Dude for real. Getting home from middle school, tossing my backpack on the ground and playing this with tha boys until my mom yelled at me to do homework
I miss the days of going around for party’s and playing this together. I was tiny, young, didn’t love cars like I did now, I liked them thought cool car and that was it. Now I know my way around %50 a car mechanically. Of course now it FH4 and I still play the games, have a wheel setup, own my dream car before I’m legally able to drive and I’m a HUGE car enthusiast. Times have changed, weird how quick it’s been.
@@Fosten12 oh god this old comment is cringy... But yes but actually no... My dream car is a Eunos Roadster, which is the JDM version of the miata. They look similar but theres many differences.
I was nearly 9 when I got this game I got it for Christmas of 2012 I got super excited cause I loved FM4 and ever since then horizon 1 we'll have a special place in my heart and till this day I have the disc not original one I got from 2012 but a newer one I play it a couple times every now and then and I still love it as it's nearly a decade old already which is sad, and now I'm 18 still love it. Cannot wait for FH5!!!.
Even though I love forza horizon 1 and 2, nothing will beat the sheer immersion and feeling of this game. The soundtrack, the characters, the festival, these were all AMAZING
I'm only 15 years old. I am the lucky owner of the Xbox 360 (yes, in 2024), who does not need more. I first launched this game two years ago, when I was 13. At first it was difficult for me, because I was not used to the gamepad yet. In the process, enjoying these intense races, I learned to play, learning the features of driving different cars. It was a difficult path for me, who was new to console gaming at the time. After passing this game, I realized how many different emotions it brought to me. The bitterness of defeat in a couple of moments from achieving the goal, the joy of hard-won victories, an inspiring and harmonious open world (yes, I'm not picky about graphics), beautiful landscapes and just wonderful music - all this left a big mark on my heart. And now I, already a seasoned gamepad warrior, hear the music from the main menu, I involuntarily smile... Thank you, FH 1. You gave me an unforgettable gaming experience.
@@ManWithNoFear I played this in 2012 for the first time when it came out. I got my licence a few years later. I've been lucky enough to have many experiences with some incredible cars views and friends. Every time I still think of this intro.
Fh2 was the worst one. Now that 4 of them are out, I can say that gameplay wise, 3 and 4 are by far the best. As far as story goes, nothing will beat this game. This may be the most recent game I feel nostalgic for.
I have so many good memories with this game, running down red rock with random people in an online session and all of them were friends in California talking about a bonfire that night and that’s the last time I ever talked to any of them
Horizon 1 will always be my favourite. It was revolutionary at the time, and it's still amazing today. This one has way more character, and is a lot more realistic than the others in the sense of events; and come on, it's the best map by far.
This one had soul. The named characters and rivalries you had with them was what made it feel real. The music, the sound design, and the over saturated color palette all combined to create a vibrant and lively world that you felt like you were a part of.
Same here i almost cried when the old camaro and the gallardo appeared and when scott said the old drivatars names those were such good years of my life
I forgot how much I loved the first game Completely fell in love with it Horizon 2 was a bit meh (the 'cinematic' scene before races killed me every time) Horizon 3 is definitely stronger than 2, and feels more like the proper sequel for 1 But 1 will always be the best
@@randomuser1687 yea, I felt like horizon 2 felt disconnected from fh1, but with fh3 it felt like it was street race-y like fh1. fh2 had more classy and luxury.
Oh my god. This just gave me some serious nostalgia to 2016-2017. I remember in 2016 my mom got me an XBOX ONE kinect, but I insisted on returning it and getting the Xbox 360 E. So I ended up with the Xbox 360E which died a year and a half later due to me always punching the noisy fan.....I think it might've been the disc drive....but either way, it's gone now. I still have the original game disc though.
watching all of the horizon intros since 4 just dropped last week, and man it just makes me think, what a journey it has been. i’ve been an owner of every forza game and to hear and see this is just so nostalgic
I’ve only played FH2-FH5 and Motorsport 3-7. When I logged on to Forza 5 today on my Xbox One and saw the intro with the Viper and heard the music, I knew it was something special and had something to do with FH1. Even though I’ve never experienced it, it felt so nostalgic. Great to see they remastered this intro. Happy 10th Forza Horizon!
