Racing games have always been my way of taking a break from Xbox Live. Having the freedom to race around a track surrounded by dumb AI opponents and consequently crushing them to the ground is something everyone needs and deserves to do. The Project Gotham series has always been the Daddio of me whereas Forza and Need For Speed are more like my second cousins. Midnight Club however, my unfortunate Uncle named DUB Edition, died at the age of 3.
Gran Turismo appealed to me once - when I broke my wrist. Upon returning from the hospital with a hilariously coloured purple cast covering my arm, I could do nadda. So, with a bit of persuasion, I managed to get my PS2 escorted from my bedroom down into the sitting room and began my mission: Complete all endurance races. I didnt do it as my wrist healed within 4 weeks, completing all of GTs endurance races would take a lifetime.
Race Pro looks awesome. Im pretty sure it was scheduled for release some time in 2008 but got delayed a gabiljillion times like Huxley [cant wait for that...] for reasons which I cant be bothered to find. Recently however, tons of trailers have emerged to keep me going. To keep me moving. To keep me on the internet.
Link, embedded video eats up the world as well as my page
The first 40 seconds or so are damn impressive, the cars look mighty realistic as do the tracks and shizzle*. I dont know why theyve included a track run-through as we all know what Laguna Seca is, right? Weve all played racing games. Of course we do.
Hit this link to check out all the videos Race Pro has to offer. It certainly looks smooth and, given the number of cars, tracks and races involved, could be hot, hot, hot.
Race Pro is scheduled for release on January 31st on some consoles. Cant be bothered to check.
*that actually is a real video. F***.
