Welcome once again ladies and gents to The Poid Pipper Newsbeat! I am your host, The Poid Pipper, and you will be fully engulfed with awesome deals and spotlights that Xbox Live has to offer from October 4 – October 17. I am certainly excited, so why not break the seal with the main attractions!

Forza Motorsport 4 & Forza Motorsport 4 “Season Pass”

Speeding its way to your living room, Forza Motorsport 4 will be available for purchase on October 11. With an expansive set of tracks and over 80 vehicle manufacturers, the game will bring new realism to the genre and raise expectations for newer racing titles.
