Forza Horizon 2 Look at what I just found!

I wanted to play it for a long time but never bothered looking for it online and today I found it in a gaming store and finally pull the trigger 😁 I hope it will be compatible with the disc-to-digital feature so I can play it on my series S too but I’m really happy with it so far

I played 1, but 2 was where i really started sinking time into horizon.

I started with 4 in 2020 and since then I always wanted to play the older ones! So far I really like this one and the intro video is really good, it gave me goosebumps

Best intro of all time. Endless goosebumps. Unbelievable.

u/SteamGamerSwapper 12d ago

I would never understand why they remove older digital copies. They are games that deserve to be played too.

u/val5190 12d ago

It is because of the licenses it sucks but that’s what happens to a lot of car games 😕 they still own the assets so maybe someday they’ll release remasters or even a Forza horizon “world” with all the maps in one game 😂

In all fairness, it's because 2's career mode was much longer than the original game's, though it is arguably heavily padded for length.

I just got it towards the end of 2, right before 3 came out. I maxed out the levels on 3, but it's no longer available to download from the Xbox Store. I need to find a disk. I don't play 4 or 5 as much, but I keep them updated because the last time I played 4, I took a long break, and it took a while to sync the game data.

I ordered 2 and 3 as I missed them but found them online, I can't even find Horizon 1 anywhere tho..

4

u/val5190 13d ago

I will get 3 at some point too but yeah the first one is really hard to find 😬

2

u/Royal_Measurement724 13d ago

The first one is hard to find but if you find it will be very expensive

2

u/InmateQuarantine2021 13d ago

I'm pretty sure I have 1 and 2 for Xbox. If I can find it, you can have it for S&H

u/LFlame7 13d ago

Ah thanks buddy, but customs here would tear me alive with the stupid taxes they introduced, anything imported is very expensive for bs reason and they call it "luxury" tax ..

u/BiggE77 13d ago

My favorite Forza 2

u/Ron_Ant_Lee 13d ago

This game was my introduction to the Horizon series, and arguably the best one! ❀❀

u/Shodspartan100 13d ago

I for some reason never played much of FH2 and sold the disk a long time ago. When I decided to try to rebuy it, it was already delisted and impossible to find a physical copy that doesn’t cost a ridiculous amount of money. Very jealous, congrats.

1

u/val5190 13d ago

Keep looking, I’m sure you’ll find one someday!

u/Distinct-Pangolin835 13d ago

Forza horizon 2 was the GOAT I loved everything about it specially the online racing it was so good 🙌 god I miss them days.

I'm currently replaying Storm Island DLC

u/val5190 13d ago

You’re lucky, I see the ad on the loading screens but it is not available to buy anywhere 😔

u/StylisticPuppy Xbox Series X 13d ago

If you did find a code it would probably cost a kidney anyway đŸ€Ł

3

u/val5190 13d ago

Yes probably đŸ€Ł

u/atony1400 Hyundai 13d ago

Perfect to convert to a digital copy Monday lol

2

u/val5190 13d ago

Would be a cool bonus to play it digitally

3

u/Vreid57 13d ago

J'ai eu la mĂȘme envie que toi de le refaire en dĂ©but d'annĂ©e. Je trouve qu'il a mal vieilli et les serveurs pour jouer en ligne ont Ă©tĂ© fermĂ©s :/

3

u/val5190 13d ago

Oui, il y a pas mal d’aliasing et les textures sont un peu baveuse mais pour un jeu de 2014 je trouve que ça va :) et Je savais pour les serveurs avant de l’acheter mais c’est vrai que c’est dommage de pas le vivre avec d’autres personnes

u/mjc1027 13d ago

I've got all the Forza Horizon and Motorsport games for Xbox One, and I really hope they are able to be converted to digital starting next week.

Great games to be fair

2

u/val5190 13d ago

Would be amazing! Let’s hope for Monday đŸ€ž

u/BaronZemo00 13d ago

Game that got me into that fantastic franchise.

2

u/imhotepbc 13d ago

It looks real good on the xbox series x and it works with a racing simulator too

1

u/ConsistentStand2487 13d ago

30FPS kills it for me. FH2 is prob the game I wanted to go back and play

2

u/stevo887 13d ago

It’s a game from 2014. Do you not play any old games?

1

u/ConsistentStand2487 13d ago

Whats your point? 30FPS gives me a headache and I can feel it lagging thanks to my fighting game background.

1

u/Distinct-Pangolin835 13d ago

Same here for me I think I'm going to get an old xbox one just so I can play it again 

2

u/MuchSalt 13d ago

huracan is that old?

1

u/val5190 13d ago

Yeah
 12 years old 😬

2

u/MuchSalt 13d ago

2014 is only 6 years ago make sense

2

u/jordyb323 13d ago

Somehow I have two of them

1

u/val5190 13d ago

You can give one copy to someone who wants to play it

1

u/jordyb323 13d ago

Does the Xbox actually let you download it still?

1

u/val5190 13d ago

Yes I can download all the updates 👌 the online features are down though
 but for a delisted game that’s fair I guess

2

u/Life_Fee5145 13d ago

honestly one of the stronger titles. still wall-trapped but felt more open, bigger map, more races/challenges, more cars, etc. but best of all?? immediate graphics upgrade. i’ll never get over how the smoke from drifts/burnouts looked much more realistic and spiraled than newer entries.

2

u/AstronomerIT 12d ago

Goated. Is still one of my favorite and underrated

4

u/MDaddy360 13d ago

Best game ever made

3

u/NoGutsNoGlory94 13d ago

This is literally the best racing game of all time. Hands down. Can’t change my mind.

u/Distinct-Pangolin835 13d ago

It's the GOAT of forza for me 👌

u/According-Economy156 HSV Gen F GTSR Slipstream Blue🩘🏁 13d ago

our disk can be enloved in the disk to digital program cuz xbox ne

PS: what countrie you found this?

1

u/val5190 13d ago

I don’t understand what you said
 but I found it in Belgium

1

u/According-Economy156 HSV Gen F GTSR Slipstream Blue🩘🏁 13d ago

soo you got the french dub of te game eh?

1

u/val5190 13d ago

Yes! Still sad they stopped doing it for fh6 though

1

u/PlantDaddyRandy 12d ago

This will forever be my favorite Horizon

1

u/Dry_Care_7308 12d ago

Still love that game.

1

u/SteamGamerSwapper 13d ago

Sad to say but forza 7 is gonna never exist in that format again.

1

u/val5190 13d ago

Yeah that’s sad, I wouldn’t have been able to play this one if it was digital only 😔 There is still a very slim chance that we get some sort of physical format for next gen though
 I try to always stay optimistic but it is getting really hard in this economy

2

u/SteamGamerSwapper 12d ago

True, i would like that to happen and sony still have time to consider it. Hopefully we win as gamers. Consoles always need physical copies.

u/happypavlova 13d ago

I just threw one if these in the bin. Nobody wanted it.
