forza motorsport 3 Second FM3 Jalopnik car pack finally coming!!

[superhyper]

The second of Jalopnik's two car packs for Forza Motorsport 3 is here! You'll be able to buy the pack, chosen primarily by Jalopnik readers, this Tuesday, December 14th through the XBOX Live Marketplace. Sadly, there's been some changes — so the car pack's not entirely perfect. Gone, sadly, are the Shelby Omni, Starion, Lancia, Ford Escort Cosworth, Syclone and BMW 6 series. Added, inexplicably, is the Ferrari 250 California. Partly this was due to vehicle availability and partly it was done as a need to balance out the offerings. Still, we're excited to see we got some of the most important cars — like the El Camino and the DeLorean. We also got the Pantera and the Saab Turbo. Muscle car fans got the AMC. Basically, there's something for everyone.

DMC-12, Volvo 240, Saab 99 Turbo, Sierra Cosworth?! AWESOME :odance: And the Merc 190 Evolution? nom.

 

Too bad they had to drop the Escort Cossie, would have loved it (and the Omni and Starion as well, oh well, you cant have everything, can you?)

Oh god. You actually mean we can make the Delorean go into hyperspace? Yus!!!!

[T3hReaper91]

Wait you mean they released the first?

[Sponge]

Yeah!! That was AGESSSS ago. You go the free Jalopnik GT500.

Lol maybe gotta turn back on FM3 at some point although dont have enough points atm.

[Mb]

I guess the main reason for not adding the other cars, is that they don't want to give us 5 cars for free by throwing 15 in the pack as they promised :lol:

[iLLGT3]

There's a catch like everyone thought.. :rolleyes:

 

They could have at least put in the E39 M5 but it was the FM3 community that voted..

[t.]

Wait, they want money for this?

[Camel]

Lol, too late, I've not played it for months and don't plan on doing so in the future.

I know others have said so before but T10 really have lost it now.

 

First they release the Stig pack, but only to buyers of the Ultimate Pack (and a few who have won codes on stupid lottery comps and their forums/twitter). And they give a sample car of another pack thats also only available to said Ultimate buyers.

Then to keep players away from GT5 they announce the Community Choice/Jalopnic II pack thats full of crappy cars (cossie excluded) and one that will no doubt cost way more credits than 99% of players have (250 california)

 

As Diablo said in another thread, why is there no Gallardo LP560/550? to name but one car missing from FM3 car list... every other car game of the past year has had it

[superhyper]

I'm just happy there is a new DLC coming and that it doesn't include 10 different 2010 cars. :rolleyes: Though I'm still annoyed that they dropped the Escort out...

 

Also worth mentioning is that all DLCs (except this one of course) are 50% off during 20.12. to 26.12. (only for XBL Gold members). Finally I might just get all the DLCs I have missed and start playing FM3 again :)

[T0M722]

It's not that good enough of an update to make me start playing again. There are much better car packs out there that I don't have and would get in favour of this.

They removed the 6-series (the E24, I assume), so I'm annoyed despite not owning an xBox.

Some really embarrassing glitches in this pack. Mercs and Cossies can drive through each other, to name but one

The 190E is lovely, though.

That's M$ for ya.

[TimBud]

None of that had anything to do with M$... it was all T10. :eek:

Well, who does T10 work under? Just thought they had something to do with it.

[TimBud]

It doesn't matter T10 "work under" M$.

All the decisions mentioned here are T10s

 

 

:cool:

[Shy Guy]

The only good car here is the Ferrari 250 GT California, that car is just lovely.

 

and the Merc isn't too bad either, I'm glad they removed the BMW.
