In so many ways this feels like a vastly improved and polished instalment in the Forza Horizon series. That makes us wonder where Microsoft will take this series after this. In the short term we can perhaps expect some expansion packs but what about the next instalment? Perhaps adding different kinds of vehicles and a different location will work, but the biggest challenge will be topping what's been achieved with Forza Horizon 3.

It's probably the best Forza ever and the best arcade racing in years. It offers so much content that you won't know where to jump first, while enjoying the game just for pleasure.

I've always asked myself that "How far will Forza Horizon move on and continue ? Well, Playground Games has tons of ideas and offering this amount of variety, especially considering the little time between the offical releasment of the various version from the series, makes their work more valuable.

When you pose the analysis of Forza Horizon 3 you know in advance what you will find. Freedom, great music, heart-stopping graphics and loads of hours of wild driving ahead. However, the pleasant surprise is to see that it is not a mere clone of Forza Horizon 2, but that PlayGround Games, despite the obvious continuity, knows how to add elements that give freshness to the whole.

I was impressed with Forza Horizon 3. I have played every version of Forza since Motorsport 2. Every time a new Forza game comes out, it am confused by how amazing they are. If you compare Horizon 1 to Horizon 3, the games are so different. But if Horizon 2 and Horizon 3 are compared, the setting is the only major difference. Still, Playground Games managed to make an amazing game that makes up for it's lack of improvements with stunning visual features.

Forza Horizon 3 is a spectacular looking game, it plays great, and is fun. But I didn't click with it, why's that?

Forza Horizon 3 gave me the experience that I came for: Beautiful Open-World that contains a huge number of various and entertaining activities. The game has a huge number of varied cars, and encourages you to try them in different environments. If you’re looking for a cars game that focus more on the fun than the realism, then there’s no other game that competes with Forza Horizon at the moment.

Don’t like that the pre-set Horizon Festival event wants you to use off-road vehicles? Change it. Make your own so that you can use your favourite car

At the end of the road, Forza Horizon 3 really isn't the type of game where you're cutting surgical lines across pristine tarmac.  Instead, you're racing a variety of vehicle types against an equally diverse landscape while kicking up dust and dodging the occasional downpour.  It's a wilder side of Forza where you're free to tackle Australia in whatever way you feel is the most enjoyable, and it gives you all the tools you need to make the experience yours.  I've always enjoyed the Motorsport side of the track, but Horizon 3 is where you go to have flat-out fun while still sharing the series' strong racing pedigree.

The most ambitious racing game out there also happens to be a blast to play, with fantastic audiovisual design making the races and open world journey all the more exciting and compelling. Forza Horizon 3 is the best thing to happen to racing games since Burnout Paradise.

Forza Horizon 3 is amazing, I thought it would be tough to top Forza Horizon 2 but Playground Games managed to do it. I feel the setting is by far the best setting out of all the other Forza games and the huge map makes things even better. The improvements to customization and the additions of other game modes make this by far the definite Forza Horizon game.  Forza Horizon 3 isn't just a Game Of The Contender. It is THE Game Of The Year.

With plenty of activities to do and the option to engage in them with friends online, I can easily say that Forza Horizon 3 quickly succeeded in becoming my favourite title in the Forza series to date.

The worst thing about 'Forza Horizon 3' is that it may have stolen me away from the 'Forza Motorsport' series for good. There's an important freedom to be found in the Australian festival racing, and the land is a gorgeous one when alight or after the rain. For those of us on the HDR train, this is close to must-have demo material, but it's tremendous fun on top of that. Playing casually or with a crazed glint in my eye, 'Forza Horizon 3' is a fantastic playground.

Forza Horizon 3 delivers the ultimate car fantasy and festival experience, introduces innovative new features, and has listened to fans by returning some long missed ones. This is the Horizon game we’ve wanted, and developer Playground Games have delivered. Forza Horizon 3 is undoubtedly the ultimate celebration of cars, music, and freedom of the open road.

In the end, Forza Horizon 3 is still an excellent game that is worth playing. Most of the PC issues should eventually be resolved with an update. It's just mildly disappointing that Microsoft didn't have everything ready to go when the cars crossed the starting line.
