Microsoft sent word today that Forza 3 will not be delayed into 2010. Sad we have to explicitly state that, but these days, you can never be too sure.

Instead, the exact release date for the game in North America is October 27. No idea yet for Europe, but for Aussies and Kiwis, good news! It'll be out a little earlier, on October 23.

Along with the announcement, Microsoft sent along a pic of the finished box art for the game's special edition, which we told you about last month.

And look at that sexy Special Edition, I know I'm getting it!

So who all is getting it? I'm gonna try for release day.

Hehe, just thought, we should start a racing team called "Texas ...TeamRacers..."

I never got the hang of the forza games, probably because I sucked hard at them.

Now, the RallyCross games? Those were damned fun

Forza Motorsport 3 isn't out until October, but eager racing fans can get an early taste later this month when the Forza 3 demo hits Xbox Live.

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.