I don't know why I am saying this, I mean it feels kinda exaggerated for a videogame after all, but I don't know why but this game in particular had something special: It really reminds me of how early 2010s were: EDM music, tumbrlish filtered selfies on early Instagram with friends and need of freedom that this game expressed fully for me. Just the idea of being in such a big populated racing festival with EDM DJs I love and just beautiful and shiny freedom makes me feel so sad and happy at the same time for having played this masterpiece.
Mega nostalgia listening to this. Sometimes put the soundtrack on and go for a drive to remind me of those days of coming home from school and playing this game
I wish they remastered this game. I know they kinda already did, but i mean better graphics, open world race (so we wouldn’t be stuck on just the road), riding through water, a slightly different map, an ACTUAL story this time, different story on how a nooby looks up to the driver who beat Darius Flynt.
I remember playing this game on the 360 when I was 7..... literally at the time before that I had a Wii and I would play need for speed and when I got my xbox and then forza I'm literally like.....this out does NFS any day,now I play forza horizon 4 and I will love forza and always will
Favorite Racing game on xbox, and my favorite on ps3 is Need for speed hot pursuit (2010). Both amazing open world racing games with a beautiful soundtrack and world.
No matter what others say, I feel that Playground games always manage to make the best game intros in each game. I mean Forza horizon 5 also has an awesome intro that I just don’t want to skip. And this… well this is now just pure nostalgia. The beginning of an amazing festival that hopefully will never end.
i remember spending 2 years of my young life into this game because i didnt want to ever race. i just free roamed for such a long time and it got me money. those were times i would want to re-live again
They should rlly bring back both of those songs back into the new forzas cause i grew up with thoes songs and omfg hearing them just makes me want to get it back
this game has brought so much happiness into my life
Yeah it's so nostalgic. I was like 8-9 when I first played it. It's been about 5 years and just got an xbox one so I'll check if I can play it
for me too ;u;
To me too
Same
this gave me back my childhood times when I was playing this game :,C :,C
Forza Horizon: Press Start
Me: No I don't think I will
So true lmao
At least wasn’t the only one lol I was memorize of the beauty of this world that they created
true
As a very factual matter of fact, I may never press the start button.
I, like you fine gentlemen, agree with a total of 393 people, that the start button shall not be pressed.
One of the greatest game intros I've ever had the privilege of loading up.
i just got my forza horizon disc a month or two ago. I feel blessed to have played a little bit of the game. Haven't finished it yet though haha
Still play fh1 till this day I’ll always love this game started a whole racing genre of gaming for me
Gran Turismo 1, still the best.
I did too and still miss it
No matter how impressive the new Horizons get, this one stays my favorite, and the onr that blew my mind the most.
Most likely cause it was your first
@@DV-ou1yu nope, because the progressive gameplay from OG Forza Horizon is the best
agreed. and i didn’t even own the game 😂 used to play it in my friends house during highschool. perhaps it’s the memories
Yep same
Same it had a late 2000s car culture vibe and true festival atmosphere. Really wish it was on the game pass already
this game could not have possibly been more fun for me. almost teared up watching this
Dude for real. Getting home from middle school, tossing my backpack on the ground and playing this with tha boys until my mom yelled at me to do homework
I mean if we could break the guardrails and go in the plains it would be even better
So true bro. If they ever announce a FH1 remake I’d lose my shit
I’m so glad I’m not alone
Playing horizon 5 and looking back on this series has come so far. Big nostalgia hit from this lol
Welcome back
this is History. Forza will always look back were they first started
Hurricane800 this is there first hotizon.... not first game....
where they first started in forza motorsport
@@twig2892 dont judge him, he is a child
5yrs later they certainly have with the 10th Anniversary celebrations
This intro still gives me chills
I wish this gets remastered for the XBOX One. Literally.
it is way before your comment was posted
It's backwards compatible
We should tell turn 10 and that to make it for the old people that want it back
Bro same here it’s best
It is just download for 💲22.99
Throw back to when it was about car CULTURE and not just the newest supercars.
I miss the days of going around for party’s and playing this together.
I was tiny, young, didn’t love cars like I did now, I liked them thought cool car and that was it. Now I know my way around %50 a car mechanically.
Of course now it FH4 and I still play the games, have a wheel setup, own my dream car before I’m legally able to drive and I’m a HUGE car enthusiast.
Times have changed, weird how quick it’s been.
Whats your dream car bro? Miata?
@@Fosten12 oh god this old comment is cringy...
But yes but actually no...
