To pay or not to pay? If that is the question, then here is the answer…You can have it both ways if you’re a fan of Forza 3 as Turn 10 and Microsoft have announced the release of both free and paid content for the game beginning today and running through the holidays. Here’s how they put the details:
After launching to universal fan and critical acclaim on Oct. 23, the Forza Motorsport 3 engine is still firing on all cylinders as today marks the release of the “Hyundai Genesis Coupe Car Pack,” downloadable for free on Xbox LIVE Marketplace. Additionally, Turn 10 and Microsoft are giving fans even more reasons to celebrate with the “Hot Holidays Car Pack” Game Add-on, including 10 late-model year cars available on Dec. 8.
The “Hyundai Genesis Coupe Car Pack,” now available for free on Xbox LIVE Marketplace, includes the Rhys Millen Racing Red Bull Hyundai Genesis Coupe, the HKS Genesis Coupe, and a one-of-a-kind “Forza Motorsport 3” Genesis Coupe. Now fans have the opportunity to expand their already-epic Forza Motorsport 3 car rosters and experience for themselves several iconic variations of the 300-horsepower Genesis Coupe.
The “Hot Holidays Car Pack,” releasing Dec. 8 for 400 Microsoft points, will feature some of the world’s most anticipated super cars and purpose-built race cars of 2010, including the recently unveiled Ferrari 458 Italia. To give players a taste of the “Hot Holidays Car Pack,” the brand new 2010 Audi S4 will be available as a free download.
Since each of the vehicles in the “Hot Holidays Car Pack” comes with its own fanfare and unique place in motorsports’ present and future, the team at Turn 10 will be unveiling and diving deeper into each car over the next two weeks on Forzamotorsport.net. Auto aficionados should be sure to tune in for daily photo trivia contests to guess the model, make, and year of each car, with the chance to win real prizes and other in-game rewards within Forza Motorsport 3.
So, there ya go. We’ll keep you posted on any additional details as they emerge.
cuttos to the turn 10 studio for actually providing digital game property free of charge. they could have easily tagged this Hyundai car pack with a small price tag. i think the gratitude and appreciation of fans loyal to the forza brand is more valuable than the small profit this would have churned out if it did come with a price.
