Grand Prix 4 ships

Infogrames has announced that Geoff Cramond's Grand Prix 4 has shipped in the US. The next game in the acclaimed Grand Prix series has a new 3D engine that supports special effects such as heat waves from car engines and reflections on wet ground. The game also includes precise re-creations of the 17 championship racetracks, and all the crews and teams of the 2001 season are rendered with motion-captured animation.

We'll have a full review of the game soon. For more details, check out our previous coverage of the game.
