Pgr3: Completed List

I guess I make my debut in the XBOX 360 forums talking about PGR3.

I don't remember playing the first PGR game, but I wished it was a PS2 and XBOX game, but it's XBOX exclusive. Who wouldn't want to race a Ferrari F50 around Tokyo? My PGR2 experience came from a demo. The demo included a Nissan Skyline around Yokohama, a Ferrari Dino around Fiorano, and a 1971 (?) Pontiac Trans-Am around a Chicago course with cones around.

PGR3 (I'll admit) looks pretty nice. With my PGR experience, I noted that the game is kind of like a "Dance Dance Revolution" in the sense of finding a rhythm in the race. Go for speed, you get ahead in the rank. Go for style, you lose time, but look good speedfreaking around town. This game looks to improve from where PGR2 left off. It is a nice-looking game that I think even Gran Turismo fans have to appreciate.

You can't talk about any big XBOX game if you don't discuss XBOX Live. And if G4/IGN has any indication, you'll be looking at big money winners for PGR3. As that Kevin P. dude jokingly asked, "could this be the start of professional XBOX Live gamers?" Shoot... if the highest prize is up to $1,000,000, I'm sure gamers will want to rack up money like PGA golfers. This is going to be big... no wait, understatement. It's going to be MASSIVE for XBOX racers. And if you don't like PGR3, you can always load up PGR2 on the 360, since it's reverse-compatible with old XBOX games.

Same here. I fell in love with PGR2 and even more with the Walk-A-Round the dealer feature. That just got me hooked.

Colour me impressed, I didn't know the xbox360 was THAT capable. :D. Notice the red ship, the xbox360 has hardware that enables it to do red, something the PS3 can't do. The red gives it more emotion, it's hardware can render shrek in real time, 3 billion times over, and as I said, it's emotional. Feel the emotion, you n00bs dont get it, the xbox350 does 8 nano flopticans, while the ps3 only does 8 nono flopcyles per decade. This matters. The xbox360 can also do 2 bleeps at the same time, something the PS3 can't do.

I have to laugh when people say that PGR3 looks like an xbox game, I mean I'm sorry, but you have to be bloody stupid to think that, heck I WISH my pc could do graphics like that let alone my xbox.
 
Well McLarenF1GTR, I heard that XBOX games will be reverse-compatible, but only certain ones. I think older titles like maybe HALO Classic, Project Gotham Racing 1, Dead or Alive 3, and all may or may not be reverse-compatible. I'm sorry I forgot to mention that in my last post. It just came to me.
 
Code, I agree with you on PGR3. It is beautiful. Sure, the video of the McLaren and the 3 others isn't as great as some videos, but the Murcielago, F430, and S7 is beautiful.

The short scenes of the Murcielago spinning around is right out of a movie. Its awesome.
 
Actually the 360 will more then likely be backwards since it said it was in a recent Time magazine article.
 
I really think you should give the Project Gotham Racing series a chance. It may be an arcade racer, but it is pretty fun at it. PGR3 actually looks pretty nice. And I'm sure that on the XBOX, you can't have fun with any game in the context of PGR without XBOX Live support. Imagine being able to show the world what you know about sliding out of control and kicking ass in races. Of course, make sure you can back that up without hitting any walls while doing tricks. The series isn't a Gran Turismo-type game series, but it is a series that adds a little innovation to racing games. Sure, you wouldn't slide out a Nissan R92CP around Special Stage Route 5 for style points and more money to tune your cars, would you? Before the PGR series, the last arcade racing game series I was into was the RUSH series. You know, San Francisco RUSH, RUSH the Rock, S.F. Rush 2049, not to mention the upcoming L.A. Rush (sounds like fun).

All I'm saying is that the PGR series is actually pretty fun. I like Gran Turismo, but I'll admit that there's nothing like what PGR has to offer. And come PGR3's release, even more people will probably love this series in much the same ways as Gran Turismo 4 brought in new fans to its series. I know I'll likely get attacked for typing this, but I think hardcore GT fans should really play at least a demo of a PGR game. If I thought it was fun, you probably will too.

So onto my next question for discussion. For fans awaiting GT5, do you think Gran Turismo fans should play PGR3 when it's released? Or should only "VelocityGirl" be interested in PGR3 and nothing else, as a racing game fan?
 
Vision gt was just a mock up from PD. I'm sure some of you have seen GT2000, it was nothing but gt2 running on the ps2 and it looks like ass compared to gt3. Wait till you see GT5
 
We already have about what? TWO threads on Vision GT? Yeah, Gran Turismo 3 was supposed to be called Gran Turismo 2000, or at least was the Working Title. I really think Vision GT is a concept of GT5. It is like a book. You have to decode what the next GT will have to offer. That's what you do with most bigtime games, since most franchise games will feature little features and Easter Eggs which may give you an idea of what's to come. For example, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City ("GTA: San Andreas" coming soon to you XBOX gamers) had a few motorcycles in the game. Come San Andreas, there are about 7 different types of motorcycles ranging from scooters to superbikes and sport bikes (my personal favorites). Same goes with the Vision GT demo. Think about it. Twenty or so cars on road courses, six or more on rally courses. But as some failed to realize, we didn't see much in terms of new cars, new tracks, or even significant graphical touches, yet we thought this would be the next GT. (buzzer) Wrong!

Project Gotham Racing 3 looks like fun. The newest car from what I've seen was the McLaren F1 GTR. This British beast with the heart of a German V12 seems to be in the game, not to mention the debut (or is it?) of Lamborghini to the series. I don't know too much on the PGR series, so don't knock me if I get something wrong. While many Gran Turismo gamers will hate seeing all or most of the cars that will be in PGR3 and Forza but not GT, PGR3 will feature the cars Gran Turismo probably will never have. It will feature perhaps a nice assortment of cities to roll around on, a great deal of tracks and race types, and all the nitty-gritty XBOX heads grown to love about the series for more than... how many years now?
 
To those who said that this looks like an Xbox game, quit being fanboy's.

This is much more detailed, higher textures, and appears to run at 60FPS. Reflections were great, lighting was MUCH better than any previous Xbox racing game.

To those who are commenting on it's "crappy physics". What you need to do, is learn to seperate. There are arcade racers. And there are Simulation racers.

For a simulation racer, you could complain, however, with an arcade racer, the point is not to make it 'as real as possible'. It is to give you a sensation of speed and provide fun.

With that being said. This game does indeed look good. I would grow to expect more from the final product.
 
if u guys want a good racing game for this racing gen and also beat the next gen of racing just go get GT4 it is by far THE best racing game ever besides from future GT series games. juts go get GT4 u will see how amazing and how it's so much better the any game microsoft can and will make.

You need to head back to English Class.

And BTW, this is about PGR3, not a comparison. Also, PGR series happens to be the best Arcade racing game for consoles.
GT4 is also not the best racing game. (And don't say Forza either Xbox fanboys).

You want a real racer that may already have other future racers beaten? Go out and buy Live For Speed, Grand Prix Legends, or GTR.

i agree, totally, i fuond it hard to get into GPL though and i didnt buy LFS but i played GTR numerous times at a frineds house and it is amazing..

i cant wait for PGR3
 
GPL is fricking awesome. Gt4 sits in my PS2 games wallet, unplayed for about a month now. It's dull.

Master Yoda is by FAR the most retarded person I have ever encountered on GT planet. Ever. Utterly.

The funny thing is that he doesn't realise that the PGR games arn't even made by MS.
