GameSpot will host the world premiere of Codemasters' miniature racer for PCs on Thursday at 5 p.m. PDT.

On June 27, Micro Machines v4 will ship in North America for the PC, Nintendo DS, PlayStation Portable, and PlayStation 2. However, PC gamers who want to sample the game can do so starting tomorrow. At 5 p.m. on Thursday, June 22, GameSpot will host the world premiere of the game's first demo. The demo lets up to four players race the titular brand of toy racing cars on three tracks set in a kitchen, a chicken coop, and on top of several unidentified rooftops. The demo will also feature a single-player component in the form of "quick battle," which pits you against computer-controlled opponents.

    Oh Boy!! why not do an RC Racer like Revolt? That was awesome!!

    Hmm, all this goes to back up my theory that most people here are 8-14 years old. Seriously guys, grow up, "who cares" posts arent big, and arent clever. If theres any news you arent interested in, then dont friggin post.

    Anyways, I'l certainly be trying the demo ASAP. The original MM games just had a real pick up and play appeal, especially in multiplayer. Hope this game is just as good, if not better.

    Micro Machines V3 was awesome back in the day. I hope this is like V3 and not like the horrible sequel released for the PS2.

    it's nice to see codemasters get the MM game back, I need to find the older MM games, I miss them, sqaurenix needs to make an updated RC pro am, that would be cool too, but there so busy with making another FF i think everyone has forgotten that square made more than rpgs at one time

    A lot of these posters were about 5 years old the last time a Micro Machines game was relevant, popular, and very well-rated as a multiplayer party game. So that potential feel-good vibe...isn't there. I'm crossing my fingers for a fun little racer.
