Bizarre Creations has said it won't be letting its racing baby Project Gotham Racing 4 into the wild "till it's done," as the dev admits PGR3 wasn't quite finished.

Bizarre business director Brian Woodhouse told Eurogamer, "This one, we're not letting go till it's done."
He commented on PGR3 stating, "We just ran out of time. We feel like we've got more time [on PGR4]. Last time round, we feel like we got the game ripped away from us."

Speaking to a UK gaming publication, Bizarre's Craig Howard commented that the PGR on demand service has the capability to store every raced played out on PGR4. You can also search for keywords and then rate each video, so for example you could put in a comment such as 'that was a great crash' and so forth.

Following the release of Microsoft's Forza Motorsport 2, Bizarre Creations' forthcoming Project Gotham Racing 4 represents the next high profile racing title for the Xbox 360, but this did not keep the game from being taken to task during E3 by the gaming media, some of who questioned the studio's decision to opt for 30 frames per second gameplay rather than 60.

"We looked at that," commented Adam Kovach, PGR 4's global product manager during an E3 demonstration. "We debated for a long time... we looked at what we would be giving up if we tried to go to 60 versus 30 frames a second. We don't want to lose the visual fidelity... we made a conscious decision that 30 frames plus all the effects in the game was far more important than having a pure 60."

17 new screenshots from Project Gotham Racing 4 officially lift the lid on the inclusion of bikes in the sequel. "...this brings a massive new dimension to PGR racing," says developer Bizarre in an extensive in-house preview on the two-wheel racing. "The game will feature both cars and bikes on the same track at the same time, with unique 'Gotham style' handling. One thing's for sure: this isn't bikes as you've seen them before..." It explains that one of its main missions with bikes was to ... » Read More

Microsoft today released the final US boxart for Project Gotham Racing 4, which will be released exclusively for Xbox 360 later this year. We all know that PGR4 will feature tons of great, high-performance cars but there have been some rumors that PGR4 would feature motorcycles as well.

Microsoft nor Bizarre Creations denied or confirmed this rumor but if you look at the PGR4 boxart you can see a motorcycle in the reflection of the car behind the PGR4 logo. Does this mean PGR4 will indeed be featuring motorcycles for the first time ever in the franchise?

We will probably see a lot more of the game at the coming E3, which is finally beginning next week. Maybe Microsoft will show off some motorcycling action!

PGR4 took a step closer to a concrete release date today when Microsoft announced that the game would be launched in Japan this Autumn.

While this won't strictly have an impact on when we get it, given that Gotham 4 is being developed right here in the UK by Liverpool-based Bizarre Creations, we can probably expect it around the same time, if not slightly sooner.

A KIA car model featured in Xbox 360-exclusive PRG3 has been used in an image promoting the car manufacturer and the PlayStation 3. Whoops... For the record this is the second time assets from Project Gotham Racing have been used in conjunction with a PlayStation promotion. Back in January, a similar goof was made while promoting Gran Turismo HD. On Sony's own PSP Connect website, a 'splash' encouraging visitors to download a new GTHD trailer used an image of Xbox 360 racer Project Gotham ... » Read More

Do you remember back in January when PlayStation decided to show off the amazing next-gen graphics of Gran Turismo HD with a screenshot of, er, Xbox 360's Project Gotham 3? Well, looks like they're still trying to convince themselves that PGR really is a PS3 game...

Car manufacturer Kia is currently running a promotion with PlayStation in Spain that compares the thrill of driving one of their real-life motors with the thrill of driving a Ferrari Enzo on your PS3. Except no PS3 game has a Ferrari Enzo in it.

Ah well, at least you can't clearly tell that this screenshot has clearly come from PGR3. Oh wait. Look at the number plate...

You can check the Kia/PlayStation website out for yourself here, but since it'll no doubt be pulled very soon I've captured the moment for posterity.

The big new feature of PGR4 is the weather and the significant effect it will have on the racing, and Bizarre is so keen to show it off, a new trailer has been released. As the cars blast around the streets of St. Petersburg you'll see the water droplets that have settled on the car, and the spray kicked up by the screeching tires. Check here to read about how the weather will play such an important role in the new game. There are also various reports doing the rounds that bikes will make a ... » Read More

Spong.com says they have confirmation from both European and American sources, Gotham 4 will carry a vast array of motorcycles from the world's leading manufacturers. Right now, licensing deals are under way and as such, the code recently seen by their spies was displaying bikes on tracks with little in the way of official livery.

Perhaps the best news is that bikes and cars will be competing head-to-head in both on and offline versions of the game. Spong was told the bikes can crash, though this element of the code was not complete so unfortunately, everyone can only imagine the marvellous Road Rash-style mishaps that will result.

They've been making the rounds in Middle-Earth (or magazine land) for a while now, but finally the first Project Gotham Racing 4 images have made their way on to the Internet. As you can see from these screenshots, the big feature in PGR4 is the gorgeous weather effects, with water that beads realistically on the paintjobs, sprays from the tires and causes madness in the in-car view. Also promised for the fourth installment are over 200 racetracks from ten different locations and a broader ... » Read More

Bizarre Creations believes that Project Gotham Racing 4 is the first game in the series that it's really been able to focus on, not having to hurriedly complete it to release with a new console or service.

This time around you'll have more options when creating your driver, which will form the basis of a revamped Career Mode. Your opposing drivers will also now be more charismatic, identifiable by their racing styles and "personalities". There'll also be more spectators who will react better to what's going on around them, and might even wave a national flag or two.

More info after the jump.

Details have been pretty scarce on Bizarre Creations' hotly anticipated racer, Project Gotham Racing 4, but small tidbits of info have begun to emerge, following the revealing of the new extreme weather mechanics. According to a Polish magazine (via Xboxic), the events in the main career mode will be set out in a tree-like format, similar to Ridge Racer 6. Although the driving model will remain mostly the same, drifting has apparently been made a touch easier, while nudging the rear of an ... » Read More
