The simple auto-tuning setup, designed specifically for people like me who have no interest in tinkering with their vehicles but still want their carвЂ™s performance optimized, also makes a return. If you donвЂ™t want to constantly jump back and forth between the gameвЂ™s world and expansive map screen, Anna is a great alternative, especially if you want a clear GPS path to the gameвЂ™s nearest event. The gameвЂ™s Siri-like voice companion Anna, controlled by saying commands via the Xbox OneвЂ™s Kinect, actually works surprisingly great. On paper this sounds ridiculous but itвЂ™s actually a refreshingly interesting twist to the way racing titles usually handle side tasks. Forza Horizon 2 features new вЂњShowcase challengesвЂќ which task players with racing against trains and airplanes. While not exactly groundbreaking, perks add yet another level of dpethВ to an already very customizable game. This allows you to be more creative with your driving route, cutting corners and hunting down simple short cuts, as long as you still drive through the gameвЂ™s next check-point. Cars are no longer confined to streets by guardrails and cement walls, although there are certain sections of the map that are blocked off. In general, Forza Horizon 2вЂ™s map is significantly more open than the first Forza HorizonвЂ™s. Off-road racing is difficult, especially if youвЂ™re moving from a traditional circuit race, and I found myself frequently finishing somewhere between 6th and 4th when leaving the comfortable confines of pavement, but itвЂ™s still a lot of fun.

Forza Horizon 2 features point-to-point races, various kinds of rally circuits and also has a variety of off-road vehicles, ranging from cars like the 2013 Ram Runner to theВ 2006 HUMMER H1 Alpha. Speaking of off-road racing, the inclusion of off-road vehicles marks a welcome shift in direction for the series. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.
