At a time when Gran Turismo ruled the roost, Forza Motorsport came along and defied all expectations by not only delivering an excellent racing sim, but one that was genuinely great enough to be able to go up against Gran Turismo and provide some meaningful competition. The first Forza Motorsport’s legacy is impossible to oversell, and for fans of racing sims, this was a landmark release.
It looked great, the audio design was typically excellent, new features like Drivatars and Forzavista were introduced, and the cars felt really good to drive, but the game was crippled by a shockingly small roster of vehicles and a disappointing lack of track variety at launch. Thankfully, it’s not technically a mainline entry, so it’s rather easy to completely overlook.Īs the first Forza game to release for the Xbox One, Forza Motorsport 5 was well-positioned to really leverage the new console to deliver an excellent experience, but the game turned out to be a bit of a letdown, especially coming off of the excellent Forza Motorsport 4. It’s an extremely simplified experience that doesn’t do much of anything you’d expect a Forza game to do. It doesn’t help that it’s a mobile-only title, which means that it’s lacking in the sort of mechanical perfection, polish, and visual fidelity the series has traditionally been known for. Forza Motorsport has consistently offered excellent simulation mechanics, while Horizon is an incredible arcade series, but Forza Street is really neither here nor there. With Forza Horizon 5 coming out soon and looking extremely promising, here, we’re going to take a look back at all the Forza games to have ever come out, and rank them from worst to best.Īn easy pick for the lowest spot in this list. Ever since its inception over a decade and a half ago, the series has consistently put out great games in whatever form it’s taken, to the extent that, for the most part, even at its lowest point, it’s been far, far from bad. Forza has been one of Microsoft’s biggest, most prestigious franchises for pretty much as long as it’s been around, and it’s easy to see why.
