With High Expectations PGR 3 Delivers A Knock Out Punch, But It May Not Be Enouph For Hardcore Racing Fans.

User Rating: 8.4 | Project Gotham Racing 3 X360
Gameplay: Really Good Game Control Is Where PGR 3 Excels. The Overall Feel Of Each Car Has Great Handeling But Still Manages To Bring A Good Sense Of Speed. Damage Modeling Is Rather Dull , With Just Minor Hood Crunches, Mirror Damage And Scuff Marks That No Effect On Your Cars Performance In Any Way. The Opponent AI Is Very Challenging And Delivers Intense Wheel To Wheel Racing, But Would Really Takeoff If There Were More Cars On The Track. The Best Feature In This Game Is The In Car Racing View. Like No Other Game Before You Have the Ability To Look Around The Inside Of You Car When Your Racing, This Is Really Really Fun And Truly A Sight To Behold.

Graphics: Very Sharp, The Inside Design Of Each Car Looks Just Like The Real Thing, Right Down To The Stering Wheels, Speedometers, Dash And Even Cd Players. Outside The Cars Look Good But Could Use Some Better Lighting Effects During The Races. Environments Are A Hit And Miss, With Some Tracks Looking Fanstastic And Others Not Looking As Clean.

Sound: Powerful And Realistic Engine Noise, Tire Sqeels, And Crashes Are Some Of The Best Sounds I Have Heard In A Racing Game.

Value: With A Short Career Mode And No True Upgrades To The Cars PGR 3 Doesnt't Go Along Way In The Depth Department. The Kudos System Is Still In Effect But Is Starting To Get That Old And Outdated Feel To It, But Still Manages To Get the Job Done. There Are About 80 Cars In The Game; Mustang, Ferrari, Mclaren, Corvette, Viper, Saleen Mercedes, Lotus, And Shelby Are Just Some Of The Cars Featured, About 40 Cars In The Game Are Proto-Types And You Probably Have Never Heard Or Seen Any Of Them.

Reviewer's Tilt: Overall PGR 3 Has That Next Gen Feel To It, With Top notch Visuals, Great Control And A In Car View That Is Just Awesome And An Expierience You Must Try. Racing Fans Will Get A Kick Out Of This One For Awhile, But May Get Bored Fast Due To The Underachieving Career Mode, And Minimum Upgrades And Features
