Best Forza Games ?
So given my age, I'm not ashamed to say that I haven't played video games since the days that you walked into an arcade and put a quarter into a machine.
We did our Christmas shopping early and I got an Xbox One with the steering wheel and pedals, and my son chose the Forza 3 game. I think a driving video game is the only game type that would appeal to me. Are there any Forza games that simulate some F1 tracks or other famous racetracks ?. I know nothing about video games, and my son knows nothing about car racing series. So what's your favourite Forza game or any other car racing game that works on Xbox One ?

i could justify playing a driving video game on the premise that it keeps you in tune when the s2000 is parked for the winter. So, you can really get your driving thrills with iRacing. Its an online, PC based game where you race against other adults- or those with real names (no one has an alias) and credit cards. You will race real tracks. its as close to the real deal as you'll get.
check it out. I didn't answer your question now that i think about it.

The notion that video game systems these days are for children is laughable. I don't know many kids that have a grand laying around for a playstation VR kit. The target audience for video game systems are males in the 20's and 30's.
Cell phone app games are the ones built for kids.
I play neither, so good luck.

don't be ashamed. Its because you're an ADULT. kids play video games, no? I played many, many. many weekends at the arcades in town- misspent youth- but I grew up and went to school for lots of years. i just had this conversation with April this evening. sure, i'm always amazed by the graphics, and game play, but who has the time? I've got leaves to pick up, paint to wax, a kitchen to paint, an engine to rebuild (GTX), etc, etc, etc. That being said, I really don't care what all you video game fans do with your spare time- it's your time- do with it as you will. But i digress...

We've got PS4 too, we don't have the Gran Turismo game though. I'll check it out too.

Having been with the Forza franchise since day one, I can hands down say that Forza 4 have been my favorite in terms of the "simcade" franchise. It's a real shame nothing before Forza 5 is backwards compatible with the Xbox One, as 5 was a horrible rushed mess released to coincide with the new console. Forza 6 is the best you're going to get right now, which is still great fun, especially with the addition of night races and rain. The track and car selection could still use a bit of work, but obviously that's subjective.
If you're looking for something with a more arcade feel, then Forza Horizon 3 is your go to without a doubt.
