Test Drive


These new screens from Test Drive Unlimited feature another car in the roster of the upcoming MMO Racing game - the Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione.

Only a few car brands and logos in the world invoke the emotion and recognition that Alfa Romeo does. Its history dates back almost a century to 1910 and is littered with accolades from racing professionals and awards for its technological prowess and unrivalled, precise engineering.

With the hundreds of racing professionals and experts praising Alfa Romeo as not only a company, but an institution, the Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione will no doubt be a car to watch for on the roads of Oahu this fall with Test Drive Unlimited.

bad graphics

the demo shows the real graphics, those "screenshots" don't look anything like the game, the graphics in the game suck.

The demo was a very early code of the game and looks nothing like the full game. The second demo will be a lot better.

beautiful

I agree that the E3 demo features "not so fantastic" graphics like PGR3. Then again after a few minutes of playing I couldn't care less. The demo plays well and there is a great sense of speed - which is very important. The screenshots here look very good though. We own an Alfa Romeo and I was really hoping to drive one in a game too (Forza 2 or TDU). I am definetly buying this game although I find it a bit stupid that we Europeans have to pay the full price - I would not care actually if the US version was the same price.

Looks like *****!

This game looks like a joke. It is less realistic than any racing game I've ever played. OK they want to show off the power of the console well do so by making it look more realistic not by making every car look like a mirror. It makes no sense how they can expect people to shell out more money for a game that looks worse than any other in the series. I have a feeling that ps1 games will be looked back upon as being more realistic than todays games. At least back then they tried to make it look realistic. Since PS2 there more concerned with making it look nice and look next-gen that they forget what people are looking for in most video games; realism. My rant is done.

..righty

so this is what 360 can pull off? i thought it was supposed to be a next gen console...yes this is an open world game..but surely better can be acheived..oh yea, the PS3

GFX? YUCK!

Grand Tourismo 4 with motion blur and bloom applied. They could atleast make the models smooth enough to not see such jagged polygon lines ahnd have the models have a smoother reflection and also a self reflection with how powerful the 360's graphics are so hyped up to be.

Not the console, the developer...

It's not the console giving us bad graphics, it's the Developers not investing enough into their games. Ubisoft games are looking good because of their investment, Gears of war will be amazing aswell. The PS3 has superior hardware, and it will kick ass, but we won't see much difference between them until next holiday season anyways.
