Forza Motorsport 7 reviews round-up, all the scores
Forza Motorsport 7 is out this week - how does the latest instalment in Microsoft's long-running motorsport franchise shape up?
With the recent success of Project Cars 2, and the first PS4 iteration of Sony's Gran Turismo franchise right around the corner, Forza 7 has a lot to prove. The series has always been reliable, and last year's Forza Horizon 3 was fantastic, so hopes have been high.
The game is also one of the cornerstones of Microsoft's marketing strategy for the upcoming Xbox One X; they've made the bold claim that the Forza experience on their new console will be in line with what you would see on a multi-thousand dollar PC.
The game attracted some controversy before launch, though, with a 50GB day-one patch and some major pre-load issues on the PC version.
So far, reviews have been very positive (including the 'in progress' reviews several sites are currently running), although a few have noted room for improvement.
- Windows Central - 10/10
- MS Power User - 10/10

- Attack of the Fanboy - 9/10
- Shack News - 6/10
- Ars Technica - Unscored ("It feels like a Greatest Hits of the franchise, but there are a few misses on the way")
- Eurogamer - In progress ("This is the driving game for everyone, and when it comes to approachability, consistency and polish, nothing else comes close")
- Polygon - In-Progress
- GameSpot - In-Progress
