Project Gotham Racing 4 releases Oct. 2 in US, Oct. 12 in Europe

by Ludwig Kietzmann { Aug 23rd 2007 at 12:55PM }

Those hoping to steer seductively shaped hunks of metal through rain and snow should be pleased to note that Project Gotham Racing 4 is scheduled for release on October 2nd in America and October 12th in Europe. Those unsure of the Xbox 360 racer's selling points should simply read the first sentence again, noting that said hunks of metal may constitute either cars or motorcycles.

Though initially aimed for a September release, the DVD-loving folks at Bizarre Creations explain that today's two-day delay provides them with enough time to put "the finishing touches on the game to ensure it crosses the finish line at retail as the best title yet in the 'PGR' racing franchise." If you're curious as to what it is you'll be racing, peek past the break to see a list of newly unveiled in-game vehicles.

Yay! but I havent beated Forza 2 yet :(.
Something that bothers me about Forza 2 is that my painting skills suck,My best car is a Loco Roco one and I see all these cool paints everywhere,the only way I can get the trade achievement is by buying 10 cars...well at least is possible.

Well, there goes anyone's Christmas gifts this year! I'm spending all my savings within the next two months releases...on myself!

Bah Humbug! I'll just get everyone a card...and I'll spare a tree this year.

If history repeats it's self, I believe October 2nd will go something like this:

7am: bananaboat buys PGR4
8am: bananaboat loads PGR4 and goes into matchmaking for an 8 player race
8:02am: Race starts
8:03am: Light turns green, cars take off, and immediately a 10 year old wrecks his car into mine, shouting "AHAHAHAHAHAH I PWNED JOO N00B!!!!"
8:04am: I go back to playing Halo 3

Now switch PGR4 for PGR3, and Halo 3 for Halo 2, and you've got the experience I had with PGR3

No they added a new feature. Instant replays and further destruction. Keep hitting turbos to keep the wreck going.

Word of the street. @ Aug 23rd 2007 1:27PM

Hehe.

I have PGR3 and PDZ and I have touched any of them in months hell I just play them 1 week,they were cool but I'm more in to Dead Rising and The Darkness.I played Dead rsising for months,I love that game.

I have 3 great x360 games sitting there because I rarely feel like playing them.PDZ,PGR# and Viva Pinata(Piñata).

Ive never played PG b4 but this one looks great. What i wanted to know was is this more of an Aracde racer or a sim racer or in the middle?? Personally I prefer arcade since I do have a life and dont plan on building my cars and upgrading this and that like Forza or Gran Turismo.
