Project Gotham Racing 4

Also known as: Project Gotham Racing IV

Vroom for just one more?

Outside the main single-player features, PGR4 has plenty of trimmings that deserve a quick mention in what is fast becoming less of a review, and more of a love note to Bizarre Creations. The option to pause the game at any time and snap a photo, fiddle with the effects, and upload it to Live might sound less than thrilling, but it’s something you’ll spend hours playing with.

Online, PGR4 is as solid as ever. Bizarre encourages tomfoolery as they ask teams to beat opponents by reversing over the finish line in tandem, or pull simultaneous Endos on a bike. One neat little viral unlock requires you to beat a member of the PGR dev team online, or beat someone who has bested them.

In short PGR4 is a complete driving package. As a car racing game it leaves the likes of Juiced 2 and NFS chewing its snow-spray, and as a bike-sim, it’s a more forgiving, accessible alternative to MotoGP. Motorhead or not, you need this game.

You'll hate
