  • When do u unlock the Radical in career mode? Please answer :D

  • Reviewer cannot into gear changes... you don't rev it right up to the rev limiter before you change up. Also this is a simulation and designed to be played with a wheel/pedal set, although not everybody can afford one of those obviously... Still, solid review

  • When you steer, after you finish steering, the wheel justs straightens immediately. WTF to that.

  • @RobloxLambo2011 well, it also happens in a real car lol

  • Best racing game on consoles period

  • How come this game was a 360 exclusive? This game would have been AWESOME on PS3 or even on PSN.

  • this year will appear GTR3 soo, stay tunned

  • 3:09

    Holy crap look at the 'car behind' time D:

  • I prefer PGR 4, but this game is pretty good, it may be low budget, but it plays rather well, and its not for beginners.

  • @SLRMC93 if you prefer PGR 4, you should try forza 4.

    i tried pgr 4 and im not wondering why microsoft gave up the pgr series

  • @Xzibitfreek I play Forza quite a bit, and the only reason I like the PGR series is because of its car list, and physics, its rather fun to play after you sink some time into it.

  • @SLRMC93 lol forza has all cars of pgr4 and in my opinion its way easier and more fun to drive on forza 3.

    it doesnt feel realistic at all but its fun

  • Just looks like Toca Race Driver 3 but with a graphics upgrade, and that game has a huge variety of cars and race types. Might rent this out though.

  • this game is hard! my favorite cars are the formula bmw

  • @MatthewCeltic1991121 well you drive in it...

  • Looks good. Getting it soon! Plus, I've bought a converter for my Logitech G25 so it can be used on the 360. I've got GTR Evolution on PC and it's great, very realistic.

  • I just got it for only 10 euros.

  • @juge27 me too.

  • I have race 07 for PC. That is like, hyper-realistic driving when you turn assists off and use a wheel.

  • @BenTheEpic u should try GTR Evolution and Race on cuz the extra cars for the game are awesome!

  • Race Pro is a very underrated game. I think that it is better than forza in my opinion since i own both games. Forzas graphics are defantely a little better but overall i like how the cars handle in Race Pro, and there is a wider variety of being able to tune and setup your car exactly how you want it. If you havent tryed it i would defanately recommend getting a copy of the game since it is only about 15$ used at most game stores.

  • I don't know why they couldn't make this for PC and PS3

  • @vipersickboy24 there is a pc version for this game it's called Race 07 and then there is GTR Evolution and Race On which are kind of expansion packs

  • @mailmeonline race 07, GTR evo and Race on have nothing to do with Race Pro. they're just made by the same company. I'm just saying it's a shame it didn't come out for PC as well

  • @vipersickboy24 well... they are kinda the same, same cars, tracks, almost the same name. It's not exactly the same game but they just didn't put a career mode into the pc version.

  • I have this game. It has amazing physics, and the graphics looks sunning on an HDTV

  • @thnk4urself: gt5p has better physics???? are you drunk????????

  • Graphics bad?

    Glad some of you didn't grow up with Genesis/atari.

    :x

  • I hate how it's an exclusive. it has very good physics. The only game that definetly has better physics is gt5p. Ferrari challenge maybe. any game at that high level of physics is gonna be awesome

  • I bought this 2 days ago, and this is BY FAR the best racing game I have played on a console. Makes Forza feel like you are driving on air. The feel of the cars is unbelievable. Yes, the graphics aint great. Yes, your single seaters have slicks in the wet (but handle as if they are on wets) this aside, look at the meat of the game. Nothing compares on a console...

  • shitty quality made for funny purpose

  • i bought this and the same day took it back because its terrible the driving/racing is shit game all i ever buy is racing games and its the only one ive took back

  • @mattnicholls1992 You must be one of those guys that feels powerful when you win on easy with all the assists on.

  • nah not my type i prefer midnight club la or dirt 2

  • @ilikebumfluff yeah it is a pretty complex game

  • @ilikebumfluff not really...someones not gonna like it

  • i no, gt5 will be awsome in 3d

  • @ 3:11 "Car behind: 0:00.666" OH SNAP!

  • It's NOT great. Worst driving game I ever bought. Well up until Burnout Paradise that is.

  • I love how you always have it as a minus that no new game runs on your Atari 2600, or 7800, or 5200, or the Sega Genesis etc.

  • its okey but there are something bad on that game emm I prefer forza motorsport 3

  • HA! Bilsport!

  • when i first got this game i thought the graphics where crap, it didnt look like a xbox 360 game at all, it's like a ps2 gtaphics style. But now i've played for quite a while i kinda like it now. :)

  • Played this at the MPH show in birmingham ages ago, didn't like it.

  • I found this games career mode to be too drawn out and repetitive. I found it hard to stick with it - it didn't really offer much incentive to keep going.

