In all of it's 1080p60 goodness.

Project CARs has really taken shape over the last few years and is now probably the premier racing sim, is finally coming out officially in March.

Here's the description as per the Youtube description:

With over 80,000 players being involved since October 2011, in March racing fans will finally get their hands on the most technically-advanced, beautiful, intense and authentic racing game on the planet that's been tested, guided, and approved every step of the way by both gamers and real-life pro drivers alike.

Featuring:

  • A huge variety of motorsports and reflected car culture with relevant rules and formats
  • The largest track roster of any recent racing game
  • A freeform career mode that allows you to choose your own path with Historic Goals to earn, Accolades to win, Endorsements to sign, and Invitations to receive
  • Competitive online with features such as 'join in progress' and invite-only sessions
  • Fully-dynamic weather and time of day
  • Race weekends including warmup sessions, practices, qualifying, and two-race format Pit stops and pit strategy creation for different scenarios and events (eg.. endurance)
  • Deep tuning setup creation
  • Asynchronous play via the Driver Network - Time Trial mode with downloadable ghosts and regularly-scheduled Community Events
  • Save and share your proudest moments with photos and replays
  • Player tailoring and accessibility features - dial the game to your own particular skill and comfort level
  • Playable either at a cinematic 12K resolution or on a more intimate scale with Oculus Rift. Project Morpheus, or nVidia Shield
  • Support for over 40 different wheels and peripherals
  • Second screen support via apps created by the community through the Project CARS API

But enough talk, see for yourself why both critics and gamers alike are excited for Project CARS with our new trailer!

Slightly Mad

Personally I think this is going to be the racing sim to play. Think of this release as the foundation of what will constantly be added too. There may not be as many cars or tracks as Forza or GT has at launch, but Project CARS will be expanded on over the years without having a sequel where you have to give up your car list or tracks.

The engine used for Project CARS is extremely impressive. The physics modeling is probably the most realistic available to consumers with each car being modeled in a variety of components rather than a single block with a subset of variables assinged to the whole thing. The assets are all extremely high fidelity and the rendering is probably the best I've ever seen in a racing game. Already there are thousands of photos out there people have taken that border on photo realistic.

Watching the 1080p60 trailer to see exactly what I mean.

I'm actually looking forward to this. I wasn't one of the backers of their project as I do not know enough about racing games in general to give them accurate feedback. It seems as if the project has been a major success.

Good news for fans of all consoles is it appears that Project CARS is coming to the PS4, Xbox One, and Wii U as well as the PC. So I guess everybody wins this time.

Wii U owners have to wait... like every other port coming to it, so not exactly a win/win.

I can't imagine playing this on WiiU with the triggers, or lack thereof.

i just got GT6 so thats going to keep me busy for a while. but this looks very cool. when i get the itch for a new racer this will probably be the one i will get.

does it have rally (or is it planned) or is it just for street/circuit racing?

Keeping an eye out for this one, looks great but it needs to play well online for me to be interested.....I need to play racers with others most of the time, I get bored quickly racing laps alone or against your generic racing game AI. Gonna be interesting to see how this turns out!

This is one game I'm really looking forward to. I haven't played a really good racing in a while and this looks like it's going to be one of the best ever.

The game is coming along nicely! The first proper racing sim to come out on consoles in a while and it's running in 60 fps on PS4. You're in for a treat, cows.

The first games to hit true photo-realism will be driving sims and this is about as close as we've come so far.

Not surprised that the first person to mention Drive Club was a cow troll. Expecting to see many more from the usual cow alts using photomode to try and displace how much better looking PC is.

I can imagine playing this on the wiiu with the gamepad's triggers and using the gamepad like a steering wheel. Who knows if they'll implement motion controls for the wiiu though.

The triggers are still not pressure sensitive.

And I'd rather not rely on motion controls for something sim heavy like this.

They may be able to get 1080p60 out of the deal if they cut enough graphics down. But yes, it's the same game.

Remember, racing games can be real easy to run. They may do 720p60. They will most definitely be targeting 60fps.

I cannot imagine this game on the Wii U even with the lack of third-party titles on the system.

Classy trailer.

Reminds me a bit of classic NFS intros.
