The racing game for true fans

Advantages: Amazing graphics, stunning visuals and sounds, great control system, fantastic game depth
Disadvantages: None

...on TV where they played Forza 2 and me being simply blown away by the amazing look and apparent feel of the game, so was it really all worth it? The game is one produced by Microsoft studios and is as such an XBOX 360 exclusive. The game once again brings forward a huge variety of cars to the fore with the likes of the Ford Fiesta, Fiat 500, Alfa Romeo MITO, Bugatti Veyron, Chrysler Crossfire, Dodge Viper, Ferrari F430 and many more (total of over ...
...a variety of different classes based on their performance with information on performance indicators also provided on each car. Oneof the things I love in this game though is that cars can be moved between classes through upgrades which you purchase as you gain points (points are gained through performance in races). Each and every car in this game simply look stunning and are perfectly rendered with it being obvious that you are not in the same ...

Review of Forza Motorsport 3 (Xbox 360)

Need For Speed: Shift

Advantages: Looks Good, Sounds Good, Great Cars
Disadvantages: Over a Bit Too Quickly

The latest installment of the Need for Speed, Shift, series reverts (thankfully) back to the track-racing percision of ProStreet. After a few more dyer attempts at the even-more-overdone-than-WW2-shooters street racing scene, the new game heads back to some of the most popular race tracks in the world. Slightly Mad Studios have managed to create an accessible racer that's easy for a beginner to pick and jump into, but at the same times appeals to ...
...racer before will know what to expect; you start with a small amount of money to buy a bottom-of-the-barrel car, finish a few races and upgrade your car, finish a few more and buy a better car. There are plenty of cars to choose from and they all behave differently making the driving experience for each unique. The cars are broke up into Tiers, as you progress through the career you unlock new tiers and new cars. One thing I found with Shift is I ...

Review of Need for Speed: Shift (Xbox 360)

Value For Money

Advantages: Good For Young Kids
Disadvantages: Bored Fairly Quickly

I recently bought this game from a sale on the GAME website. It is a fairly fun game, but mostly aimed at younger kids. The achievments are fairly easy, but take TIME, you must progress through the game to collect them. It is a game based on the film, so you pretty much play through the film. For those that havn't seen the film, it's pretty much just races and some mini games such as the postcard hunt where you must search high and low for postcards. ...
...the races and mini games. It is a very visual game, brightly coloured and easy to control. It as a fairly enjoyable game but can get frustrating having to repeat something over and over until you win it. There isnt much choice of what to do, one task leads to the next. Its not terribly addictive and you are likely to get bored fairly quickly, but kids will enjoy it. Its definitely worth the £17.99 i payed, its a fairly fun and challanging game. ...

Review of Cars (Xbox 360)

Competitive and rewarding game

Advantages: Bikes, Weather, Looks
Disadvantages: Lack of people on PGR on demand?

I bought this game secondhand as i do with most games and was pleased with the new look to the game. The graphics looked even better and i couldn't wait to get on a motorbike. The career mode is different to that in PGR3 with it's month/date/event layout. There is also an arcade mode which is more like the PGR3 career mode but there is lots of variety throughout this game. It is very easy to sit down and have a play with it. The kudos system works ...
...get the hang of but when played for a while it is much more rewarding than in PGR3. Also there are no such things as credits (money) as you buy not single cars but SETS of cars (which makes the game feel nicer if i may say) with kudos gained. The cars are less glitchy and the bikes implemented are fun (sometimes tedious on ice) and as mentioned just there there are much more wether conditions. What i found really cool was in dips in the road and ...

Review of Project Gotham Racing 4 (Xbox 360)

Race Pro - Good And Bad

Advantages: Hugely Realistic and Emersive Gameplay, Great Cars, Realistic Handing and tuning
Disadvantages: sometimes frustrating, bad graphics.

Race Pro is my favorite racing game on the Xbox 360. its increasing difficult gives it many hours of game play and at the hardest difficulty will take a long time to master. its increased complexity gives it many settings that you can fine tune, it emerses you in a very realistic world. surround sound suits this game perfectly and it makes great use of 5.1 Dolby surround sound. the graphics have room for improvement but when fully emersed you take ...
...difficult and gets increasingly more difficult throughout the game including everything from Mini cooper racing for Formula 3000, the steering wheel adds great realism and is what really makes it the best racing game on Xbox 360. with downloadable content expected i think that this game has some serious potential in the racing simulation market. the online multiplayer is good and quite full, lag is sparse and players are respectful but expect abuse ...
