Project Gotham Racing 4: PlayTM Review

PlayTM writes: " Other than the truly sumptuous graphics and those motorbikes, the most immediately noticeable thing is the new 'career' mode. Pitching players headlong into a full campaign of racing, this mode at last provides PGR with a consistent core around which the rest of the events can hang like so much optional decoration."

"The driving in all modes of PGR4 seems to have had an extra injection of fun, even when the sun is shining and the birds are singing. The point of an arcade racing game is to provide thrills and entertainment and the repositioning of the game modes along with the blistering pace and bountiful eye candy conspire to make PGR4 just about the most fun I've had since Rallisport Challenge 2. Which, as far as this reviewer is concerned, is the highest praise I can offer. Bizarre have ironed out a few of the rough edges to ensure this opinion holds firm. For example, the corners are much easier to anticipate thanks to them being a lot less prone to popping into view 1/5th of a second before the braking point".

Let's Remember Some Xbox 360 Games

Luke Plunkett of Kotaku writes, "I think we all took the Xbox 360 for granted. Other all-time greats like the SNES and PS2 seem to be remembered more fondly than Microsoft’s console, which tends to be recalled as more of a thing that happened than a platform to be treasured."

A Kotaku writer pining for Xbox's golden years. I'm guessing there will be some good comments here.

“WE”didn’t take it for granted, M$ did.

What happened prior to launch of the One up through current day with their marketing and focus away from games and consumers. The failure of the One has nothing to do with the 360 being great. In fact backward compatibility and the 360 is about all the One had/has going for it. Now M$ is dumping money into fornite articles to try and be seen as more than they are, a company that doesn’t give a damn about its fan boys or products.

Top 10 Racing Games of All Time

Clickonline writes "To many, cars are simply a way of getting from point A to point B. But to gamers they are a way of doing so as quickly as possible, while leaving opponents trailing in your wake. The racing genre’s grid has always been full of fierce competitors. And there’s no indication that this will change any time soon with Gran Turismo 6 taking to the start/finish straight and next-gen exclusives such as Driveclub and The Crew."

Jalopnik - I'd just taken over as Tesla's PR guy and had been contacted by old friends at Microsoft Game Studios about including the Tesla Roadster in Project Gotham Racing 4. Darryl Siry, my boss, took me into Martin Eberhard's (Tesla's Co-founder/then CEO) office to broach the topic. That's when it went very wrong.
