This is the moment every Forza Motorsports 5->ke3733 owner and fan has been waiting for. The Nurburgring->ke999 has been completely recreated for Forza 5. Best yet, it is 100-percent free and it is available RIGHT NOW!

When Forza Motorsports 5 was first announced, fans around the globe lamented the fact that the most iconic slab of asphalt in the world was not going to be included. Turn 10 claimed it was a simple omission due to time constraints. Every track in Forza 5 was laser scanned for incredible accuracy and remade from, and doing the immense length of the Nurburgring just was not possible.

Now they have apparently had the time they needed, and the entire track has been recreated from the ground up using the most advanced scanning and modeling techniques that Turn 10 has access to. Every bump, surface and piece of graffiti looks to be represented in incredible detail. More than 13,000 man hours went in to creating this racing masterpiece.

While bringing the Green Hell to Forza 5 is a great thing, a lack of tracks was one my biggest complaints in my original review. Turn 10 is taking things a step further by allowing players to drive the entire 16-mile course. This is the first time the full course has been available to players of the Forza Franchise. Looks like fans of Gran Turismo->ke3689 have one less feather in their caps when it comes to comparisons between these storied franchises.

Now if you will excuse me, I have to go waste the rest of my work day flogging a car around a digital representation of Germany.
