Another week, another studio update...

Things are really starting to get busy around here now. I think some of the Gotham guys have actually moved into the office; forgoing any previous social life they may have had. There are more and more dark rings around eyes as the days pass and deadlines loom closer. That said... I'm just the simple web site guy, so I escape all of this hard work! In fact, I've spent a large portion of this week wandering around the office with a camera, snapping anybody who looks like they're doing something interesting.

Earlier in the week we had a bit of excitement; the sound guys and gals were out the back playing with air horns! I scampered out there with my camera to get a piece of the action. There was definitely some kind of strange audio ritual occurring (which I didn't fully understand)... but here's how it went down: A couple of the guys ran about on the grass, blowing air horns like their lives depended on it. Then they all looked at each other, shook their heads in sync, and ran in a different pattern around the grass. The world of video game audio is a strange and scary place!

A bit later in the day, we had a bit of a congregation out on the grass again. We needed some sound effects recorded for the crowd, so a gaggle of Bizarre employees were hastily assembled. Everybody huddled around a huge microphone, whilst instructions were issued - things like "shout, but make it sound like you're laughing" and "stop being so happy"! If you listen carefully when you get your mitts on the polished game, you might hear some genuine bona-fide real-life Bizarre employees in the stands!

Oh, I almost forgot. Here's another image stolen from the PGR3 internal diary; feast your eyes on this. We present... a close-up shot of some of the buildings in NYC! If this doesn't get UK:R excited, I don't know what will!

EDIT: TO ALL YOU NON BELEIVERS, THIS IS NOT FAKE. THE FOLLOWING IMAGES ARE THE WIRE MESH FORM OF THE PHOTO REALISTIC IMAGES, REALEASED BY DEVELOPER BIZZARE!!!

I can't wait for this game. It will be the first game I purchase on launch day. Hopefully it lives up to all the hype (which isn't near as much as the Halo 2 hype but still) and even surpasses it. I can't wait to hear oh so much more about this game in the next issue of OXM!!!

There is a big debate going on about those screens. Bizarre says they are real!!!
Egads!!!

I think that's a real shot just not one from the gameplay. I'm also going to say that the gameplay will look like that by the time it is released, but that's just my thinking.

Buildings look amazing, cars look ok, but nothing special.

ha, in the pgr 3 thread I said it was definitely a photo... lol, but I still guarantee that the gfx will not be that good when it launches. Split screen that and it'd be laggy as hell on any system you can put out for $300 bucks. I don't care.

Ok. If you guys thought that Gotham TV is cool you have GOT to check out this article straight out of BizarreOnline.net. Heck even if you don't think Gotham TV is cool you still need to check this article out.

Some SAWEEET new info!!! (http://www.bizarreonline.net/index.php?action=fullnews&showcomments=1&id=35)

I cannot wait for this game!!! Most Def the first game that I will be buying for the 360 hands down.

I just hope they make the gameplay more like pgr1. It seems they may be focusing too much on graphics and all these silly little online extras. If the gameplay sucks the rest will be pointless.

if i could figure out how to turn a car without smashing into a wall every time, I'd SOOOO buy this game:D

and the only reason people think Halo2 sucks is that all the whiners are on forums posting about how horrible the game is, while everyone else is online PLAYING it! Same thing happens with all the big releases--battlefield 2 is another example. Message boards are full of people *****ing and moaning, but everyone else is online having a blast :)

you guys have to remember that the only way to see 360 graphics in their true form is to have a beast, high quality HDTV.

Yeah, and by the sounds of it, it can't be a crappy 1080i only TV like I bought. It looks like atleast the first bunch of games will be 720p and you need DLP/LCD/plasma or something similar if you want 720p. 1080i is easy to find and even somewhat affordable, so hopefully devs will support it also. Otherwise I'll be playing 480p for another year and a half :cry:


ps Those gfx just kick@ss. Driving games always look good, but thats just too realistic. Sort of like some of the HL2 building pictures compared to real buildings only the PGR buildings are even better.
