LO1 Review Analysis Forza 5

This review uses second person to address the reader, this gives the effect that the reviewer is talking directly to the reader and allows the reader to be more entrained in the review.

Superficially speaking Forza 5 is just looking to turn us on before we even turn a key, but once you're inside it's instantly clear that Forza 5 is here to accelerate Forza's transition from a series that simply features cars to one that truly celebrates them. The cars here aren't just thumbnails in a scrolling menu; every one has a history and a reason to admire it. Forza 5 clearly wants to be the defining cocktail of global cae culture and it's philosophy that extends from Clarkson's slightly wistful opening montage to deep within the guts of career mode. Thanks to a well-chosen bunch of unprecedentedly lavisg car models and the help of all three hosts of the UK's Top Gear, Forza 5 is a virtual love letter to every vehicle it contains. And while the overall track count teeters on the wrong side of thin and the lack of dynamic time or weather  stings, it's one that's the technically very hard to fault.

Based on the review I would not buy this game because...
