Screenshots Of V8 Super Cars In Forza 3
Microsoft has announced that Forza 3 will feature V8 Super Cars. the game features 4 versions of the Holden Commodore and Ford Falcon, each with a specific team branding from the Australian/New Zealand championship. The Teams And Car Makers Are As Follows.
Holden
#2 Toll Holden Racing Team Commodore VE
#33 Garry Rogers Team Commodore VE
#39 Supercheap Auto Racing Commodore VE
#51 Sprint Gas Racing Commodore VE
Ford
#1 Team Vodafone FG Falcon
#5 Ford Performance Racing FG Falcon
#9 Stone Brothers Racing FG Falcon
#25 Britek Motorsport FG Falcon
Forza 3 V8 Super Cars
Press Release
V8 Supercar racing is on the rise, quickly becoming a popular spectator sport around the world, in addition to being the fan-favorite race type in Australia and New Zealand. Sept. 11-13 will mark Supercar racing’s L&H 500 Phillip Island, so it’s only fitting that the racing enthusiasts at Turn 10 would reveal that “Forza Motorsport 3” will feature eight versions of the well-known Holden Commodore and Ford Falcon when the game releases on October 22nd in Asia, October 23rd in Europe and October 27th in North America.
Often referred to by fans as a hybrid between NASCAR and the British Touring Car Championships, the V8 Supercar series runs strictly homologated 5.0 liter pushrod V8 engine cars from manufacturers Holden and Ford. The fact that the two cars used by the 19 teams in the league consist of the Holden Commodore and the Ford Falcon is no coincidence; in Australia, both the Commodore and the Falcon are popular people-movers and the drama of the on-track rivalry between Holden and Ford is something unique to pop-culture Down Under. Unlike NASCAR, the V8 Supercar races are held on road courses as opposed to ovals, with drivers battling for position, often with full-contact results.
The team at Turn 10 is pleased to encourage this budding branch of racing, as “Forza Motorsport 3” will include Falcons from Team Vodafone, Ford Performance, Stone Brothers, and Britek Motorsport, and Commodores from Toll Holden Racing, Garry Rogers Racing, Supercheap Auto Racing, and Sprint Gas Racing.
All cars will feature immaculately rendered interiors and extensively reinforced cockpits to handle any collision or rollover, just like their real life counterparts. Players will realistically experience their favorite V8s to a degree that, until now, was only possible in their dreams.

Lane Merrifield, one of Club Penguin’s co-founders and executive vice president of Disney Online, was in Mexico City to announce the launch of the virtual world in Spanish.
“We have significant numbers of Spanish speakers who have been playing the English version of Club Penguin, so creating a Spanish version for them and other kids around the world was a logical step in our continuing efforts to support our diverse audience. Our hope is to give every child an opportunity to experience the fun and creativity of Club Penguin in their native language,” says Merrifield.
The addition of Spanish brings the number of languages featured on Club Penguin to four. After launching in English in 2005, the online playground added Portuguese in November 2008, followed by French in March 2009.
“The Spanish version of Club Penguin creates a more immersive experience for the vast Hispanic communities across Latin America, Spain and the United States while maintaining the fun and safe online entertainment that kids and their parents have come to expect,” stated Diego Lerner, President, The Walt Disney Company Europe, Middle East, Africa and Latin America. “Spanish-speaking children looking to explore and interact in this one-of-a-kind virtual world will no longer be confined by geographic or linguistic limitations, which is a perfect example of Disney’s strategy to create truly global, high quality entertainment for our audiences and fans.”
Club Penguin is one of the largest and fastest-growing virtual worlds for children. With its imaginative play environment,Club Penguin provides a wide range of opportunities for children to participate in fun and engaging skill-building games and activities, social collaboration, and real-world skill development.
