Atari nabs Simbin to make exclusive 360 racing game called Race Pro.

Veteran race developer Simbin (Makers of the GTR series) has teamed up with Atari for its next game, the "ultra realistic" and rubbish-named Race Pro - and its exclusive to Xbox 360.

I'm not sure the 360 really needs another racing game, but whatever.

[Hellsvacancy]

And let me guess this game will beat gt5, itll b just another racin game like Forza, PGR and Grid

[power of Green]

No let me guess, this will be another game which PS3 fanboy troll losers will claim can never be as good as the already outdated POS *that did not sell well* you call GT5-P...

[level 360]

If GRID was the arcade version of TOCA, then surely this up-coming Race Pro will be it's sim version counterpart.
I have a copy of GTR2 ( PC ), and have to say SimBin did a good job on that one.
Only question is will MS/XBox 360 support an independent steering wheel supplier for this game? Because at the moment I'ved got a G25 steering wheel which I use for both my GTR2 ( PC ) and GranTurismo 5: Prologue, Formula One ( PS3 ) games...

"I'm not sure the 360 really needs another racing game, but whatever."

I thought both the PS3 and the 360 have around the same amount of Racers; exclusive and multi platform(for this year atleast.

I'm sure number One in the gamerzone would not have said that if this was coming to PS3 sence Race Pro would have been the forth Top Tier Racer to release with in a few months of eachother on PS3.

What #1 in the gamerzone is saying is like saying *Does the 360 really need another RPG* when the lineup is mixed with JRPG's, WRPG's etc different types a fans will like different sub-genres. The Xbox 360 only has 1 SIM, the PS3 supposedly has 2 those are the exclusives the rest are multi platform.

It's been hacked since like 2 days ago.. I've sent them an email telling them about it!

EDIT: I think they are fixing it now.

Simbin says otherwise.

SIMBIN OFFICIALLY DENIES FALSE RUMOURS REGARDING X360 GAME
”We are issuing this statement to counter false rumours currently circulating on the internet regarding a new X360 game. We do have plans for an upcoming X360 game and an official announcement from Simbin will follow shortly with correct information on title and publisher. To clarify on a specific point, THQ is not the publisher of our upcoming X360 game. The information currently circulating is incorrect,” said Magnus Ling, Vice President, Simbin Studios.

to actually lie..

[Bladestar]

lol... "THQ is not the publisher of our upcoming X360 game." isn't that a contradiction? there is no xbox 360 game.. but THQ is not the publisher for "our xbox 360 game"... weird ehh?

[eddierivera]

I just got burnout. So now all I gotta get now is, Midnight club, Gran
Turismo, Forza 3, Motorstorm 2, Grid, Pure, Wipeout Hd, Mario cart, Ferrari Challenge, and Need for Speed undercover. So I need about $600 bucks to get these games this year. Thats not including all of the rpg's, Fps, Tps, and action/adventure games that I wanna list. I rounded off everything I want, and Im gonna need $2,000 bucks to get every game I want this year.

[thekingofMA]

have you thought about renting?

or, maybe have you thought about just not getting every damn game you want? you don't need 25 racing games btw

[pow3r of t3h c3ll]

GT5P did not sell well POG?

A demo sold 2.5 million, how is that a flop? thats more than flop odyssey and Ninja Flop 2! Could I have pwned you any worse you dipsh*t know nothing retard?

Nothing will EVER steal GTs crown of the greatest racing sim of all time!!!

And Btw GT5 will sell more consoles than any other exclusive so far cus the series has sold more than 50 million, you know more than even the "mighty" Gaylo! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HA!!!

[eagle21]

Cause he knows Gran Turismo 5 will come to crush the competition in sales and reviews in 2009! :)

[TheDesperado]

Looks like this story's a fake.

Ooops, no 360 exclusive for xbox boys.

[Bzone24]

Where do you get that? They are denying the reports of who the publisher is for the game, they are not denying the game.

"We do have plans for an upcoming X360 game"

[Zeevious]

where you and other 'Cult of the Console' followers can bicker about it?

Let me guess, the comment you get back is...
Ooops, no Forza 3 on the PS3?

Competition means we All get better games!
GT5 = a better Forza3
Forza3 = a better GT5

Are you really complaining about that?

[Glad to be a gamer]

I wait with baited breath to see how this turns out.

I wonder why they decided to not give the PS3 any love?

[xm15e2s]

"I wonder why they decided to not give the PS3 any love?"

Because the PS3 blows donkey dinks. : D

After that mega flopper Alone in the dark, im not sure Atari will make it past christmas.

Only Xbox 360 provides gamers with the ultimate platform of choice for hardcore racing enthusiasts. Along with the AAA IPs Forza Motorsport and Project Gotham Racing, it is a pleasure to welcome Simbin, creators of the famous GTR series of racing simulators for PC, to the Xbox 360 community with the release of RACE Pro in Fall 2008.

This title establishes the Xbox 360s clear superiority over the PS3 as the console of choice for racing enthusiasts. While the fandroids would like to think that Gran Turismo is actually capable of competing with the likes of Simbin and Turn 10, this announcement proves once and for all that the worlds top racing simulator development teams have chosen the Xbox 360 as their platform of choice for the next generation of racing simulations.

Gran Turismo is now irrelevant, a dinosaur of last century. The future is with Turn 10 and Simbin Only available on the Xbox 360

Remember that hyped up PGR4 launch? It was so big! That game today has sold like maybe 200,000 copies, maybe. Yeah all those racing games on the 360 never really sold very well. The 360 just has gears and halo. Go back to your shanties you fuking douche rag. Its funny your excited for a game made by Atari,and Simbin! Atari has made the biggest flops, Alone in the dark, Driver 3. All sucked massive balls. They get a new CEO every month. Because their crapper CEO's just keep running that flop company in the ground to make a quick buck. Who in gods name would want to play a game called Race Pro? EWWWWWWWWEWEWWWWWWWW just the name makes me want to take a shower. Atari is going to go under before Christmas. They lost so much money in the past years, I bet they have like $1mil in the bank. Zhuk I bet you had fun with that big 360 steering wheel. The worst selling accessorie besides the hd dvd player.

ONLY IN XBOX 360, JUMP IN
