It’s been developed by The Creative Assembly and 343 Industries as opposed to Ensemble Studios.
The Halo Wars series has been pulling it off somehow but Halo Wars 2 is a different beast. It’s hard to sell someone on a real-time strategy game for consoles. Combine this with detailed car customization options, excellent presentation and the ability to tailor the difficulty to your liking, and Forza Motorsport 7 stands out as one of the best racing simulators on Xbox One. The divisions restricted you to a particular class while the open series allowed for greater diversity in selection. The Forza Driver’s Cup was the campaign mode this time and it offered the usual range of showcase events, races and challenges. It took everything we loved about the series – the wide selection of beautifully rendered cars and tight track design – and added dynamic weather for surprisingly competitive results. Loot box controversy and VIP bonuses notwithstanding, Turn 10 Studios’ Forza Motorsport was yet another awesome racing simulator. Let’s take a look at the Best Xbox One Games of 2017. However, despite a limited selection, the year still had a few great games that could only be played on Xbox One (at least for those without PCs).
The fact that titles like Fable Legends and Scalebound were cancelled and Crackdown 3 was delayed didn’t help Microsoft’s case either. It’s been said plenty of times but bears repeating – this year was pretty sparse for Xbox One exclusives.
