Forza Horizon in 2023 - 4K, 60FPS Enhanced, Xenia [Core i9, RTX 3070, 4K, 60 FPS]
5Forza Horizon was originally released on the XBOX 360 in the year 2012. I'm playing it now via the Xenia emulator and at a sharper and smoother 4K 2160p resolution, 60 frames per second. This gameplay is truly rendered at 4K 2160p with my current settings. It is not like other videos out there using 1440p gameplay videos and settings claiming to be 4K resolution. This is what an unofficial remaster patch could look like. To make things even more naughty I'm playing the game with a Sony DualSense PS5 controller. That might make some people feel dirty playing an XBOX exclusive with a Sony peripheral. It makes me feel Phresh though!
The game is not available as a digital download on the XBOX Marketplace. If you happen to own the disc version like I do, you can actually play it on the XBOX Series X with backwards compatibility enabled and it will run the game at 4K, 30 FPS. I absolutely need to play games at 60 FPS or higher though. Xenia does not run the game perfectly as there are some graphical glitches like incorrect car shadows, and sometimes flickering texture colors. You can press the F5 key on the keyboard to remedy those issues most of the time.
Forza Horizon is an action racing game set on the epic open roads of Colorado with a thrilling music festival backdrop. Combining stunning graphics and cutting-edge music with legendary Forza authenticity and a superb collection of cars to drive, Forza Horizon is an open-world automotive playground that puts a spotlight on speed, style, and the freedom of the open road. This is where cars belong!
Forza Horizon was developed by Playground Games and published by Microsoft Studios for the Xbox 360 on 23 October 2012. Borrowing from the formula of the game called Test Drive Unlimited, Forza Horizon was created. The game is the fifth installment of the Forza series, having originally spun-off from Turn 10 Studios' Forza Motorsport series. Taking place during the fictitious Horizon Festival, a street racing event, the player's aim is to progress via winning races, while also increasing their popularity level by performing stunts and activities. Unlike previous games in the Forza series, Forza Horizon takes place in an open-world that players can explore.
Upon its release, Forza Horizon received critical acclaim. It has since spawned its own series, with four additional sequels to date: Forza Horizon 2 in 2014, Forza Horizon 3 in 2016, Forza Horizon 4 in 2018, and Forza Horizon 5 in 2021. The game was delisted from the Xbox 360 Marketplace on October 20, 2016, following the expiration of its car branding licenses.
Forza Horizon features an updated version of the Forza Motorsport 4 engine. Here a Ferrari F40 races a biplane in a point-to-point race.
Forza Horizon focuses specifically on casual street racing, rather than professionally on race tracks, as it takes place on a map of temporarily closed public roads. The open-world map that players can explore is based on the U.S. state of Colorado. It features multiple types of races, such as drifting competitions, off-road rally, and traditional point-to-point races. The roads feature both AI traffic and, when playing online, other player-controlled drivers. Players may challenge the other racers they encounter to a one-on-one race to a given location. The races start at the current location, and finish at a randomly generated way-point, usually more than 500 metres away from the player and their opponent. A skill system is implemented in the game; players earn popularity during races by driving aggressively. Acts such as drifting, jumping over obstacles and getting a car on two wheels all contribute to the player's popularity level. These can be chained together in a combo, which in turn affects the money players are paid at the end of a given race. As a player's popularity level increases new special events are unlocked, such as races against helicopters and planes.