  • The sound is awesome, better the Forza2 or 3 even. I don't know I've never played before and I have shitty speakers so I can't tell.

  • it does not have handbrake in-game WTF!!!!!!!!!! this game sucks

  • This game is crap....dont buy it full stop....buy Forza... or need for speed shift. Its the worst racer i have ever played dont waste your money!!!!

  • @kinesas101 What type of controller are you using? "Visually" this game isn't as polished as some of the others out there (NFS Shift comes to mind as one of the best cockpit experiences on any console at the moment). However..., this games strength is in the physics. The graphics are so so at best.., but with a racing wheel the game is way more enjoyable. I've found that the analogue controller with this game isn't all that great.

  • @squeakD Hi squeakD thanx for the info...Its not theController thats the problem its the game, and everything about it, I just dont like it...Graphics are Garbage and so are the car sounds...It says on the back of the box...Nothing gets closer...race pro brings you every detail...B.S...I think forsa kicks it to the Kerb all the way...But not everyone is like me if you like the game enjoy it, I have one here you can have I used it once...Never again...

  • @kinesas101 I learned a long time ago to never trust the marketing hype ;-) I certainly agree with you in several areas though. The graphics are quite poor.., and upon first playing the game I was dumbfounded that this was a NEWER game (2009). The car sounds do indeed sound very digital. However.., I use a Racing Wheel.., and that's where this game shows its strength. It has really good physics. Forza-3's ok.., but it too has some problems. (I also have both Forza 2 and 3).

  • This racing SIM isn't too bad. The graphics are just decent at best. As the reviewer stated the strength in this title is in the driving. The physics engine is really good.., and to really get a feel for the physics you MUST use a racing wheel with Race Pro. Race Pro IS NOT an arcade racer. It's a true racing SIM running on a console. It's worth the money IMO (especially for a used copy). One area that really bothers me is the crash physics.., a little over the top for low speed contact.

  • What would happen if Simbin and Codemasters work together and possibly make the best game ever? Well, besides the crash animations, Simbin really needs to work on a couple night stages like Special Route 5 where we can finally turn on our car lights and hit top speed. And license some descent music too.

  • this game is based on the WTCC so it has all the WTCC tracks from the time

  • don't know whether to get this or not.

  • @Dimebag204 get it if you want a realistic fun game, if you want supercars all the way, get forza or PGR, but this game is awesme

  • i like this game, but compared too simbins games on PC it has no chance!

  • i like free drive games where u can drive where ever u want there sooo much more fun

  • @OlleSoderstrom97 agreed aye

  • Lol and they called this next gen graphics xD

    but hell... the gameplay is the best part

  • only 8-10 cars on track wtf? le mans on dreamcast had 24 cars. race driver 3 had 20. sick of racing games with small grids.

  • @dan1576 no, theres 16

  • hey guys Im looking for a racing game for the 360 that has customization, music, and is cheap.

  • @GuyPagani best thing xbox 360 got is forza 3

  • @deathtsunami oh ok thanks!

  • @GuyPagani welcome

  • FORZA 3 !!!

  • This is by far the best Sim game on consoles.

    Period!!

  • lol?

  • Wow, cool to see this game reviewed by my favorite reviewer.

    I just picked up Race Pro for the 360, as there aren't many actual sim console options. I didn't even realize Simbin had a 360 game until recently, and I got it dirt cheap too.

    Simbin, btw are a real authority on sims.

  • So is it good?

  • Is all the Gt car unlocked when u first play like corvets and vipers?

  • @xxadamxx0001

    No, you have win races to earn them. This game is very difficult to play unlike semi sim Forza 3

  • looks ok but not great

  • @matawin2

    Yes, but the ones for the Computer, are fun as hell.

  • @matawin2 yeah. forza is better

  • @matawin2 Simbin's not about looks, my friend, they are about simulation.. and they do that better than almost everyone. Unlike games from the likes of EA and Codemasters, Simbin actually try to make a game for the racer, not for the money

  • @RogueAutomotive i disagree, they make games that are fun to drive, not everyone is looking for a simulator, they tend to be boring compared to a good arcade racer with some realistic qualities like codemasters does, but i do agree that EA is crap

  • @roush26 ea had good games on the ps1. the 1st and 2nd need for speed were much fun

  • @matawin2 Sim's arent about graphics.

  • This is a lot better than the other racing shit out there. And the graphics aren't terrible - who really gives a shit about Hi-Def graphicvs anyway?

    SimBin > Forza.

    End of story.

  • Alot of people do.

  • This game is cool, it's worth playing.

  • I got the game just yesterday on eBay for like £5.00

    I'd say that it's pretty worth it.. Just waiting for the game in the post & my refurb Xbox 360 from the repair center now lol

  • what did you expect from simbin

  • The spedometer covers up the rear view mirror. Nice touch atari.

  • @nsasigintel you can turn off that hud while racing u dumbass

  • From a professional driver's perspective, which has the best driving/simulation physics?