My dream car is a Eunos Roadster, which is the JDM version of the miata.
They look similar but theres many differences.
Now horizon 5
@@SshiggyY game is good ngl
@@SshiggyY you probably won’t respond to me
Can remember being blown away by this game, what an era. Big up the Porter Robinson, this track unlocks a different level of nostalgia
I was nearly 9 when I got this game I got it for Christmas of 2012 I got super excited cause I loved FM4 and ever since then horizon 1 we'll have a special place in my heart and till this day I have the disc not original one I got from 2012 but a newer one I play it a couple times every now and then and I still love it as it's nearly a decade old already which is sad, and now I'm 18 still love it.

Your intro is eardrum-destroying.
That’s how I like it
i am in tears . this game was my childhood
Happy 10th anniversary Forza Horizon!

My first time was 2014 😢 and I'm still remembering the intro like I watched it yesterday

@@memememine1 glad to hear that
I like this one more than the horizon 2, don't know why, its just more epic.
but has not yet gone 2
The third one that came out a few months ago is just as good in my opinion against the first one. check it out sometime if you haven't.
It's because Horizon 2 didn't have characters like the first one. It just felt.. Soulless.
Fh2 was the worst one. Now that 4 of them are out, I can say that gameplay wise, 3 and 4 are by far the best. As far as story goes, nothing will beat this game. This may be the most recent game I feel nostalgic for.
Brothekid10 heavily agree. EXCEPT FH2s sounds.
I have so many good memories with this game, running down red rock with random people in an online session and all of them were friends in California talking about a bonfire that night and that’s the last time I ever talked to any of them
Horizon 5 really did it; came back just to see if I was having a Mandela effect.
Happy 10 year anniversary Horizon 2012
I remember playing this game at 7 years old dreaming of driving a car one day and here I am driving now. It brings me to tears watching this again
Next year I'll get my license, but I drove cars before so I had some fun before the license

the 10th year anniversary hit me hard
Same here i almost cried when the old camaro and the gallardo appeared and when scott said the old drivatars names those were such good years of my life
Bro I tested like crazy man brought some crazy memories
The whole entirety of the horizon series have brought so much happiness to me and and I can't wait for the next
One of the greatest open world racing game of all time this game is my childhood, I haven’t missed a single horizon game still growing strong 🔥🔥🔥🔥
0:36 is when the actual music starts
thank you sir
I forgot how much I loved the first game
Completely fell in love with it
Horizon 2 was a bit meh (the 'cinematic' scene before races killed me every time)
Horizon 3 is definitely stronger than 2, and feels more like the proper sequel for 1
But 1 will always be the best
2 was the best of the series. Best balance between physics and number of cars. And a better map than 3. 3 physics were shyte.
@@randomuser1687 yea, I felt like horizon 2 felt disconnected from fh1, but with fh3 it felt like it was street race-y like fh1. fh2 had more classy and luxury.
Random User fh2 for xbox360 was lame, but the xbox one ver was kinda good
krwry131 yeah mate, because it’s based in france. Expect the luxury and stuff, france has the snobbiest people there.
Oh my god. This just gave me some serious nostalgia to 2016-2017. I remember in 2016 my mom got me an XBOX ONE kinect, but I insisted on returning it and getting the Xbox 360 E. So I ended up with the Xbox 360E which died a year and a half later due to me always punching the noisy fan.....I think it might've been the disc drive....but either way, it's gone now. I still have the original game disc though.
Y are you punching your xbox
@@NeverSaySandwich1 ikr
why woukd you do that? i begged my parents for the xbox one, but ended up getting the 360 instead
Bro didn’t know that you can play Xbox 360 games on the one and bro why are you punching your Xbox, no wonder it broke
I wish I could play this game for the first time again. So many memories were made with this game❤
this game really gets you in your feelings.
I can't believe it was nearly 10 years ago. I feel like it was yesterday. 😢

Mega nostalgia listening to this. Sometimes put the soundtrack on and go for a drive to remind me of those days of coming home from school and playing this game
this is better than forza horizon 2..
I agree
As much as I love Horizon 2, I agree with you.
The first forza horizon is better than any other racing game in my opinion.
can't argue with that
RacerPlayer I personly like NFS more but i lovethis game too and will always still play it
Is it me but I would love to live in this world! This game brought me so much happiness in my life! From the music to the cars
Porter Robinson ladies and gentlemen ❤ language will forever be one of the greatest records
Has to be extended mix to get that beautiful soft intro
This is so nostalgic!!
