gt - Image 2What's so special about the GT Pro Series aside from the fast cars, cel-shaded style, stunning graphics and gameplay? Well, it's the very first to have a Wiimote peripheral that's not developed by Nintendo and specifically designed for the game: the steering wheel. BUT before we get into that, let's go over some of the other important game details via IGN's interview with Tats Myoio, Associate Producer of the GT Pro Series, shall we?


Gameplay Modes:

Championship mode - the classic one where you race with others to get to higher levels and get to unlock cars, parts, and tracks. You may have to use specific cars for some of the series.

Quick Race - as the name implies, just go out into the track and race any unlocked car of your choice.

Time Attack - race without competition with the option of creating a ghost and racing against it.

Versus mode - allows you and three of your friends to race on the same track via split-screen.

Drift mode - similar to Time Attack but with the goal of creating as much drift combinations as you can.

Replay - you can save and view any of your races.

Cars, Cars, Cars: Cars in the lineup are all Japan-made: ASL, Daihatsu, Honda, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Mitsuoka, Nissan, Subaru and Toyota. The game will also have Skyline R34 GT-R, RX-7 and Lancer Evolution, as well as a wide variety of cars from exotics to minivans. There will also be 11 different upgrades to customize and enhance the looks and performance of every car.

GT Pro Series as a Drift Racer?: Tats Myoio says nope, because you won't be forced to drift race, it's only an option in the game. The Drift Mode requires you to make as many drift combos as possible but it's not required in completing the game. In this sense, Tats says that GT Pro Series is designed to please both drifters and non-drifters.

Tilting the wheel will also tilt the wiimote and the steering wheel further adds to the whole driving experience of gamers. Aside from GT Pro, the wheel will also be compatible with another Ubisoft Wii title, Monster 4x4: World Circuit. IGN also notes that Excite Truck, Cars, and the racing portions of Sponge Bob will work with the wheel attachment.


What GT Pro Series won't have/support: Unfortunately, there will be no progressive-scan feature in the game as well as online features. What the game will have though, is the multiplayer mode on one console. As for the WiiConnect24 download service, Tats did not confirm anything about GT Pro making use of the service for downloadable contents.

This game reminds me of Auto Modellista(Capc om's cel-shaded racing game). It looks like it could be a fun arcade game.



The only thing that will be a let down is that it has no online play. It would suck if you and your friends want to play, but you all have to play on one screen. I would be cool if they have system link or something so each person can get their own screen.



As for the cars, Japanese cars are cool but I wish they had a more veriety. Just like in Gran Turismo, I don't think people would want to play with minvans.



I might consider this game a rental. Looks fun, but is lacking in multiplayer.

# Did you even read?Guest 2006-09-09 12:30
Did you guys even read the IGN interview QJ took this from? Many questions or complaints you said were addressed in it.



For one thing, this is based on a JAPAN ONLY game that came out on the Gamecube so that's the reason there are only Japanese cars. But the interview also said there are other import cars to choose from as well.



As for the graphics, they said it will look better than the GC game and that they are going for something different than the other racing games out there by trying a different kind of cell shading. I'm sure the finished game will look great in motion.



And as for online play, there have been no announcements for that so far according to the developer in the interview.

now that IS multiplayer. You seem to forget that you can accually invite people over to your house instead of sitting alone playing with people miles away from you
