Rather at the end of season 1 or after the season 1 characters (in other words no additional fees). Sorry if you ment it like that.

I meant how did you launch a game without Arcade and Story Mode? It is the basic... I know the update will be free.

Last night, my Metascore prediction for this game was 87. Now, it's 74. The average user score will probably be about 3.7.

For a short while now, I've had this theory that Sony will be the only remaining console brand by 2016. And the more bad news I hear about Xbox One's hardware and software, the more I'm convinced that my theory is correct.

Huh? So, less cars and tracks + XB1 failing?

It is near the end of the end....

At least we can take something good from this news...

"Several of our tracks were just plain wrong"

I agree... Nurburgring for example is a bad joke in Forza 4... so they know the tracks are wrong so fix them in the future.

PS. Killer Instinct will have only Arena Mode at launch... Arcade and Story Mode only after season 1.

PS2. GAFs rumors in July are right again... Forza 5 has less than half of the content than Forza 4... a stepback to the franchise.

Well its not like GT hasn't done it before GT3 was a huge step back from GT2 in both number of cars and number of tracks.

Then again: I'm sorry :P Well, 20 bucks still is a great deal IMO, it would be a totally different story if the game were to cost 50/60/70. And you kinda answer your own question with "launch [...] game", Microsoft just doesn't want/allow the game to be postponed.

The score will still be very high. It still has more content than most other racing games. Plus the guy on the ign preview video was completely raving about it so from ign my guess is that it will get a score higher then nine. My guess its meatascore will be slightly higher then Forza Horzion so higher then 85 the average user score will be around 8 probably will go up once some more beastly cars like the 2014 LaFerrari are added through DLC.

Not entirely surprising considering it's a launch title and they have deadlines to meet, but it must be disappointing for Forza fans. Not having Nurburgring though?! That's a shocker. For a racing sim that should be one of the first tracks on the list.
