I love to drive! Whether it's online or in real life, the sensation of movement, power, and control that comes from operating an automobile at a high level of speed and control is exciting to me!

Of course, motorcycles, airplanes, helicopters and spacecraft offer a thrill and excitement that one might not know in the real world, but it is compelling to experience online!

But, the automobile is special. We all have seen them, taken rides in them, owned them, and lusted after them. Anyone with a license knows the basic physics involved, and it is something we can share and compare with each other in terms we all understand.

Back in the day, we used to race each other in arcades, or on a video game called Grand Turismo 3, and GT4 for PlayStation 2. It offered thrills and simulated the excitement of car travel and racing. Need for Speed was a cool title that allowed you to give damage and take damage to your vehicle in a more dramatic way than the games that came before it.

The Microsoft Forza Horizon Series, for X Box Console, however, took this idea light years ahead of any of the racing games before it. In Forza Horizon 3, for example, you are a race car driving personality, setting up racing festivals all across the Australian landscape! You are in control of the locations, and the types of races, terrain, name, and even weather conditions of the race! More opportunities to drift, fly through the air, crash into other vehicles, land, and terrain, are present than in any other racing game I had played up until then!

The Forza Horizon 4 Series is the current iteration, and takes us on an epic journey to Great Britain! There are increased abilities from the Horizon 3 game beyond locale, however. In Horizon 4 you can drive over the crest of mountains! You can catch mad air while soaring through the sky over the landscape and take a photo, in mid air! You can own homes, start businesses, customize your avatar, and program your avatars movements, while they are at times, out of their vehicles! Although, you cannot yet go into the properties you buy, with in game online credits, or possibly with available game packs purchased with cash, you can own multiple businesses, homes, vehicles, and property.

The Forza Horizon 4 game is optimized for 4K Ultra HD, High Definition, HDR, High Dynamic Range, and is enhanced for the X Box One X console! You will likely see more detail, increased ranges of color, and quicker performance, with the newer, X Box One X console! Personally, I enjoy being able to keep in touch with friends online, compete with other players, rivals online, and buying and selling vehicles in the simulated online auction.

What do you think about this game and this review? I purposely left some things out, so that I could focus on my faves, but what are your experiences and preferences with this game series? Hit me up in the comments section, in the link below. Happy Motoring!
