Ford GT from an early build of the game!

 

[95oRANGEcRUSH]

I like the sound of this game. I'm pretty much done and bored with PGR3 and am now playing G.R.A.W.

I'm definitely going to rent this when it comes out.

 

[bone stock]

you need to play project gotham on 360, it's amazing. not to mention all the ford products :-D

 

[moddestmike]

The vids on ign don't look that good. Its a bit arcade like. I prefer simulations. It does run at 60fps which PGR3 does not so thats a good thing.

here it is at gamespot with some videos. idk, project gotham is pretty amazing. i love how the saleen E is one of the top 5 fastest cars in the game :thumbsup: . but with this test drive, i cant believe how big the servers are, 20 thousand?! can you say lag!

I was worried about Test Drive being arcadey myself but if that side shot of that Ford GT is not rendered I'm deffinatly going to have to atleast give it a rent.

As far as PGR3 goes, I will only be bored with it once I'm atleast in the top 1000 players on Xbox Live. (Just dropped into league 18)

:lol1: lets all laugh at the retard. No there isn't going to be lag dummy! Can anyone say WoW what about CoH maybe even Starwars Galaxies. Do they lag nope.

:burn:

This and PGR3 is comparing apples and oranges this isn't an arcadey game its arcade/sim just like PGR3.

OMFG not the FPS wars again!

all these videos are taken in bad resolution with crappy cameras and are of old builds of the game. It doesn't come out for a couple of months give it a chance.

IGN comfirmed it runs 60fps, I said that was the GOOD part. The past Test Drives have always been arcade like and I prefer a simulation. Its just does not look appealing to me. Thats all I said. If it is indeed a ggod game I will purchase it. I felt the same way about burnout but I bought it and I love it.

first off, don't call me a retard, you havent even played this game yet. project gotham is the most realistic driving simulation game i have ever played. thirdly, all 360 games lag online, especially call of duty 2. your saying putting TWENTY THOUSAND people onto one server wont lag :shrug: i'm not trying to say this game wont be good, i've never played it. but calling me a retard when i say there will be lag when there are 20,000 people in one room is just ignorant.

Have you ever heard of an MMORPG? Like World of Warcraft or Star Wars Galaxies or Everquest. Thos have many thousands of people in the same server at once, and they dont lag.

 

[ESVEETEE]

XBOX has a history of lag in larger player bases.... is the point he was making.

this isn't the same kind of servers of COD2 or any other game that on xbox live.

 

[LogiWorld123]

Car damage is not in the game this decision was made so some ass online woudn't destroy your car once you bought it.

Lame.

 

[iCEMANSGCCC]

It has the Mustang GTR too, +1

 

[booricua]

I will have to ask my son ??????

 

[xilix]

You've obviously never played a real simulation before.

Get your hands on simulations that are built on some real physics engines (like an uncompromised ISI engine for example) and then you'll know what it's all about. PGR is an arcade game, not a simulation. No matter how pretty these console racing games get, their physics engines continue to be laughable. I've yet to be even slightly impressed with any of them.

well you know the developers have to cut curves so when the game comes out people don't bitch.

:bash:

it has the shelby cobra concept, AC 427, and a plymouth Barracuda to!

exactly I would reccomend Forza Motorsport.

But the 360 version will be superior.

And this is because?

Once again, another cool thread that turns into a bitching match.
