Forza Street

Forza Street is the latest entry in the Forza series and it brings players back on the racing tracks of muscle cars so they ca see who's the fastest driver around. Sporting the unconventional mouse-controlled way of driving your car, this title will surely come as either a breath of fresh air, or a headache to fans of the franchise, or genre as a whole.

The latest entry in the franchise brings graphics that would probably be expected in big-budget titles with shaders, textures, reflections and lighting being describable only as "breathtaking". More so, the hyper-realistic graphics are further enhanced by the cinematic feel provided by the dynamic camera, although some of you may find it confusing and maybe even annoying at times. The fact that the game is filled with recognizable cars from even more recognizable manufacturers will get car enthusiasts all giddy and excited.

Thankfully, the ever-switching camera angle does not hinder your gameplay too much since you don't actually have to do any steering in Forza Street, instead you only control the accelerations and the brakes. If you've ever played dancing games before where you had to press certain buttons at certain moments for optimum efficiency, then you're pretty much an expert Forza Street player as well. You have to know when to press the sags and when to apply the brakes precisely when the car reached color-coded areas, which are usually placed in corners where realistically it would indeed be a good idea to start hitting the brakes.

Forza Street may be a bit confusing for some, for for the few that will get used to the new gameplay, you might fall in love with the racing matches that feel more like Hollywood movies half of the times.
