HYUNDAI AND AND MICROSOFT
Hyundai?s relationship with Microsoft developed out of a lust for high performance automobiles. The Microsoft team met with Hyundai staff at the Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) show in Las Vegas in November of 2008 to discuss possibilities around the upcoming 2010 Genesis Coupe.
Turn 10 Studios, a Redmond, Washington-based racing video game developer created internally by Microsoft Game Studios, embarked on the meticulous process of scanning Genesis Coupes with high level detail and consulted Hyundai?s premier drift racer Rhys Millen to provide real-world feedback on the gameplay and vehicle renders for accuracy.
?It is exciting to have your own car in a video game. I was very impressed with the realism of the game with things like hood pins and exhaust outlets showing up in precise detail,? says Rhys Millen, driver of the Red Bull Hyundai Genesis Coupe race car and founder of Rhys Millen Racing. ?The Turn 10 game developers were very accurate in portraying the driving experience as well. For example, changing tires alters the handling of the car just like in the real world.?
To perfect the look and driving feel of the Genesis Coupe in the game, Turn 10 developers spent many hours scanning every inch of the Genesis Coupes. The attention to detail even resulted in a perfectly captured Genesis Coupe exhaust note.
Extending this unique partnership even further, ?Forza Motorsport 3? will also feature in-game advertising of Genesis Coupe on billboards, building exteriors and JumboTrons, made specially for the game.
Fans will be given the opportunity to test drive the most realistic experience ever as ?Forza Motorsport 3? makes a public appearance at the Hyundai stand at the SEMA Show from Nov. 3 ? 6, 2009 at the Las Vegas Convention Center.
