Forza Horizon 4 Takes Open World Racing to Britain

Microsoft has announced Forza Horizon 4 at E3 2018.

Launching worldwide on October 2, 2018 on Xbox One, Windows 10, and Xbox Game Pass, Forza Horizon 4 will have virtual racers experiencing historic Britain spectacular native 4K and HDR. One of the major new features heading to Forza Horizon 4 is dynamic seasons that change every week. With each season, the open-world map will actually transform, opening access to certain areas that were previously inaccessible due to certain weather conditions.

The game will feature over 450 cars and promises more choice and customization than ever before.

Like previous games in the Forza Horizon franchise, the latest installment focuses on an open-world experience with two new fan-requested features. First, there’s a brand new Route Creator that lets players design and share their own custom race routes anywhere in the open world, as well as the option to play at 60 fps for players on Xbox One X.

Players will also have the ability to own property that unlocks new items and gameplay perks, a first for the franchise.

None other than the McLaren Senna will serve as the cover car for Forza Horizon 4, continuing the game’s partnership with McLaren. A 1997 Land Rover Defender 90 will also be showcased on the cover, paying tribute to the British icon.

2018 Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster Review

“Supercars just don’t excite me anymore.” These words, spoken to me over a month ago by another journalist, friend, and (so-called) enthusiast were echoing in my head for far too long, but they’ve finally been drowned out. Drowned out by the wail of a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine mounted in the middle of the new Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster. My friend’s point is that back in the good old days, there was a crop of supercars that captured the imagination with amazing style, sounds, performance, and more. Today, it seems like everything is capable of supercar performance, with large luxury sedans outdoing some of the best and most dedicated teams of car nuts, while former pillars of automotive excellence are suddenly pumping out family-friendly SUVs. Beyond that, another league of supercars, dubbed hypercars have cropped up with hybrid gas-electric powertrains that make magical things happen quickly, but at the cost of the acoustic drama, visual flair, and engag...

Project SportWagen: Going Stage 2 with APR

    When we last left you, the humble little SportWagen was fresh from the development process with our friends at AWE Tuning, sporting a new downpipe, exhaust and intake, allowing things to breathe a bit easier.  The car sounded great, but there was no getting around the fact that our wagon was still quite, well, slow.   While we realize that nothing we do to the Golf SportWagen at this point will make it a race car, we still felt compelled to do something .  To put it bluntly, we had a fever, and the only cure was more power. Flash forward a few hours, and we found ourselves at Waterfest, staring down APR’s palatial spread and the numerous tuned vehicles surrounding it.  Earlier in the year, APR had hinted to us that their 1.8 TSI files would be quite impressive, and based on what they were able to do with the 2.0 TSI found in the new GTI and our time in their Golf R, we knew it’d be worth the wait.  So with this in mind, we lined our G...

Project Golf SportWagen- Intro

I’ve never really been one for SUVs and crossovers.  The current offerings aren’t the body-on-frame, go-anywhere specialty tools I remember from my youth, and what they lack in capability, they also lack in on-road performance. The current crop isn’t terribly good at handling or being efficient, which in my opinion are major components of our ideal driving experience.  So when it comes to space or utility, I usually look for something of the wagon variety- and it seems that I’m not alone. We hit quite a few shows around the east coast each summer, and we see modified Jetta SportWagens at nearly every event. Even amongst common consumers, these cars are highly sought-after. They don’t depreciate much, making even early Mk 5 2.5 versions expensive in comparison to other Jettas or Golfs of the same vintage. This year, Volkswagen launched their latest SportWagen, which is now billed as a Golf.  In many ways, this latest SportWagen is the best yet and it has certai...
