Forza 5 (Xbox One) - Out now

joystiq.com wrote:Forza Motorsport 5 will, in some capacity, feature the hosts of BBC's spectacularly popular motoring show Top Gear, Turn 10 design lead Bill Giese said during a walkthrough of the game's modes during E3.

Jeremy Clarkson, who lent his voice to Forza 4's Autovista mode, will be joined by co-hosts Richard Hammond and James May, though their exact role in the new game is still nebulous. "I can tell you all three hosts are involved, they're going to give us some awesome structure in how we present our career to players," Giese said. "We'll be announcing a little bit more about that this summer, but we're super excited to have all three hosts this time."

The XBox One is as fast as Formula One car and the size of 10 football pitches.

Microsoft moneyhatting Top Gear into letting them do some sort of 'challenge' on Xbox One.

ps, there were already top gear events, challenges and races in f4

They had the test track in F3 as well. But hearing their gimpy, smarmy voices in game? A line needs to be drawn somewhere.

Im probably alone in this, but Id be open to short video reviews of cars or little voiceovers for cars from each one. Outside of the TV program they are all pretty decent journos when it comes to writing about cars.

Yeah, I only really bothered with the Top Gear button on each car in Autovista, and would be open to that kind of thing too - possibly adding any Stig lap times as ghosts/target times etc on the test track.

Yeah Stig times would be good.

That would be cool. I'd love it if they got some professionals to do lap times, stick them in game and let you see their racing lines, etc. They'd probably have to pick one car, but that wouldn't bother me in the slightest.


Something like that would be more interesting to me than never shutting up about the level of detail they've put in making sure they've got the right leather on the seats and other nonsense.

See, anal levels of detail is definately a selling point to me, but Id rather have the fundements tippy top first. And as a long term and die hard fan of Forza, I just find silly stuff like no weather and time changes to be a huge omission. Its been missing and requested for at least 3 iterations now and its showing the laziness.

I'm sure Clarkson screaming at you "Why are you choosing this car? Rubbish!" would be appealing.

The reflections are a really nice touch.

That sun glare is ridiculous I hope that there will be day 1 Sunglasses DLC.

Hammond

No sale if that little banana split can't be switched off.

This car is about twice the weight of a formula one car.
This Bugatti beyron had 249493bhp per tonne, which is double that of a formula one car.
NOW!
*bunged up sniff*
UM, YEAAH CHAPS

It would just be Hammond making fapping noises whenever you're driving a RUF or Porsche.

Actually I'd be happy for him to be in it if I can do a slow motion burnout on his face.
