Dagen efter Xbox 360-ejerne kunne forsøge sig med en demo af Forza Motorsport 2, er der flere bilglade nyheder. Bizarre Creations & Microsoft Game Studios’ fortæller i dag, at det kommende Project Gotham Racing 4 (PGR4), som vil udkomme til efteråret, bl.a. vil byde på et nyt dynamisk vejr-system og indeholde en forbedret career-mode. Dertil vil “kudos-systemet” blive revideret og du vil få mulighed for at køre Shanghai’s gader & St. Petersborgs store boulevarder. Der er naturligvis også nye biler med denne gang, her i blandt 1965 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray, 1993 Toyota Supra Turbo & 2006 Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano.
Hellerup 11th May, 2007 – Bizarre Creations’ and Microsoft Games Studios highly-anticipated sequel to the blockbuster “PGR®” racing franchise is set to race onto store shelves this Autumn and there are several new features to get your engines revved up about.
Right from the starting line, Bizarre’s vision for “PGR 4” was to create an emotionally-charged racing experience, where players become attached to their careers, profiles and vehicles. There are several new features that embody this emotional experience, the most significant being the new career mode. Drivers will be rewarded with a growing fanbase that’ll cheer them on, react to their every move and support them through victory. Just imagine hearing the roar of the crowd as you cross the finish line with your own style and flair.
One of the most appealing new gameplay elements is the dynamic weather system. Now racing through a track can mean facing an unexpected rain storm or snow flurries in the middle of a race. This results in changing physics when powering around a corner on the wet or icy surface in Shanghai and St. Petersburg or any of the game’s 10 other locations. So, if you think driving on a dry track is boring…
Weather changes won’t be the only element that brings added excitement and challenge to the game. Flair and driving style will now be just as important as technical skill, as players passing their opponent at full speed will pump their fists and exhibit more emotion as they earn recognition with the revised Kudos system. The Kudos will be worthwhile too, because the new A.I. personalities will be able to perform bold new driving manoeuvres as they race side by side with other drivers.
