Forza Horizon 5 Coming to PlayStation 5: April 29

Thanks. Another PS5 sim racing game I refuse to play then.

I guess if it's a deal-breaker for every racing game then should you perhaps consider that you have bought the wrong gaming platform?

I'm looking forward to giving it a try.

No, I love GT7 on VR. It broke the mold for every other sim racing game. If its not PSVR2 then I’ll just wait.

There's no official VR support for the game on any platform, so the PS5 isn't missing out. It's also not a sim racer.

It has cars you drive around, right? https://forza.net/ Looks like a sim racing game to me.

So does Mario Kart.

Yes, you drive around racing against others in a virtual world. Simulator racing.

The greatest and best-selling sim racer of all time

And the VR add-on is even more expensive than PSVR2...

Simulation: the imitative representation of the functioning of one system or process by means of the functioning of another (Merriam-Webster)
All driving games are simulations of the act of driving, they only differ in how realistic the imitation of such action is.

I do own and operate the most expensive simulation platform there is: An actual car.

I found one of these in my shed the other week. The immersion is real.

Is death in a fireball in one of the cards an option? That would be era-accurate!

No, but your vehicle being eaten by a cat is a very real possibility.

People do drive their actual car like its a simulation.

I am excited abput this game but I will wait to get it on sale.

GT7 didn't 'break the mold' in any way for sim racing titles, and certainly not in terms of VR.

If its not PSVR2 then I’ll just wait.

I predict you are going to have a very, very limited choice (poor me with only 17 odd sims to pick from in VR).

Great news! I‘m going to buy a PS5 Pro later this year and FH5 will definitely be one of my first games for it as I have never played any of the Horizon games before. They always looked pretty cool to me though, a bit like a modern version of the 2005 Test Drive Unlimited. The only comparable game on PS I could think of so far has been The Crew Motorfest.

Judging by his sig I suspect Horizon 5's three divisions of hot hatches would also be a major bone of contention for him.
