Its OKAY. I wouldnt say it's the best ever. I along with other consumers were advertised that Turn 10 built this game "From the Ground Up" after 6-7 years when the previous version was released. However this wasn't the case with the new game. Ive been playing Forza since the 1st one. The features in this game are the same as the 3rd in terms of customization. It feels rushed and not from the ground up. And i am using the Xbox Series X console for this game. I was rather disappointed. Youtubers have posted several videos of other gamers experiencing the same issues ive had since gettint this game. I would refer you to there before you buy this game.

Overall same as forza 7. Lighting/shadow detail could he improved. Very unrealistic. If your using the G923, shifting will be a big issue with major delay. Forza 7 has better mechanics in this department hands down with abilitiy to change how fast you shift and firmess resulting in different dynamics per gear and wheel hop possibly. These are 2 main areas where the new forza needs highly improved on. Car list is almost identical as well. I could elaborate more, but if your just looking to have some fun on real life tracks and simulation style racing, it will provide enough for most consumers.

The developers spent years talking about how this game will be built from the ground up to take full advantage of new console and pc hardware. This is essentially supposed to be a reboot, a fresh new start for the series.... it just feels like a mildly improved version of Forza 7 that should've been called Forza 8.
We have been given something that feels and looks exactly like all of the previous games in the series. Outdated car models, recycled car sounds, animations and menu graphics that haven't changed, a car list that tries to be more focused but it lacks some classics and must-have newer cars (No GR Corolla, Tesla or Lamborghini Murcielago? Really?)
Instead of teaching you how to become a better driver like Gran Turismo does with the license tests, Forza expects you to rely on assists and the numbing down of the competition by lowering the opponent difficulty.
And unlocking car specific parts/upgrades will be a grind. You will either be love or dislike this. I don't spend all day playing video games, so this is a huge flaw for me.
