    Re: Forza Motorsport 5 Review (XBox One)

    I heard you there. I already have a Fanatec CSR Elite, CSR Elite Pedals, the CSR Shifter, a couple of wheel stands, the Thrustmaster T500RS, etc.

    But none of them worked with the XB1, and I love racing...so I had no choice but to get a TX also. And boy, was I happy I did.

      How do you buy more cars and tracks? I read on the net that they said they'd sell a pack of 10 cars each month. Where do I go??

        You can buy the first 10 car pack the LaFerrari pack through the marketplace, or you can you can buy the season pass thing for cars which is 50 bucks and gets you 6 car packs as they come out.

        Right now the first car pack is the only thing you can actually buy and get now, the track downloads haven't been added to the store or really confirmed in detail much from t10

          Ok, thanks for the heads up. Oh and you mean marketplace on Xbox one, not the in game Forza marketplace right?

            Yup, the ingame marketplace says coming soon. You can also get to it the pack by going to buy cars and finding the LaFerrari and trying to buy it, it then prompts you the option for buying the car pack through xbox one's marketplace.

                In Forza how can you tell what the car specs for each race should be? I realize it will say like "Current car eligible" but how do you know the lowest and highest car that can be used?

                I hate not doing too well and then upgrading my car a bunch then going back to race and it says my car needs downgraded. Or on the flip side sometimes it tells me I should consider upgrading my car in order to better compete.

                How the heck am I supposed to know what the spec range is so I can quit just guessing??

                  When you first select the series, where you would see "Current Car Eligible" on the right, there's also other specs--less than X performance, specific drive train or manufacturer, etc. I can't tell you the exact button presses to do because I'm not in front of the console, but you can see the max power allowed and any other potential restrictions in the series description when you first go to enter it.

                            I think there is one out for $399 but too much $$$ for me...

                              Mad Catz has one coming out in Feb. I believe and will be the same price also.

                                They can go eat those wheels. Not buying another $500 setup when the one I have works fine with every other platform but the Xbox One.
