GC07: PGR4 Intro video
2007-08-31 14:53:59 by BlimBlim
I've just realized that we completely forgot to put online this video we filmed by chance at the Game Convention last week, showing the full intro video of Project Gotham Racing 4. As far as I can tell this has never been shown before!
I also of course got to play the game at the Game Convention, and I really liked the few minutes I spent there. Graphically the 2 years Bizarre had since the release of PGR3 certainly show, even without the mostly excellent looking weather effects PGR4 definitely beats the previous game hands down.
The new cities also look much more interesting than the rather boring ones from PGR3, since this time Bizarre actually seems to have chosen them for their racing lines and not only to get big names on the cover. Quebec and Macau especially should more than please the fans like me of the small and elevated streets we had in PGR2.
I'm not too sure what to think about the motorbikes though, I'll need quite some more hands on time with them before I can decide if I like their handling or not.
As long as Bizarre manages to lock the framerate to 30 fps, PGR4 should be the game we fans of the series all wanted it to be!

That just looked amazing I can't wait for this game to hit the store shelves because I am so there!
Then again I can't even wait that long, about to pre-order my copy right now from Amazon.com
I just hope they did something to improve the raciing wheel because I'm about to get one of those too for this game.

I'm pretty sure none of that is ingame based on the "animated" look to the handling and superior global lighting on the vehicles. I'm hoping it could be, but I'm not expecting it to be.
Love the music. That's the latest jizz from the Prodigy and I'm glad we have a racing game that does not feature ass-rock, teen-rock or any sort of "rock" in the intro.

it's a stunning intro and very easy to be sceptical about a game so good looking, when for years intros have been FMV. I'm more inclined to believe that that really is in game footage, because although the cars do look real, so much of it looks like a game (not in a bad way). It's just the case, that when you see the Seirra Cosworth ripping ahead of a few other cars, it looks beautiful but it ain't no FMbloodyV.
