Image Hosted by ImageShack.usMicrosoft Game Studios have announced that its critically acclaimed, highly anticipated
driving simulator, Forza Motorsport, will race onto store shelves exclusively
for Xbox in February 2005.

Forza Motorsport peels out of the Xbox garage with
the ability to transform more than 200 real-life production cars from over 40
of the world’s top car manufacturers into speed-drenched racing machines
with aftermarket parts from more than 150 partners. A powerful physics engine
and a long list of online racing features playable only on Xbox Live, Microsoft’s
premier online gaming service, gives Forza Motorsport the checkered flag with
racing gamers and car enthusiasts as the deepest racing simulator ever offered.

“Forza Motorsport is a title we are getting amazing feedback on from people
who are really passionate about the world of cars and auto racing,” said
Shane Kim, General Manager, Microsoft Game Studios. “The ability to customize
your cars, the amazingly realistic physics and of course the ability to experience
all of this online is quickly making this the one ‘must have’ racing
sim.”

Forza Motorsport allows gamers the ability to showcase their garage work with
the best the online world has to offer through simultaneous competition with up
to eight racers or by trading their “tuned-up” and “tricked-out”
creations over Xbox Live. Forza Motorsport also debuts both an innovative on and
offline “career mode” that includes traditional competition with AI
as well as fully-interactive online racing with human opponents to accumulate
career earnings for tuning up your ride. Forza’s online ranking system ensures
evenly matched racing for all skill levels.

Beyond head-to-head racing, Forza Motorsport encourages gamers to build car clubs
of up to 100 different Xbox Live gamers for worldwide car communities and competitive
team racing. Forza Motorsport will take online racing to a whole new level with
more than 1,700 leaderboards that seamlessly integrate into the single player
portion of the game, thus fueling gamers with the ability to compete for ultimate
online bragging rights. Exclusive downloadable content including new cars and
tracks will complete Forza Motorsport’s high-octane online garage.
