Most of you already know it's coming, and some are eagerly awaiting it. We've seen videos, read interviews, but still haven't had a shot at playing it. Well, that's about to change.

Forza 3 has gone gold, and to mark the occasion, Microsoft and Turn 10 have announced that a demo for the game will be hitting Xbox Live on September 24th, giving players over a month to familiarize themselves with the game in advance of the October 27th release date. The demo features five cars ready to race on the Camino Viejo track in the mountains of Spain.

The five cars playable in the demo are:

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

All five can be driven in full cockpit view, with rollover, damage, and the game's new rewind feature firmly in place. The demo also supports online leaderboards, so you can start bragging a little bit earlier.

I loved it. Makes a substantial improvement over Forza 2. Amazing graphics (especially the tracks) and now we can actually roll the cars! No more shooting mini's up into the air 250 feet on the Nissan Speedway! :D

I look forward to the painting too. Serenity Mini V2 coming right up!

After spending a week with Need for Speed: SHIFT, I can't wait for Forza 3. Don't be fooled by the marketing for NFS: SHIFT, it's not a sim racer. The first their of cars are great, but after that, once you get higher end cars and upgrade them, they act like their on ice at speed. There's no sense of traction between you and the ground.

The driving physics is what I love most about Forza, no other racing game I've played comes close. Every car feels different, reacts different, even sounds different. In SHIFT, every car seems to sound the same. And don't get me started on the lack of customisation and the terrible vinyl system. Only three more weeks.

I tried both demos, and loved them both. Shift was fun, and I didn't have the ice problem so many people were taking about with the Viper. Forza 3 is gonna be so fun! I clocked too many hours on Forza 2 for it to not be fun! It's almost too bad that COD:MW2 comes out so soon after, cause I'm not gonna know how to split my time! Damn!!!

I wasn't talking about the SHIFT demo, I was talking about the full game. If you try using any rear-wheel drive car beyond tier 2 with upgrades, they all slide, unless you drop below 40mph around every turn. And it's almost impossible to do long gradual turns because of this, the slightest twitch on the stick will cause you to lose traction. And as you try to correct yourself it just becomes worse. Like I've told Vyise and Rocky, the game acts like there's a hidden rail the car wants to drive on, and if you veer off it you lose control. And I also had the steering sensitivity turned all the way down...

Something..... perhaps in A class? Or B? Something with lots of slack room to paint me thinks.

Who's going to start it off?

Alright iGamers, I'm not going to take the lack of a single vote as a bad thing. I know we don't get much traffic. But please leave a suggestion. For those of you that don't have a copy of the game, here's a list of all the vehicles in Forza Motorsport 3: The Official Forza Motorsport 3 Car List.

Please, browse through the list and vote for a vehicle that you either like or that you think represents our community. You can leave your vote here or at the InfinityGaming Facebook Group.

Well, that's one vote for the Infiniti G37. Anyone else?

Well, I decided to go ahead and try out the G37. But there's part of the front quarter panel/front bumper that can't get covered by a vinyl. So, after spending at least 200k credits upgrading it, the car is unusable... I'm going to give the G35 a shot, hopefully it won't have the same problem.

EDIT: I'm going to finish doing work on the G37, but then I'll be putting it up for sale.

EDIT: Looks like the G35 works just fine. Is that okay with everyone? I've already started work on it, and so far it's looking pretty good.

That looks awesome!!!

I also apologize for the lack of my presence on here. Since I made the move to a new house, my responsibilities have increased exponentially so my time has been somewhat limited.

I played with Spartan in Forza a few weeks ago (which was a blast). Hope to play with you guys again soon. :)

Looking forward to the end result, Spartan! I'm embarrassed to say it took me till today to get the actual game, so I have no idea of the scope of customizations, so I can't really offer any suggestions. But I'm definitely looking forward to the finished work!

Heya Ben.

There's a blank canvas that you can make vinal groups on somewhere in the paint menus. I'd check it out. If you put in an hour or two your car will look amazing; not to mention the uniqueness. Not to mention selling your designs for money. Not to mention buying sweet designs and using them.

Not to mention rolling your car around the crazy corners of nuburgring...

Man, I haven't done any work on it in a while, it's no further than what's in that picture. I really need to get back and work on it.

We should get some racing in sometime.
