Forza Horizon 6 requirements are out

https://sh.itjust.works/post/57408601

Now I wanna know where an Xbox Series X lands in those requirements. All I know is it has 16GB of RAM. I don’t know where its CPU and GPU fall, though.

I probably won’t buy the game. It looks fun, but I never got much into the Forza Horizon games. I think they are worth playing, but I’m real picky about driving games. I played a bit of Horizon 5 because I had GamePass at the time. When it was $15, it made sense. Since it’s doubled, it no longer does. Maybe if they let you keep a game every 1-3 months, I could see it, but without ever owning any of the games… nah.

FH1 was absolutely brilliant. Compared with a racing wheel, it genuinely felt like the Forza Motorsport series had been let loose, literally.

Each subsequent FH release has just been… cool, I guess? The next four iterations weren’t really groundbreaking and it felt like map packs than new games.

The soundtrack has consistently been absolutely banging though

While the set list is great it annoys the hell out of me just how much they censor the songs. I understand taking out actual curse words considering the rating (but then why choose that song to begin with) however in 4 they started censoring more than just that. They censored god in the line “play out playing god” and high in “I’m flying high, on the wings of a wasted life” just as a couple examples and there’s plenty more.

Haha I remember in 3 the Chvrches song ’Never say die’ has the titular ‘die’ quietened out all through the song

It weird, why include the song itself if you’re gonna censor out part of its title line anyway

Same word, different situation entirely, but I’ve long been used that the radio edit for Panic at the Disco’s I Write Sins… Was always “haven’t you people ever heard of, closing the g*d damn door”
