huzzah, something that isn't Halo, Gears or Forza!


Forza Horizon really isn't Forza.  Its PGR5 using a different name especially since its developed mostly by former Bizzare Creations employees.  Turn 10 has only a supporting role in the development of the game their busy working on DLC for Forza 4 and Forza 5.

Really? Why not just call it Project Gotham? Unless I'm wrong, that was quite popular, I seem to remember people calling out for that to return. I know internet hype is not the same as real life hype but still.

At this point Forza is just a bigger name and gets more recognition which they hope will lead to more sales.  PGR 4 only sold over a million because it was included in a X-Box live starter kit even though it was better then the 3rd game without that it probably would have only sold about 800K copies.  Im sure they hoping that Forza Horzion will sell over a million copies without bundles and heavy discounts.

hm doubt it.
Did 650k in 2007 and 800k in 2008, but was only bundled very late in 2008.
