Project Gotham Racing 4, which we're assured by Microsoft Game Studios and Bizarre Creations is the latest instalment racing franchise", has been "released to manufacturing". In short,
PGR4 is nearly ready to roll, the code is with the people who carve out the discs, and the label painters are licking their brushes. The street date is confirmed (October 12th) as is the price (£44.99).
Here's the official line, "
PGR 4 is set to race onto store shelves on 12th October. Featuring a unique, exciting racing experience where dramatic racing action is captured in breathtaking cinematic style,
PGR 4 is sure to capture the attention of racing fans everywhere. The all new addition of motorcycles adds a new dimension to the
PGR driving experience by allowing gamers to compete and pull off amazing driving manoeuvres not possible on four wheels."
The confirmation of an October 12th street date will finally put paid to the doubts and fears of PGR fans who have seen
release dates changing in front of their eyes. Of course, SPOnG brought you the bike news way back in
May.
The official
PGR 4 web site is also up and running over
