Sure it is, if you like it. Will you like it? Hard to say but if you like NFS I reckon ther'es a better than average chance you will.

This Forza, yes.

Buy the big BS edition or youll feel like you're missing half the cars.

This is in every aspect, an infinitely better NFS game.
Kinda, though don`t expect the same sense of speed of this as you get in NFS, but the game is similarly arcady when it comes to its physics. Don`t expect much multiplayer, the map is bigger than FH4 with less players..you will often be doing the "team" events on your own.

NFS campaigns, in the past, have had decent stories, actors, etc. Forza doesn't do that very well. No cops.

That said Forza does everything else better. Physics, car collection, visuals. It's a much better openworld car game imo.
yeah..i tried to play some NFS games..and the car handling is just so 1980's, it's so bad like playing outrun or mario cart or something.

Forza have done a really good job with the car handling/physics.

I now have to query if you have ever actually driven a car if you think Forza is a good job when it comes to handling/physics. The physics isn`t even a BAD joke, I own an RX7 if it started handling like it does in Forza i`d have it back to the manufacturer to find out how exactly I had broken the chassis immediately.

should I have pre-qualified my comment "in the context of computer games"?

My bad.

Go play F1 simulator if you want realism and also get bored very very fast with very very fast cars.

This is a great game as an arcade racer. Reminds me a lot of old NFS like Underground 2 and before.
Interestingly enough, it reminds me of POD, which is completely different in theme but its execution is quite similar.

As a fun racer, this checks a lot of boxes.
Graphically is gorgeous too.

Someone should come up with a system where people could leave there opinions and you could read them and know about the game. Then they should have a system that consolidates that information into a score, like positive or negative. Of course it would only work if people can read.
don't buy, you can't start a new game in this crap play model

If you can get it on sale, definitely.

Best physics you can find in arcade racer. If you can pull it off in real car, it will work in Forza pretty much same way.
Crazy number and diversity of cars, not just normal sport and supercars, but also things like pre-WW2 track racers, vans, pickups, trophy trucks, even a freaking Warthog from Halo.
Pretty complex upgrade/tunning system to play with, which you can even ignore if you want to, and download tunnings of other players.
In SP AI will adjust their cars to match ewhat you're driving, so upgrading cars is optional

There are issues with game, which might be be non-issue depending how important those things are for you:
Primitive AI that just follows driveline and rubbebands around player.
Balance in MP is kinda trash. There's clear meta to follow if you want to win races.
There's no SP campaign to speak off. It's just races, and even "stories" are just custom races with cringe cutscenes.
Ah yeah, the cringe. Boring dialogues and fake hype overload makes you want to punch screen, because cutscenes are unskippable

The Crew 2 is much more arcadey, which I enjoy greatly. Almost feels like Burnout, and the tracks for street- and hypercars are, at least for me, more interesting.
