  • Turns out I've never played one of the best Xbox Exclusive racing games, so today we're catching up and checking out Project Gotham Racing 4 which might actually have been more fun than Forza Motorsport (at the time...)

    This game does so much right. The camera movements, FOV, motion blur, sense of Speed even its only 30fps. sound, lighting. I was always amazed at how cinematic it looked. And you can even race the Nordschleife in snow conditions!

      I also have this hidden gem for the 360 and till this day it’s such a trill every time I jump into PGR4 the music the tracks the cars the main career mode and the snow events is also wicked even if it’s a bit arcade for a game that’s a decade now such a classic but I would say PGR3 and 4 were the best of the bunch

    On Xbox, this game also had some obscure achievements, one required hitting 88mph during a storm with a DeLorean, another involved going past a casino in an Aston Martin DBS, and another required getting second place in a race while a song that had one (1) line about second place was playing

    When I was a kid, my parents took me to Kumon for math class. Each time you finished on time , you could redeem rewards, I saved up all my Kumon money to buy this game. It introduced me to the racing game genre. I love it to this day, it's like a grand Turismo but goofier.

    PGR2 is worth trying. Original Xbox game, they definitely went the less flashy route of PGR4. There’s no bikes, all racing is separated into classes like old muscle cars, modern super cars, hatchbacks, coupes, roadsters etc, and I loved that about PGR2 So much, you really felt like you were progressing classes.

    you might be into the project forza plus mods for the motorsport games on the 360, it fixes a ton of issues with the stock games, and adds plenty towards realism, and making the games run great, you just cant put any decals on your cars, you can paint them all you want, just no pictures or strips, at least as of yet. thats a xenia issue though, and if you can get these mods running on real hardware (pretty sure you can) you wont have any issues with creating liveries. all i know is, the physics in these games is why ahead of gran turismo 4, so this is my new favorite way to drive with my thumbs.

A nice list of cars the shifts sounded very real and the sounds were spot on it seemed for its time. Got to race motorcycles against cars. Another favorite was the z06 vs a 600 on a roll and it matched real life outcomes. They could remake pgr4 right now for pc and id buy it. For now the new king for me is asseto corsa and mods.
