Great review, Robert. I personally found the Horizon series at times difficult to play and would get lost in the worlds. The demo appeared to clean this up and the fun factor looks to be through the roof. I was absolutely going to pass on this game but after this review and playing the demo...my weekend will be all set with 4! Keep up the good work. Anyone know why there is not a new regular Forza this year, I may have missed it.

I'm just bummed that as a Gamepass owner, I didn't have the option to buy the Ultimate Edition DLC and play early. If I wanted it, I would have to pay the full $100, when I am getting the game tomorrow for free.

I'll admit, it crossed my mind to just pay the money, but that would have been ridiculous. But if they offered me a way to pay $40 to get the Ultimate DLC and early gameplay, I would have been playing all weekend.

If you have the Atmos sound app, playing the FH4 demo was flipping amazing. It was one of my favorite gaming moments ever. It's unreal.

Will be on playing the moment it hits Gamepass.

I’m so confused. Why do I feel like I’m the only one who thinks this is a great looking game that isn’t that great. It’s so arcade. Like a pretty version of *an old school arcade game. Is that the point?*I don’t know.*

Because that's the style of game it is. If you want sim driving, play Forza 7. If you want to have more fun, arcade style racing within the same model, then play FH4.

Because it is the SSX of racing games.

Bob, great review as always. I agree with you on the positives and negatives of the game. Menus are a little clunky. Keep up the good work!
