forza motorsport 3 Forza 3 demo coming September 24th!

[superhyper]

The white flag waves as “Forza Motorsport 3” has Gone Gold, entering its final lap before launching on Oct. 22 in Asia, Oct. 23 in Europe and Oct. 27 in North America exclusively on Xbox 360. To mark the occasion, Microsoft and Turn 10 today confirmed that a demo of the highly anticipated title will arrive on Xbox LIVE Marketplace starting Sept. 24.

 

 

The new demo lets you get behind the wheel of five of the world’s most amazing cars on the full circuit of the game’s Camino Viejo track. The demo includes five playable cars:

• 2007 Porsche #80 Flying Lizard 911 GT3-RSR
  
• 2010 Audi R8 5.2 FSI quattro
  
• 2009 Ferrari California
  
• 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X GSR
  
• 2009 Mini John Cooper Works
  

You will be able to drive all of the cars in the demo in full cockpit view as well as experience damage, rollover and try out the game’s new rewind feature as you take turns on a beautiful Spanish mountain course inspired by the Montserrat region just outside of Barcelona, Spain. When logged into Xbox LIVE, the demo will also support official leaderboards for lap times, giving you a further taste of what players will experience in “Forza Motorsport 3.”

 

With today’s Gone Gold announcement and the recent announcements around the fan-designed R8 V10 5.2 FSI quattro and the exclusive Limited Collector’s Edition (which includes 10 exclusive bonus cars, VIP community status, and more), there has never been a better time to pre-order “Forza Motorsport 3.”

[superhyper]

The funny thing is that it has sold gold already even though the release is almost 40 days away :D AAAH,I gotta pre-order the LCE already because I can't stand if I can't get the LCE version! I seriously need the GT3RS!

[Camel]

This should be good. No online racing though? That sucks.

[Impala SS]

Does someone knows about the car (motor) sounds in game?

So is it good?

There hasn't really been much car sounds shown off, I heard what the V8 supercars sound on Forza 3 and they are up to my standards, seeing I have heard a V8 supercar.

[Impala SS]

Ok but I hope the sounds will be better than TDU ;)

[Baldy]

Good news, can't wait! :D

FM2's sounds were good, so I'm sure they'll be much better in 3. :)

[Who]

 

that's a pretty good indicator of sound, listen to those V8 supers roar!

[TimBud]

I wish they'd stop teasing us with vids like that. Its starting to make me quite angry... :eek2:

[Shy Guy]

Forza 2 did have good sounds, but they were used on a lot of cars(Not every car had its own sound) but some do sound sort of realistic, like iirc the Gallardo Superleggera.

[Who]

For free?

 

Of-course it's a free demo, otherwise it would be called Forza 3: Prologue :lol:

 

*waits for GT fanbabies to jump on him*

[kalniel]

So has anyone tried this? I know Diablo's going to be too engrossed to post, but anyone else? :p

[Jazzi]

Going to download it when i get home from college :D

Apparenty its amazing, so we'll need to wait and see!

[T3hReaper91]

It is amazing but one problem...

 

Its soooo teasing when u overtake a GT3 RS and many other cars u just cant wait to drive.

[iBilo]

Wow, I think I'm the only one who thinks its absolutely crap.

 

I'll start with the good points, the graphics are brilliant, the best I've ever seen and the new interface is really nice and clean, plsu the choice of cars they have so far is great. The AI are better then last time who punted you off.

 

Bad points, it feels like Need For Speed Most Wanted, the physics are just hopeless. I overtook 4 people around the outside after I outbraked myself into a corner and went on the grass!! since when in racing do you get points for drifting and you still keep up with the car coming out of the corner.

 

It feels incredibly arcadey, since when in racing do you get extra points for drifting? When you drift you catch cars in the corners? Drifting slows the car down, not speed it up. Forza was supposed to be a simulation game, that's what made Forza 2 so good. But now it comes into the same genre as NFS.

 

Personally I'm very disappointed, I was incredibly excited, Forza have lost a customer.

[TimBud]

Yay, just downloading now. Will post some thoughts ASAP.

Here's one now... best Forza game ever! :)

[Nipper]

I agree with iBilo about the physics to an extent. Forza 2 had better physics, I feel Turn10 have royally screwed it up by trying to market it to the masses as a "pick-up-and-play" racer.
