Project Gotham Racing 3: PGR3 Hits the Streets on Xbox 360
Company: Microsoft
Driving straight into your living room at about 170 miles per hour this holiday season is the Xbox 360 version of Project Gotham Racing 3. Judging by the screenshots, this racer looks to be the best looking ever brought to the small screen. Most of the cars look so unbelievably realistic that you?d swear you were watching a movie. While Gran Turismo should receive the well-deserved credit for being the first realistic street racing sim, PGR3 certainly offers up some outstanding competition.
Returning to the Project Gotham Racing series are Kudos, which will award players not for simply winning a race, but for doing so with style. Only the best drivers will be awarded Kudos, so pulling off sweet power-slides and hang time are crucial to your success in this department.
At your disposal will be 80 authentic real-world cars from great manufacturers like Ferrari, Dodge, and Lamborghini. But Project Gotham Racing 3 isn?t just about looking good; it?s also about sounding good. That?s why the developers at Bizarre Creations took the time to even record engine sounds to help drive the realism.
Also making an appearance in Project Gotham Racing 3 are authentic locations from real world cities like New York, Tokyo, and Las Vegas. And not only will you enjoy great sites like these, but you?ll also have thousands of fans cheering you on while you?re racing like a champion. And at the end of the day, when it?s all said and done, you?ll also be able to hop onto Xbox Live to watch the top players in the world. If you?re into racing titles, PGR3 looks to be the game of choice for the Xbox 360.
