Microsoft coming to MY house!

Post by Kouki7 »

Thats right! They're in the process of making a new "racing simulator" for the Xbox360 console and were looking for a S5 RHD FC to model the car from. I caught wind of this, called em up, and now they're coming to my house to do a photoshoot with my car to model the FC for their new racing game around! I'm super stoked! For letting them do this, I get my names in the credits as well as a free copy of the game when it comes out!

Time to buy a 360 eh? lol

I know, it'll be cool thinking that everyone who plays with an FC in their new game will be driving "my" car! 8)

They're using the pics of my car to make the model for the game. Reason my car works is it's got a totally stock body and interior which is what they need. Only thing done for visual is suspension which they don't worry about.

I believe it's for the new Forza but that's just my speculation. I'll have to ask em when they're here doing their thing.
