Forza 3 collectors edition plus Audi Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr-8
Vroom vroom
October 23rd will mark the launch of “Forza Motorsport 3” in Ireland, exclusively on Xbox 360. With more than 400 cars on over 100 tracks, the next game in the heralded series will be the biggest and most vividly realistic console racing title launching this holiday season. And while all “Forza Motorsport 3” players will get to experience the bone-jarring physics, unparalleled levels of customization, and epic car and track list, fans who purchase the Limited Collector’s Edition will find even more goodies under the hood.
The Forza Motorsport 3 Limited Collector’s Edition (LCE) gives aspiring drivers, tuners and painters instant VIP Membership status within the Forza community including special recognition in the new Storefront feature as well as the online Auction House, scoreboards, ForzaMotorsport.net and more. As a VIP member, consumers gain exclusive access to five of the world’s hottest cars:
- 2009 Aston Martin DBS
- 2009 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1
- 2007 Ferrari 430 Scuderia
- 2007 Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera
- 2007 Porsche 911 GT3 RS (997)
And if you crave cars, you won’t want to miss another perk of the “Forza Motorsport 3” LCE – an Exclusive Collector’s Car Pack, personally hand-picked, tuned and painted by the team at Turn 10:
- Audi R8 5.2 FSI Quattro (Forza Motorsport 3 Cover Car)
- Acura NSX (Forza Motorsport Cover Car)
- Nissan Fairlady (Forza Motorsport 2 Cover Car)
- Aston Martin DB9 (Forza Motorsport 2 European Cover Car)
- 2008 Dodge Charger Stock Car (with Xbox 360 livery)
In addition to the exclusive cars, Turn 10 also plans to create a series of new and exclusive designs and tuning kits exclusively for VIPs. And to show off your true “Forza Motorsport” pride and prowess, consumers also receive a Forza Motorsport 3 collector’s keychain and a 2GB USB thumbdrive in which you can store your favorite “Forza” videos, photos and designs to easily share them with friends.
As an added incentive, pre-order Forza Motorspot 3 at participating retailers and you will receive a token to unlock the official pre-order car for “Forza Motorsport 3,” the custom painted Audi R8 V10.
While it is certainly a lot of stuff, it still doesn't seem worth forking out extra for, especially when you'll eventually be able to get them no problem in the Auction House.
Although… “2008 Dodge Charger Stock Car (with Xbox 360 livery)” – NASCAR Sprint Cup Car? If so, then that's me sold
I have been a sucker for special editions in the past but this does look good. Pre-ordering to get the Audi R8 is worth the hassle of pre-ordering IMO. The rest seems a little fluffy but it's a lot better then night vision goggles.
