Does it really matter? I love Forza, particularly Forza Horizon but I'm not particularly fussed if it's the best game out there. I really enjoy them which is the most important thing; others may prefer GT or Project Cars or The Crew or whatever, good for them. So trying to give a crown as it were to one game is pointless IMO.

The question you should ask is "Do I enjoy this game?". If the answer is yes, then you already know who the winner is.

Having said that I do love the look of FM6 and can't wait to try it out! Been very impressed by reviews so far.


It doesnt matter. Its ok to talk about what games set the bars high and as for Turn 10, they do it every year without showing signs of fatigue. I think its better to talk about a games qaulity then worthless Sales figures which i notice clutter up the forums these days.

Well, you are on a sales site so talk of sales is naturally going to be a hot topic (even if the focus on these sales is somewhat lower than a few years ago). 

And that's my point, quality is subjective. Other people may prefer a game like The Crew due to the large open world, or Gran Turismo for its respective quirks. Which is why I feel the only metric which really matters is what you think of a game and not others opinions. Sure that's easier said than done but if you enjoy something does it really matter what others think?

When you have many reviewers prasing a game then its a clear indication of quailty then Sales because Sales can happen based off many reasons and most times its not the quality of the product/game were as straight up reviews give a much better indication of a qulaity product, and thats why i base my claims off Metacritic and not just 1 review site either.

iPhones arent the best products on the shelf however its the top selling mobile in the world. VW Beetles arent the greatest cars in the world however sold the most cars in the auto industry. Sales dont determine quality. Never did.

How about a new rallisport challenge Microsoft? *wink wink* :)

Phil if you're reading this *hint hint* !

Well those games didn't sell enough to make the jump to the 360 so I doubt that they will revive the franchise for the X1.  Anway Horizon 3 will probably have more rally cars then 2 had and will more then likely have something like Storm Island at launch.  Also there is a good chance that a GRC track could show up in Forza 6 it would be a good excuse to bring over the 2014 VW Beetle GRC from Horizon 2 to Forza its one of only a handful of cars in Horizon 2 that didn't make it into Forza 6.



Forza's had the crown for a while now, since the FM4 days. Before that, PGR2/3 had the crown.

F5 lost it with its pathetic content and crazy price.

I would say since FM3.

Maybe so but lets look at it alittle closer. GT6 sold 2.5m+ on a console with over 85m USER Base, FM5 sold 2m+ on a console with 10m+ USER base. Also GT6 did review slightly better however FM5 still took home RGOTY awards over GT6 and GT6 had the luxary of using a already popular game and only adding to it while FM5 was built from the ground up. GT is a very good series and probably Sonys best and most successful however doesnt seem to be king of its genre anymore since FM3 onwards.



GT7 will outsell all Forza's for the XOne so the crown still resides with PD. Quality wise? Who knows until we actually see GT7/ GT Sport.
