While the actual 3D models used for each car are truly beautiful and highly accurate, we found each and every stock car we drove had a 0-60 time of several seconds longer than its real-life counterpart. Unlike games devoted to one particular type of racing, where we’ve found realism second-to-none, Forza 4 falls short when it comes to car realism. After all, with a 0-60 time of under 4 seconds and phenomenal handling, the Tesla Roadster has long been the token electric car in racing games.īut in Forza 4, other plug-in cars like the 2012 Nissan Leaf and 2012 Chevrolet Volt put an appearance beside cars like the 2012 Bugatti Veyron, while other green, high-mileage cars, like the 2012 Chevrolet Spark and 2012 Honda Fit Sport are represented alongside the 2012 Toyota Prius.Īs for the 2011 Tesla Roadster? It’s there too - but only available as part of a downloadable add-on pack from the XBox 360 marketplace or as part of the limited-edition collector’s version of the game. Released earlier this month, it offers a huge range of over 80 different cars from around the world, as well as a huge collection of faithfully replicated raceways, drag strips and circuits to race them on.Īrmed with a suitable beverage, a high-definition television and our XBox 360, we set out to do some of the most surreal test-driving we’ve ever done.įor several years now, we’ve seen the iconic Tesla Roadster get represented on racing games. Forza Motorsport 4 is just the latest title to do just that.
