that's fantastic!
Now Project Gotham which was a sorta special series can get watered down into oblivion by shitty yearly releases. YAY!!
I'm guessing that BC doesn't own the PGR name, much like Rare with Banjo K.Quote:

This is terrible news. Activision is so terrible.
This is quite unexpected, and a bit sad. Sure, there's a chance they'll bring back the PGR-style gameplay with the MSR name (possibly, didn't Sega own the rights to that, leading to the PGR name in the first place?), but no matter what they name their signature racing series, it'll be hurt by the lack of the PGR name.
MSR2 became Project Gotham Racing on the Xbox, because Sege still owned the rights to the name.Quote:

You have to wonder if this is even a legit title though. Wii HD-DVD?
Yes please.Quote:

Edge had a great article on the making of the game. *-neo
Is it wrong to say that MS should've bought them up?
