Forza Horizon: Canada
Canada is an incredibly diverse environment, perfect for a game like Forza Horizon. There are places in Canada where the weather can shift from sunny to rainy to snowy in the span of a day – so Forza developers can introduce snow and ice to the Horizon package. Canada has a variety of places to drive in, from the prairies, to the Rocky Mountains, to the beautiful cities.
Things to avoid:
Let’s skip all the lame Canadian cliche’s that are generally portrayed in media. As a Canadian, I’ve never met anyone pronounce “about” like “a-boot”, and almost no one says “eh”. Okay, I say, “eh”, but that’s not the point…
Key sights to see:
- Science World – Vancouver, BC
- CN Tower – Toronto, ON
- Dinosaurs! (okay, just their fossils and skeletons) – Drumheller, AB
Bonus idea:
Forza Horizon games each have a diverse soundtrack (accessed through a number of in-game radio stations). Let’s make sure Canada’s music scene is fully represented with at least one Canadian radio station. I’d love to hear: Danko Jones, Hawksley Workman, The Tragically Hip, Serena Ryder, Rush, The Guess Who, Our Lady Peace, Billy Talent, Barenaked Ladies, Shawn Hook and so much more!
