Leading PC digital distribution platform GamersGate announced today the exclusive rights to sell GTR 2 on www.gamersgate.com
Simbin has for a long time been a fixture of the sim racing community as the makers of some of the most recognizable racing titles ever made. GTR, GTR2, GT Legends, Race 07 and Raceroom are just some of those games. Recently Simbin has been in the news with rumors of bankruptcy, closing up shop or some form of restructuring. With that going on Shaun Cole of The Simpit was able to sit down via Skype with Jay Ekkel, the licencing manager for Simbin. They talk about the company, its past, its future and a little bit of general sim racing talk.
The company is going through some restructuring there is some great insider stuff in this interview.
The editors at 2020 Gamer decided to make a list and tally up the cost of their gaming habits and ask the tough question, "Was it worth it?"
2008 was okay...
I'm actually more interested in what's coming out this year. It should be interesting, that's for sure!

I'm more interested in Street Fighter 4, BioShock 2 and Bionic Commando. Also don't foget that Burnout Paradise Ultimate came out for the PC. That is a good one.
Metal Gear Solid 4 basically sealed 2008 as being worth it, everything else was gravy.
Welcome to a special series of VideoGamer.com's Top 10, where they bring you the essential genre by genre video game buyer's guide for Christmas and New Year. It'll run every Thursday from now until the end of the 2008 holiday break, so, whether you're looking for some family video game ideas to get you through those boring Christmas get-togethers or some top sports games to spend that holiday cash on, look no further than VideoGamer.com. In the third of the series, they look at the Top 10 Racing Games.
Its more like the top ten most retarded games of all time. The fist 4 spots should be GT 1,2,3, and 4.
Good list... full of different styles of racing games and while the next GT will be the racing game to get in 2008... PGR4 is the racing game of 2007
I'm a fan of Forza and PGR but to list them and not list any of the Gran Turismo Series!? WTF! Is it me or does anyone else get the heavy stench of "PAYOLA"?
"Forza 2 the new King of the Genre"? PGR4 in at No. 1? Pull the other one. DIRT is better than both of them. After that list Tom Orry has absolutely no credibility.
Forza2 did`n live up to many people`s expectation! It sure dissapointed me! It does not deserve 2nd place. GT3 at its time was incredibly good, was The King, and it set the benchmark for the racing genre. Forza2 did nothing except a slight improvment from Forza1 whille GT series always broke records and is not even in the top 10! And TDU is! Man, get outta here with that bs.
They seem to be judging the race feeling in the games.
If you just want pure adrenaline racing with excellent controls and great sense of speed I'd pick PGR4 over the rest as well.
So no Steam? :(
wow what a way to get your game out into the market! good luck!