Thank you!!
I still remember going into this game 7-8 years ago and now I’m playing forza horizon 4!
How time flies!!
Happy 10th Anniversary
Still hop on every day and see others vibing in free roam at the end of 2020, 8 years later
Wait,they didn't close the server?
Game of my childhood
I have goosebumps man, oh my god these songs just brought back so many memories. How was this 12 years ago already 😔😮💨
I wasn't really one to play racing games, but when my brother bought this game...
you are the definitoin of evil for putting a watermark on this
the best horizon game still, the whole story aspect with "rivals" made it feel more worth while to do the objectives
One of the best
The reason I even know who modestep is
I wish they remastered this game. I know they kinda already did, but i mean better graphics, open world race (so we wouldn’t be stuck on just the road), riding through water, a slightly different map, an ACTUAL story this time, different story on how a nooby looks up to the driver who beat Darius Flynt.
ah the game that started it all for me and what brought back the love of racing back to me after nfs most wanted
I really got a tear 😢
1:04 Man……. I think I’m gonna cry!
I too man.. Best Forza ever 🔝
Forza horizon my beloved
Best starting song for any forza imo brings back all of the nostalgia and joy that this game brought me as a young lad
9 years ago and this song still hits Different
10 year anniversary of this game and the nostalgia trip brought a tear to my eye
Unbelievable game - even better soundtrack
This game brings back so many happy memories
Man I was 13 when this game came out now I’m reminiscing about the intro in 2023. Wild
this gave me full on actual chills. the nostalgia hits hard.
I've worked so hard on this game
I remember playing this game on the 360 when I was 7..... literally at the time before that I had a Wii and I would play need for speed and when I got my xbox and then forza I'm literally like.....this out does NFS any day,now I play forza horizon 4 and I will love forza and always will
Favorite Racing game on xbox, and my favorite on ps3 is Need for speed hot pursuit (2010). Both amazing open world racing games with a beautiful soundtrack and world.
No unfortunately there is no Jeremy Clarkson
Show me a Sign by Modestep
Forza Horizon 10 years anniversary brought me back here 😭🥲
This is the only game and maybe FH2 that made the main Horizon festival feel more than just the garage
The music makes it feel so nostalgic ...
Sad that I never got to play until the new horizon
Last night, ive went to porter Robinson concert. It was fun first 1/2 but went he played his older song. I just loved it
I’m saying it now for an anniversary for horizon we should come back to this location and this theme needs to the title theme
I remember when. It first came out😭
sometimes I used to just sit watching this for a while before I even started playing
today i played the game again and the memories came flooding back best Forza 4ever
I wish I could go back in time and play it like it was my first time playing it again😢
This game is the reason I am into cars
still running after 5-6 years when i bought it :D
No matter what others say, I feel that Playground games always manage to make the best game intros in each game. I mean Forza horizon 5 also has an awesome intro that I just don’t want to skip. And this… well this is now just pure nostalgia. The beginning of an amazing festival that hopefully will never end.
Where the Horizon Festival all started, and never ends. ❤️
THE NOSTALGIA
porter robinson baby! used to let it sit there so I could listen to the song
Didn’t we all
language always gives me chills when it’s on the intro
I really wish Forza can replicate this type of vibe once again.
technically fh5 has this exact intro
Happy 10th anniversary
So so so so many hours with friends
good old times ❤️
i remember spending 2 years of my young life into this game because i didnt want to ever race. i just free roamed for such a long time and it got me money. those were times i would want to re-live again
I was 9 when this game came out...the only time I ever got with it was in a target on the demo...it's what sparked my love of cars
I’m crying so are you
Im probaby the only one here that is a actual fan of porter Robinson and i played all the forzas and reconized that intro song immediately
Pure magic. The people who made this game understood car culture
When i was 5-4 years my older brother showed me the nicest trilogy, of all time the forza`s games
I cry every time I see the Turn 10 logo
They should rlly bring back both of those songs back into the new forzas cause i grew up with thoes songs and omfg hearing them just makes me want to get it back
Porter Robinson's live Nurture edit of Language would have been absolutely PERFECT for this menu screen.
What a great intro for an even better game. I'd love to have a way to play this again, outside of plugging up a 360 again.
Everytime I see this intro or hear this song it makes me wanna cry
