Forza World Podcast - A Forza Horizon Podcast

(Originally recorded Jan 22) Finally, some more Forza news! Forza Horizon 6 was revealed a few months ago, and details continue to trickle in on what we can expect. We now have the majority of the important details, including a (very mid) trailer that was released, showcasing cars and scenery in the most realistic version yet. It shouldn't be a secret to anyone though: this entire series is in big-time trouble right now. With the death of Forza Motorsport, and back-to-back flops with Ho...

The fellas are back, and Forza still stinks! We return from an unplanned hiatus with some important topics to analyze. Here’s a list of the main topics of discussion! Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown Review Aren gives his initial feelings on a Forza alternative, TDU Solar Crown. This is a game we have discussed in the past, and if you are unfamilliar, it is worth listening to Aren contrast the game with Forza Horizon. Amazon Hires Former Forza Devs For New Competitor Game Here we go! Our pr...

In just one week, the new Forza Motorsport game will be launched, and we break down what we're hearing and seeing so far about the game. We dive into some concerns we have with the rollout and promotion, specifically issues with the Premium Edition and the Add-On version. Jason raises some very valid points on behalf of all disc owners who want premium, and Aren discusses the pointlessness of the early access incentive. Among many other concerns with the point of pre-ordering the game, we exa...

Get out the tin foil hats, because we have some baseless conspiracy theories for you! Forza Horizon has had a wild hot streak of great updates, and it almost perfectly coincides with the former Playground Games Creative Director leaving the company. Do we have any evidence there's a connection? Nope. Does it line up? Yep, it lines up way too well. Regardless, we still touch on the hottest topic in Forza right now, the Barbie Movie partnership and the corresponding giveaways and heavier-than-e...

On this episode, Aren is absolutely waffled from a few girly drinks. We discuss the upcoming Forza Motorsport reboot game that has had a lot of people talking lately after its lacklustre Bethesda event. We dissect the event, and decide if there were a lot of details to be positive about, or if there were too few to be confident. We unpacked every single new detail, and circled back to points that we already knew about the game. We also hinted about a major track that we know is returning...

A special edition of the podcast this we dive into the new Forza Horizon Celebration update. It's been 10 years since the original Forza Horizon dropped, and Playground Games is celebrating by bringing back songs from old games, special reward cars and challenges, stories, and more. Each week is an alternating theme, from Forza Horizon games 1 through 4, featuring a remaster of their respective intro screen. We'll be doing another special edition show dedicated to the 10 year anniversary of H...

Can you name a character from Forza Horizon 3? What about 4 or Forza Horizon 5? We sure as heck couldn't, and that was a big talking point on this edition of the Forza World Podcast. We're back after a little summer break, and we had some Forza topics to discuss, and a ton of car news to cover, including new cars from Koenigsegg, Bentley, McLaren, Bugatti, Hennessey, Dodge, Honda, and more, as well a new Ford engine, and much more. The boys also have some interesting Forza news too: some pers...

On episode 6 of the Forza World Podcast, we recap our insane race weekend at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park and yet another baffling Porsche Cars & Coffee! A special thank you goes out to IMSA, CTMP, and especially the 🐐 Sam Fellows for hooking us up - we can't wait to do more with the track in the coming months. We also sat in a 2 million-dollar Porsche Carrera, somehow. At 20:50, we get into the Forza talk about this upcoming Forza Horizon Hot Wheels pack. The boys had a few i...

On episode 4 of the Forza World Podcast, we introduce the third member of the show, Andrew! He gives us an introduction of himself and his recent car mods, as well as some sunburn and golf talk. The trio discuss the massive news in the Forza universe with the announcement of the Forza Horizon 5 Hot Wheels Expansion, as well as new details and media for the Forza Motorsport reboot. There is also some comparison of the two trailers for these announcements, and how different the approach is betw...

On this episode, the boys get off-topic immediately with some complaints about squirrels (they stink). We recap our time at Porsche of London Cars & Coffee, which had some incredible variety. The F8 Tributo is now available for unlock in Forza Horizon 5, but Aren has a very fair bone to pick as far as the limited and lame colour options available in-game. This leads to some interesting discussion about what limitations might exist for the developers, as well as some limitations and quirks...

It only took us 10 years, but we're excited to finally share our podcast with you. It's going to be a weekly show, where we discuss all things Forza Horizon, Formula 1, motorsport, and cars in general. We've got some fun segments planned, lots of video content, and we'll be attending events like the Canadian Grand Prix in Montreal and the IMSA Chevrolet Grand Prix at Mosport. Perhaps most importantly, you'll be getting our unfiltered, authentic, and genuine reactions. And yep - it'll probably...
