Quick Look: Forza Horizon 2 Presents Fast & Furious

Cars and Diesel. Vin Diesel.

videogames!

The hot collabo we've all been waiting for.

Does this mean Forza Horizon is now part of the Fast & Furious canon? An extremely important question.

I didn't watch the video yet but I got really excited when I saw this because it's current;y free on Xbox One and I have never played a Forza game before, maybe this will get me into a new series!

I live my life one quick look at a time

The fact that Jeff isn't on this doesn't feel right.

Dillon Francis & DJ Snake-Get Low. Not the worst choice for BGM

Thought this was gonna be a Jeff joint...hope Alex gives this a fair chance.

seems like he does

vroom, vroom!

That drop was so weak. Everyone knows you have to be able to smell it.

lmao vinny and alex is such a good combo for driving games.

surprise bonus: alex doesnt suck at driving games so this isn't frustrating to watch

it's not about cars, it's about family

When you combine the two, you get ca-. Aw you didn't give me a chance to guess!

If you haven't played Forza Horizon 2 yet, I'd check this review on top of Giant Bomb's.

I hope this quicklook will be Fur7ous

Does anyone know which game Vinny was talking about?

Edit: never mind; it was Wheelman!

Vinny, the game is Wheelman! That game was actually pretty fun, it had a really silly mechanic where you use the right analog stick to slam into other cars like some sort of pinball bumper.

Also, does anyone else feel like a douche for assuming every recent movie in the series was shit? I haven't watched one since Tokyo Drift, and my arrogant brain just assumed "pffft they're just pumping out sequels for money, typical..." but once Alex mentioned that the last few are good, I looked them up on Rotten Tomatoes and the last 2 or 3 have like 60-75% approval on there!

Vinny is damn near manic in this one

what. But Jeff plays the Forza games and is a fan of Fast & Furious movies, would of love this to be a gb west ql...

Diesel for the Vin!

@ilikepopcans: I also play all the Forza games and love the Fast & Furious movies. So...?

I beat this earlier this morning, it's not bad esp. cause it's free. Little limited in scope and cars, but again, it's free right now. Good way to check out a Horizon game if you haven't before.

edit: Much better looking on XOne and the 360

Oh yeah, this is the Giant Bomb I've missed.
Need that vitamin V.

@vinny@alex You can sleep soundly, knowing that XJoker San x is a real gamer, indeed.

I'm quite sure that old-ass European city streets like those in Nice do not fit three cars side by side in a single lane =)

Good lord, @alex referring to the Drivitars as "'tars" is maybe the worst thing ever. Simultaneously hilarious and disgusting.

Looking forward to a Vinny Diesel and Alex quick look.

Soundtrack playing backwards is a really great bug

Fuck yeah more Forza

Ah yes, Vin Diesel's Wheelman, with the forgotten airjacking mechanic that everyone gives credit to Sleeping Dogs for.

Just Cause and Pursuit Force find your comment quite ironic.

@billyok: Pursuit Force! Man it has been a while since I thought about PSP games. Remember the Syphon Filter game for PSP? I think it was called Dark Mirror or something equally generic. Great game.

Turns out Furious Forza is something I can get behind.

What Vinny was talking about is the Winter City Burning Lap in Burnout 3: Takedown. However, that's not the exact name of the race. It is also in Burnout Legends on PSP. It was by far the hardest challenge in the game but once you manage to make it, the other Burning Laps became a walk in the park.

I thought this would have been a jeff affair.

I despise people who take potshots at the editors, yet still I have to say that this quick look had Jeff written all over it. Just feels wrong like this...

If you like Racing games, you owe it to yourself to give Forza a try. I've been a fan since the first game on the original Xbox. Hope you dig it. :)

This makes me miss Road Rash. Whip some chains out the window Dog!!!

Multi-million dollar idea: Lego The Fast and The Furious

RIP Screened.

That Supra should be orange with sick vinyls of an arm and some green shit. Come on Forza.

give this man a bag of money

The true order of F+F film quality, best to worst, is 3 then 1 / 2 / 5 / 6 (reorder these as you like) then 4.
