With a 9th birthday looming for our son, I’m thinking on an Xbox driving game. Now on the basis that there have been quite a few hours spent gaming over the last week, I’d love to hear opinions on which game to go for? Ta!!

Forza horizon 3 is a cracker. Loads of different cars, different terrain, different achievements I.e races, time trails, jumps, speed traps, drift sections plus loads of online games. Or you can just drive round messing about. Can’t get Ticsmon jr off it. He’s just got the hot wheels expansion pack for Christmas. Sure it’s only 20 quid on the Xbox store at the minute.

Forza horizon 3

… is the right answer.

What they said with bells on.

My boys are loving Forza Horizon 3, *but* bear in mind you can’t have a local multi-player game on it. When I was a kid, two player driving games were the bee’s knees, but there’s no split screen action with Forza Horizon 3. Sure, you can play online with others, but my Christmas has been ruined* by not being able to race my son side-by-side on the sofa.

*possibly an exageration

Sure you can. Get yourself an Xbox too. (-:

Thanks all.

For £20 you can get this:

It’s last year’s version but it’s still very, very good.

Couldn’t tear yourself away, eh?

*full disclosure, I have spent more (both in money and time) on video games than bikes in the last quarter of last year. Video games are still winning in 2018 so far too…
