Forza Horizon” Reveals Entire Music List, Season Pass Details and Behind the Scenes Video #2

New video documentary welcomes racing fans to the open roads of Colorado

Microsoft, Playground Games, and Turn 10 Studios have released a new edition of the “Forza Horizon –Behind the Scenes” video documentary series. In this latest edition of the video series fans have a chance to explore the open world playground of Colorado, which is the backdrop for all of the automotive action in Forza Horizon.

Forza Horizon’s creators spent months creating the incredible version of Colorado that fans will be able to race, drive, and explore in Forza Horizon1. In this video, fans will be able to get an inside look at how the team took the hundreds of hours of video footage and the tens of thousands of photographs gathered during multiple reference trips to Colorado, and translate them into the massive, fun-filled world that makes up Forza Horizon. From the treacherous sun-baked cliffs of Red Rock to the pulsing non-stop party that is the Horizon Festival itself, Forza Horizon’s Colorado is an automotive playground brimming with intense action and surprises around every turn.

The multi-part “Forza Horizon: Behind the Scenes” video documentary series opens the door to the creation of this year’s biggest racing game, Forza Horizon.

Forza Horizon Season Pass Details Released: The “Forza Horizon” Season Pass is your action-packed ticket to automatic access to the “Forza Horizon” Expansion Pack (available Dec. 18, 2012), along with six game car packs, as they’re released through the next year.

The “Forza Horizon” Season Pass will be available for purchase starting Oct. 23, on the Xbox LIVE Marketplace for only 4,000 Microsoft points (AUD$67.00 RRP).

Forza Horizon Music List Unveiled: Forza Horizon is set against the backdrop of a fictional automotive music festival – the Horizon Festival. This robust music list includes over 65 songs spanning more than 60 artists and was curated and created specifically for the game by Rob da Bank, a BBC DJ and creator of the Bestival music festivals in Europe.

Dishonored | The Tales from Dunwall

Bethesda has just released ‘The Awakening’- the first in a three-part Dishonored webisode series entitled ‘The Tales from Dunwall’.

CODE NAME: GERONIMO

Available on Blu-ray, DVD and digital download December 26

Killing Bin Laden.

A break in the manhunt for Osama Bin Laden serves as the riveting backdrop for a gripping story about the combined efforts of an extraordinary group of Navy Seals who undertook the operation to capture or kill American’s number one enemy. This is the story of a clandestine operation, a perfect storm of people, and the rare synergy of circumstances that would amount to the most daring military operation of our generation, inspired by the true story of how it almost fell apart.

Interrogated detainees reveal details on Osama Bin Laden’s possible whereabouts, and the CIA debates how and when  to strike. Intense training begins for a team of seasoned Navy Seals. They ready themselves for an unknown mission, with  the only Intel that it will be top priority. Orders from the Pentagon instruct the team to convene at the US Base in Bagram,  Afghanistan.

Eight months of surveillance on the suspected Bin Laden hideout reveals high walls, tinted windows and barbed wire surrounding  a two story home and guest house. At CIA Headquarters in Langley, VA, officials debate the possible ramifications  of an unannounced attack on Pakistani soil. At the US Air Base in Bagram, Afghanistan, the men ready themselves to board  Black Hawk helicopters bound for the compound. With helmet cams on and the president and other officials watching via  satellite, the mission begins…

The story behind the greatest manhunt of all time, from the producers of THE HURT LOCKER, Nicolas Chartier and  Tony Mark. To be released theatrically in the US by The Weinstein Company, around the time of the US election.

TRUE JUSTICE VIOLENCE OF ACTION Season 2 Movie 3

Available on DVD and digital download November 7

After leaving the force, Elijah Kane (Steven Seagal) falls back  into his special forces past, re-emerging from the ashes of his  destroyed Special Investigations Unit to once again work for the government. Aware of his skill as a long-range  sniper, Kane is recruited by Marcus Mitchell of the CIA to come back as an operative. In return, Marcus promises  that the CIA will provide information to Kane about who put out the hit on his SIU team. Kane is given a long-term  ‘off-the-grid’ mission to take out a high level target that the CIA cannot go after in the ‘traditional’ way.

Marcus feeds Kane intel that leads him into the target’s ‘circle’ with a goal of getting Kane close enough to take a kill shot  from a distance. Only then will the identity of the target be revealed to the team. For this operation, Kane recruits  three agents to form a new team of operatives. All three are rained by Kane and ultimately driven (like Kane) by  not just business, but also for personal reasons.

In Violence of Action, when Bojan, a ghost from Kane’s past, resurfaces the CIA believes he is in town to protect  The Ghost’s personal money launderer. Kane wants to know what The Ghost is buying and knows these men  will bring him the answers he needs to get one step closer to his target.
