Single Player in FH2 is just as good as online. There's the career mode where you go to different locations and compete. There's bucket list stunts, a few showdowns, barn finds, and just exploring.

While the XB1 has better online with the seamless transitions than the 360 version, the modes are pretty comparable. If you enjoy racing online or want to explore the design aspects, then it's a nice addition.

Single player can get tedious/boring after a while though, so I find online as a way to extend the lifetime of the game for me. But assuming you're asking for XB1, then the graphics and features + single player make it worth it still.

Im in debate on picking this up or Forza 5 GOTY with my X1 on Black Friday. How big of an area is there to explore? Never played a Horizon game so its new to me on what exactly to expect.

While I have had some fantastic nights playing in a party with friends, I'm playing this game solo 99% of the time. I have well over 50 hours of time in the game, and I'm still looking for boards to smash, bucket lists items to cross off, and roads to discover and I've only completed one finale.

Seriously, this is a fantastic single player game. Basically, this is just passed PGR 2 as my all time favorite racing game. It's because it is as fun to race around in a slow hatchback as it is a super car. And the game rides the same PGR balance between arcade and sim.

If you crave ultra sim, then Forza 5 is the game you want. But FH2 is built on the same engine. It looks and feels great. The emphasis is on fun, and there is always something fun to do.

Horizon 2 is at the very top of the racing heap. It delivers in every respect. Graphics, handling, fun...By far the best open-world racing title I have played. I've been playing The Crew some, and while I like it more than most other folks, the more I play The Crew the more I realize what a great game Horizon 2 is.

I've only had it for a couple of days, but this is the first game I truly feel is a next gen experience. This is the prettiest game I've seen on the xbone so far. And the use of driveatars isntead of ai racers really makes this feel like a real world.

Is everyone playing this game with just the XB1 controller? Or do you need a wheel?

I have the Thrustmaster TX Racing Wheel and it is amazing to play this and Forza 5 with it. I get the TH8A shifter add on tomorrow.

I'm only using a controller, and I absolutely love it, and have since launch. Logged way to many hours playing this game, all of them with a controller, no issues whatsoever. The XB1 controller, and it's triggers make this really possible IMO.

I've had this game for over a week and undoubtly the best racer I've ever played. I'm 99 percent offline and loving it. Online is fun too but I love single player. This is the best next gen title out there and a system seller for XBO.

Try to find time to play it nightly, at least for an hour. I have not done that w/ a game in a long time.
