GB : This is what Greenwalt had to say, “There are a lot of PCs that are really powerful now and yet a lot of the games don’t look much better because it’s an unstable platform. You have to make it for the lowest common denominator. So, would more power and more RAM help? Always. But it wouldn’t help immediately.”
Ex-Turn 10 employee reveals that the Forza Motorsport division has been closed, with the studio now focusing on supporting Forza Horizon.
Hmm would this mean Forza Motorsport series is dead as we know it? Seems that way. On a brighter note, I'm sure Forza Horizon will go from strength to strength
"I also feel like Turn 10 and the Forza Motorsport series is on its last legs. The newest game in the series completely killed off most of its fanbase."
I made that comment 419 days ago, I knew this was coming.
I wouldn't say all that. I personally feel its been pumped out too much and we dont need another one for awhile. I'd rather than work on a new ip or 2 then return to forza. And considering horizon branch is the one working on Fable if they are making another Horizon they'd need that extra support
I think everyone did. Horizon was just a better game and making two racing games just sort of doesn’t make sense even if one is arcade style and one is a sim.
I think annual or biannual releases are over. The market barely supports annual sports releases anymore
Forza Motorsport is dead too? That was an Xbox pillar. Guess it’s Horizon’s race now.
But isn't Turn10 the lead studio? Develops the main Forza engine for Motorsport that Playground uses it for Horizon?
If true, that makes Gran Turismo the longest running Racing Simulator game on console.
It already was, there had been 4 mainline Gran Turismo games released, plus the concept / prologue games, before the first Forza was released on Xbox.
@RaiderNation
The PSP game launched in 2010. The user you are replying to specified GT games released before the first Forza Motorsport game.
GT i s and was the King of racing sims on conaole ...Forza was and is eating GT's dust from the start....
GT is still undisputed in the realm of consumer-level racing simulation software. Not just on consoles but everywhere that ignores specialized sim racing rigs that typically cost over $30k to make.
If false it makes Gran Turismo the longest running Racing Simulator game on console. It came out long before Forza
Gran Turismo had 4 full games out spanning 2 console generations before the first Forza was released. Gran Turismo 4 was released in 2004, the first Forza came out in 2005.
Developer Turn 10 Studios' changes to player progression in Forza Motorsport should become a standard for the simulation racing genre moving forward.
I don’t get why anyone would post anything Xbox positive on this site. Ballsy though.
I’m not really a sim racing fan so I really don’t know. I love the forza horizon series though so I’m sure I’ll still get hate for saying that lol
@ Ghost
I enjoy the console war stuff as entertainment, but, like what you like and make no excuses. Horizon is Xbox's strongest series at the same time I am shocked that Motorsport bombed this hard.
Ohhhh helllll noooo!!!
It's the worst part of the bloody game, actually ruins it a lot!!
I’ve heard nothing but bad about this game from consumers. It’s weird how the media outlets seem to live the sh*t out of it. I think they maybe don’t have their fingers on the pulse with this one.
During Sunday's Xbox Showcase, Turn 10 Studios dropped a trailer for the next iteration of Forza Motorsport, which it teased back in January.
Or they could do what gt does, content drops monthly with new cars, tracks, races, updates all for free and still working on the next gt at the same time.
Just saying.
Um did you read the article lol
There no gonna work on new games they are gonna make forza live service and just update the same game for who knows how long rather than giving a proper new version every couple of yrs.
Turn10 have a plan to support Forza Motorsport for 10 years. Makes sense and them announcing
that the new career mode has service features built in directly to put tracks and cars in which line up with there vision.
Yeah sure, so many devs keep promising these "service" like games that they can't commit to. Let's see how long they can hold peoples attention before they scrap this idea and just release another numbered game.
Live service LMAO. Like that’s ever been a great idea. Not a single game out there with a live service that’s lived up to it’s original promise. Live service is just an excuse for devs to drip feed content, scrap it after two years and say we are working on the next entry. But hey, it’s all free content so why you complaining lol.
Nah there are successful live service games that people enjoy. Deep rock galactic. FFIV. Rocket League. Etc.. its just when they take beloved single player games and convert them to nickle and dime bullshlaka fests.
Nails been hit on the head. PC players can always argue that PC > console but that doesn't matter unless your PC is a monster and the truth is there are more people with PC's that are about as powerful as an Xbox.
PC games have had system requierments since day 1, not sure what this interview is telling us
Consoles have become more common IMO compared to PC gaming.
oh, snap. the anger is coming.
makes sense though almost every pc is different.
