Posted by Deadly Cyclone at 12:29 PM

The newest installment from the team behind the legendary PC Sim racing series GTR, Race Pro, is looking every bit as good as the previous games. While it may not have the GTR name, the game remains true to its predecessors with more customization than you can shake a stick (gear shift) at. The GT and Forza series' have some serious competition.



"Atari is revving it up with the announcement of the revolutionary racing video game RACE Pro. The ultra realistic simulation racing game is scheduled to speed into stores in November 2008 for the Xbox 360™ video game and entertainment system from Microsoft. Developed by renowned AAA game developer SimBin, a leading creator of PC racing simulators, RACE Pro brings SimBin’s formidable skill and know-how to the console for the very first time."

Here are a few of the game's features:
• Thrilling Driving Experience: Players will feel every bend and burst of acceleration as well as every emotion from pre-race tension in the pit lanes to exhilaration on the podium.

• Unrivalled Racing World Realism: Users will be deeply immersed into the racing world with ultra realistic car models, official championships and tracks. Participants work their way up the leader boards through intense training, winning key races and securing valuable sponsorship deals.

• ‘Hot Seat’ Feature: Brand new to RACE Pro, this feature brings social racing to the living room for the first time as players are put in the ‘hot seat’ for a limited amount of time before passing the controller to the next player in the ‘hot seat,’ accelerating the pace of the game with quick reactions and precision driving.
