Project Gotham Racing 4 Cities Revealed

Despite being a PC hardware enthusiast, I am a huge console gamer and there is no genre I enjoy more than racing. PGR4 has many intrigued, and for good reason. It brings weather-effects into play and motorcycles… a huge step for the series. Joystiq has news of the official city list for the game which include Macau, Las Vegas, London, New York and even a Canadian level, Quebec. No surprise, but Nürburgring is back as well. As with most good news, there is some bad news as well:

The sequel to the Xbox 360 launch title will also boast weather effects, motorcycles and a Michelin-sponsored test track, with some of the returning tracks from the previous game seeing adjustments to enhance the flow of racing and prevent pileups. They will also be presented at a different time of day, though this aspect itself will not be adjustable. Posting in the official Bizarre Creations forum, a staff member noted, “You won’t see different times of day per city because this involves recreating all the textures again (one for day and one for night). Whilst this wasn’t a problem for our dev team, it was a problem fitting all this data onto a single DVD.”
