More cars have been added to the growing list of names for the upcoming Xbox One exclusive title Forza Motorsport 5. This week they’re shining their spotlight on the Lamborghini Aventador, Audi R8 V10 Plus, (2009) MINI Cooper JCW and the BMW 1-Series M Coupe .
I noticed in some comments posted underneath our older stories , that not only is the list thought of as being a tad short and repeating some Forza 4 names, but some would also like to see more mainstream cars included – ones they can relate to for a change.
Sure, driving the really hot exotic supercars and hypercars in the virtual world against your friends is unquestionably fun, and the new Forza does cater for those who are into that, but there’s just something unique about seeing the cars you’re more intimately familiar with expertly recreated in 3D, and trying them out to see what they can actually do.
I know it may sound crazy to ask for fewer supercars, but if it gets the game sold, then why not. Putting in lots of family hatchbacks, sedans and cheap, plentiful and common cars definitely did the trick for the Gran Turismo franchise, and Forza doing the same to a greater extent would not be met with negativity from the supporting community of players.
Check out the updated list below, which unlike the official one, is alphabetically ordered for much improved viewing convenience. All new cars are in bold.
