Spin-Offs That Were Better Than the Mainline Games

The Horizon series started off as a simple one-off for the Forza Motorsport franchise but ended up being a staple in the racing world, bringing open-world gameplay to the franchise for the first time. You can go off-rails and drive off the path given to you, letting you relax and drive around the beautiful landscapes that Australia has to offer. There’s also secrets to find, tons of cars to purchase, and a glorious map that will surely draw your attention.

While Motorsport is a fantastic sim-like racer, Horizon 3 feels like a more complete game with loads of things to do, while also looking extremely pretty and enjoyable to play. The lush sandbox that Playground Games managed to conjure up is a feat for the car racing series and revolutionized the Forza series.
