Not big into racing games, but FH6 is making me interested. Last racing game I really got into was burnout paradise on the PS3 I think. I don’t care about online at all, this would pretty much be solo story play, and exploring Tokyo.

I just don’t know much about forza, the different editions, if I’d like the controls. Is horizon more like burnout or NFS, or more sim racing?

    forzas do work offline, but since they handle connections, online features won’t, there’s no p2p

      True but for FH3+ they were further integrated with the Xbox login and I don’t think you can try them without an actual account and login. I did emulate and run FH1+2 and they were perfectly playable as off SP games with no strings attached

        didn’t you need to create an account since at least the 360?
        or the difference is that you didn’t need to do it online there?
        also did you use xenia? has it come that far? or something else

          Yes, I believe it was xenia. Iirc I did have to create an account, but in the emulator, and then it acted as a wrapper and logged me in automatically when running the game. Sadly I was not offline to test if it also works like that, but I imagine it does, since it was a “fake” and not actually connected to xbox.
