First Screens of PGR Devs' New Racer 'Blur'

by Nick Breckon, May 20, 2009 11:24am PDT

Related Topics – Blur, xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PC

The first screenshots of the new racer from Project Gotham Racing developer Bizarre Creations have been officially released.

Appropriately blurry shots of Blur.

Announced yesterday, "Blur" will set itself apart by "making racing 'fun' again," according to Bizarre. The fun will be supported by 20-player online races, 4-player split-screen racing and a social "Custom Groups" feature that allows for custom, sharable multiplayer modes.

Blur will be released this fall on PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

If those effects are really in-game..then awesome.

What else would you expect to see on racing game screenshots?
You see cars...you see the enviroment, you see crashes and effects. That's always what you see on screenshots.

NFS shi(f)t seems to be another shit boring game compared to FUEL and BLUR.

I guess BLUR will be about pickuing up powerups. However I hate it when those pickups appear in semi colored glowing shit models. Totally kills grapics.
Let's see how it will turn out there.

Meh, I think most of these arcade racing games suck ass. The only good one is Wipeout. The reason being that they don't go with believable driving physics. All this drifting through city streets at 200+ km/h with lots of motion blur sillyness just isn't my thing. I think Forza has the balance between realism and "fun" perfect; the cars handle like real cars, the car settings have appropriate effects, and the telemetry data is also realistic, but not so detailed that I don't bother looking at it.

Is the game trying to stay lower res to support a huge environment or split-screen? The close-ups just don't seem as high fidelity as other racing games (cars, environment, etc.)
