more than happy to pay for a game I like. I certainly wouldn't touch the Xbox app for a game I'm paying for when Steam exists.

Wow, you really have to believe that everyone is an idiot.

I mean this is the exact same device family that almost doubled its MSRP and is getting delisted at major retailers worldwide.

Playing timed exclusives to push a console that is currently unfindable and unaffordable is absolute suicide IMHO, which is why I think it's a dev pipeline thing, them announcing the PS5 port is happening from the get-go supports that too.

MS isn't doing a COD Black Ops 7 hardware bundle and have cut production + raised prices significantly on base hardware but they're delaying a PS5 release of the new entry of a franchise - that they've recently made multiplatform - to boost hardware sales?

All about GamePass still, this will sell millions on Playstation regardless how long after it releases.

I need no cope. I just enjoy all the games and devices!

As for the feet....I can't even remember anymore! But I agree!

 

[joey Dubs]

Headline: Forza Horizon 6 will come to PlayStation 5 after some timed exclusivity!

Gamers: argue about sales as if they stand to profit from them.

lmao the shit console gamers tell themselves to help them feel better
