Forza 3 Update # 4: 26th August
We have a few more pics for you this week from some secret sources within Turn 10, and a few videos.
One of the latest releases from Turn 10 is called Dreams and there’s another one that appeared on The Gadget Show in the UK recently. Both are well worth the 15-20 odd minutes it takes to watch it all.

Here are some in-game (off-screen) images for you to gander at. Yes, the colours are saturated; this is usually the case with normal off-screen pics in average lighting situations. But they give you an idea of what to expect and different from others laying about the net.

But here’s the ‘real surprise’: showing the brilliant US track Laguna Seca with its infamous “Corkscrew” (I just love that set of turns, and it brings so many undone in the approach over that rise, with the slight right-hand bend then severe left-hand and right-hand swoop). We also know that Nürburgring is definitely back for those that love the challenge of the track, both full circuit and the GPO and Sprint tracks.
There are also a few Japanese wonder-cars that will set some hearts a-flutter.
And to end for now, but most definitely not for August, we have the video of the UK The Gadget Show showing the Audi R8 and some trips around the ‘Ring’. Don’t forget, OXCGN will ideally be getting their backsides into some real steel next week at a special media-only event which will include the brilliant V8 Supercars and of course, Forza 3.
