Games as deep and challenging and Forza Motorsport 4 typically struggle with accessibility.

Ask a gamer with no knowledge of football to pick up the sticks in All Pro Football 2K8, and he'll probably throw down the controller in frustration after a few minutes of getting manhandled.

Developer Turn 10 Studios knows that most gamers aren't certified auto mechanics. The developer's fourth version of Forza Motorsport provides a number of "training wheels" to keep beginner racers on the road, as well as modes like car soccer and car painting, which don't require any knowledge of racing to be fun.

But when it's time to take the racing assists off for some serious driving or car-tuning, Forza 4 crosses the finish line first, offering the finest racing simulator on the current generation of consoles.

Creating a simulation-style game that's accessible and deep isn't an easy task, but it's what makes Forza 4 a sports gaming classic.

Forza pawns all

Good review.

I've generally preferred the GT games over Forza in the past, but I'm a convert now. It's almost as if Turn 10 took note of what GT user's frustrations were and addressed them in their own game, in addition to creating steller graphics, physics, and AI.

They out-thought and "out-GT'd" GT IMHO.

1)The difficulty ramps up as you progress through World Tour mode.

2)If you access career races through the event list, you can manually set the difficulty.

"Not being able to remove the in-game HUD will impact Forza drivers who like to use the cockpit cam. Lap times, car positions, etc., can never be completely turned off, obstructing the mirror views on several car models' cockpit camera."

I don't know what game the OP is playing but the one I play you can turn EVERYTHING off. Just your cockpit, the road and the competition. I've been doing it since day one of Forza 4's release. Nothing personal with the OP but these internet "reviews" really need to be proof read and verified before being put out. It's not like it's some hidden special 4 button combo. Just go to HUD and kill it all.
