I just got Project Gotham Racing

**faceoff508** · 05-20-2002

I just got Project Gotham Racing, and it si pretty cool! I just have one question.. is unlocking the cars hard? Or will it be very hard? I was just wondering!

**wweomaniac** · 05-20-2002

I got Rallisport on Friday... So far.. I've unlocked half the cars. The game is wicked fun!! Y didn't you get that instead? Its way better.

**faceoff508** · 05-20-2002

It was a tough choice but Gotham had brand name cars so I bought it!

Both are killer. PGR is a little frustrating at times, but stick with it. Actually, the more you race the larger the game gets, more tracks, cars, etc.

Both PGR and Rallisport are great games. Personally, I think Rallisport is a better game, but, that's just me. I prefer having the ability to get out of the city.

But, PGR is a killer game, too...and, yes, it's extremely hard. It starts becoming very challenging once you get the Skyline...it's pretty much an uphill battle from there on

But is it frustrating?

faceoff I am going to be honest with you....I have played many racing games in my console life. None have ever ****ed me off more then PGR, this game has a great look and feel to it, but the difficulty is so annoying, that I returned the game and got rallisport! This games will make you break stuff! The best hint I can give you is get the car with the best handling because speed dosn't matter in this game you can beat the entire game with the first car you start with. This game is really weak and lacks balance, my suggestion is to give it up before it is to late!

Nah, don't worry Faceoff. I bought PGR at launch and it definitely got its money's worth. Yes, its hard and challenging, but once you've given it time, you get pretty good at it. I personally don't like RC that much, but PGR is the schiz. Only beef I have with PGR is that replays are kinda lame.. its always the same camera shots it seems...

Anyhoo, there are 2 cars I've been unable to unlock (the 2 from the last 2 arcade races), the rest were pretty straightforward. Yes it can be frustrating.. the AI plays like a friend would play.. as in they knock you and try to spin you out, etc. You just have to make sure you look at your rear-view before turns to make sure you ain't gonna get nailed

i traded bloodwake for it (definitely good trade)

but I havent gotten it yet... I hope it's not too frustrating... when I rented it it seemed pretty hard at first... do i just suck at it or is it hard at the beginning?

Its pretty hard at the beginning. Once you start unlocking some faster cars things start rolling. After playing for a while, you kinda get this 6th sense for when to brake, glide, power-slide, etc...

Oh, cause in the beggining it took me a long time to finiish a race! And one more question: How do you get Kudos?

Skidding, passing cars, going through zones without touching the walls, etc...

If you subscribe to OXM, theres a vid of a "perfect run" on the may demo disc.

**faceoff508** · 05-20-2002

Its up to you in the end.. I enjoyed PGR quite a bit and it gave me a good 30 hours or so of gameplay just to unlock all the stuff. And all in all, it was great fun! Sure it did get frustrating at times, but not more than every other game out there. Thats my opinion.

**faceoff508** · 05-20-2002

Thanks, I think I will stick with this game!
