Doesn't really matter when FH4 is definitely the best driving game by far.
Well that number one is definitely right.
Would've had Sonic and All Stars Racing Transformed on there though. Maybe not a straight replacement for MK8, but definitely higher than it.

It's a list of driving games, not racing games. You're driving in Rocket League so I think it's fair to include.
Great list, can't complain at number 1, FH3 is slightly better because of the non cosmetic wheel spins, but 4 is a great game.
No bias but if Rocket League is on there then surely GTAV should of been. I enjoyed the driving personally for what it was.
Also Wreckfest and BeamNG!

Wouldn't put Forza Horizon 4 above GT Sport myself but that's not a Top 3 worth complaining about at all.
Oh really, that's fantastic then thank you.
I really want to buy it, FH4 ultimate is on sale for £40 (though I had to go through a different link from google to get the ultimate bundle to include the lego dlc) but every video I've loaded up so far ... the environments look so boring. Just like English country side.
I want glorious arcade sunsets, highways and tall trees on both sides, sea in the background or underneath you ...I don't see any of that. I feel like I will be dissappointed. It looks graphically good but dull.
I was ready to buy it after reading your comment but just browsing youtube video after video after video hoping to see something but I see nothing that grabs me.
Like, what is this?
I don't even want to go outside when it looks like that here.
Even Forza Horizon 1 looks like it has a cooler environment.
Am I wrong? Do I need to play it? I think it might just be aiming too much for realism and not fantasy settings like I want. I think I'd rather play a smaller arcade title.

You are correct it is very boring. The progression is bad and there is zero consequence to anything you do. Come in first or last it doesn't matter you still get showered with rewards. If you want to dive around a sandbox, Horizon 3 is better anyway. List makes more sense if re titled to "20 most popular of the decade"
This is truly the greatest one. Too bad most people haven't experienced it. Every other racing game pales in comparison to me. Except for other VR Sims being close.
Yeah I don't mean to sound like I'm flaming but If you're not playing forza horizon as a racing fan, you are absolutely wasting your time. Get a pc Xbox all digital or xcloud or something
FH4 is one of my favorite games of the generation. I tend to come back to it once in a while.
I'm not that big on racing. I just like the driving aspects. I hope they add a rally expansion to it tho.

Ha, just did the same. 2007, man.
Better than any of the FH games, too.
You're asking if Forza Horizon 4 is purely rain and dirty and mountains the whole time? Of course not.
Lots of different time, weather, and locations.
If you want a super bright sunset experience the whole time, naw that's not gonna happen. If you think its dark and rainy and the same location throughout the game, its not like that either.
i might be mistaken but i'm pretty sure you're driving in mario kart.
You don't race in Mario Kart?
Lol have I been doing it wrong all these years?
There's plenty of games in that list that beat it on its racing tbh.
I mean it's set in the UK so obviously a fair amount of it will look like the English (well mostly Scottish) countryside.
That said the UK is beautiful so I don't think this is at all a problem. You've got sandswept coastal roads with castles in the background, sweeping mountain valley roads with the railway bridge from Harry Potter, twisty roads based in the lake District. The game is gorgeous.
If you're not sure why don't you try it with Gamepass?
Why is that a problem?
Isn't winning satisfying enough in and of itself?
Why do you need to know that you'd get less fake money had you placed worse?
Alright, I'll grab it, thanks. I think I needed a push. I should probably try it out on gamepass but it's a big game to download twice, don't have my super fast internet for a few more weeks and the sale ends soon. I think I would have preferred Australia to UK for the sunny visuals but the UK will have to do.
It wouldn't make sense to pick up FH3 over 4, right?
Top 3 are interchangeable depending on your preference, but very much deserved. Driver SF and Driveclub are way way too low.
Theres folks that prefer FH3 over FH4. I think it just depends on you. I will say the Hot Wheels expansion for FH3 was amazing.