    Forza Motorsport 3, Gran Turismo 5 (prologue?), or Racepro?

  • lol at "professional driver's perspective." All you need to do is google each game and take a look at what's going on under the hood. The best one's RacePro, which should be expected as it's made by Simbin- the developers behind the GTR series for PC.

  • @essboarder23 forza3 for physics but racepro is pretty close if not the same... it's a toss up, but forza3 has better graphics and it also has drift physics.

  • gt5 doesnt neccessarily have the most realistic or satisfying handling, id personally give the nod to race pro over forza, but as an overall package gt5 easily trumps all of them, both graphically and quantity of content

  • How do you know GT5 doesn't? The game isn't even out yet.

  • what song  0.10

  • True I am a Kart racer myself I have Rfactor and a Logitec G25 it works great and is a big help and great fun when your freinds cant drive the cars and it makes you look like a god :)

  • sorry youre the retard, games can be realistic, and some drivers can use them as training, get your facts straight

  • Yes games can be realistic but i think its better to make games fun and leave the reality in the reality ... You know what I mean :D:D

  • Thats true, you have a good point :)

  • @MARTOMASTER i dont think so, because in rality you cant race a car at 300 kmph, so some people want a realisticgame

  • is that why many state police use driving sims to train new officers

  • Hmm. A kid with games console gets a hand on a proper race sim and still uses joypad for the review.. On top of that he manages to mention the lack of storyline and declares it a disadvantage..

  • we have to remember that not everyone is a sim enthusiast like us. a review has to be for everyone.

  • This is like grid but i like grid better

  • i'm a 360 owner, but i can't find a good race game like Gran Turismo.

  • Forza 3 comes out in 3 weeks. If ur a GT lover, then that is a must have.

  • have you played the demo of forza 3? it sux the handling is retarded

  • why do you think forza's handling is retarded? it feels like the most realistic handling in a game so far.

  • I used to love forza.. RacePro is far more realistic then forza. Although imo racepro's only flaw is a little too much understeer. But other than that its the most realistic

  • that is true, thats the problem with racing games for people that just play Need for speed games. Most cars wont hit 250 m.p.h. and corner that fast. forza and other simulators try to make racing as realistic as possible..

  • @TheMachRider lol. Wow GRAN TURISMO has better physics and graphics are more realistic with the shadows and everything. Im not a fanboy. i have just done my research.

  • I said "feels". To me, the feeling between car and road is better simulated in Forza than in GT. I'm not a fanboy of either, in fact I'm currently playing Forza 3 and Gran Turismo on PSP right now. It's all apples and oranges

  • @ooaregbesola Dude, this is a proper sim, they don't care about graphics, and no, the physics in this are better in GT.

  • Polyphony, Atari, Polyphony or Atari? Which would I rather choose? POLYPHONY of course! Atari sucks these days.

  • @tacomanfan344 no not Atari, SIMBIN, they make proper sims, not like PD.

  • Actually, Atari only published Race Pro. SimBin created the game and they are pretty awesome when it comes to PC sim racing games. Can't tell you if Race Pro is any good though... Looks a lot like Race 07 for the PC which is pretty good. I don't blame you though on your choice between PD and Atari. If it was just straight up Atari, I wouldn't touch it...

  • If you think that forza's handling is retarded then you must be retarded.

  • No infact I have many hours on real tracks in S. florida in multiple porsche's and bmw's 325is full blown race car and an e36 m3.. 05 400hp STI.. 76 carrera.. im not an armchair racer like the majority here. :)

  • who gives a shit what its like in real life?? forza handling is awesome from a gaming perspective. i personally dont like race pro but thats me.

  • @Drkadrk You obviously haven't driven a car.

  • it's a very nice game very realistic driving.

    and the ps3 fanboys please stfu oke?

    we dont wanna know that you THINK that gt5 or something is best etc.

    just stop being ridicously gay and get a girlfriend oke??

  • "stop being ridicously gay and get a girlfriend oke??"?????? Your grammar and spelling is quite a terrible achievement. You really need to brush up on it. Also, don't use words that you don't know the meaning of.

  • i know my grammar isn't very well.

    but you know what i mean so stfu

    and i know the meaning of everything i said.

  • No. You dont know the meaning of gay.

    What do you think it means???

  • looks pretty shit

  • There is only one racing game.

    GT5

  • Really!? A PS3 Fanboy that probably goes around looking for good 360 games to bash. This is an amazing game and you PS3 fanboys just can't handle it. Will you ever stop?

  • I guess the same can be said about the Xbots and there relentless snobbiness over Forza...

    I won both systems so i get the best of both world 8) GT, Forza, Race Pro, Supercar Challenge

  • To bad that boath ''future'' consoles suck ... PC gaming owns evrything else =D

  • AMEN i hate ps3 fanboys.

    u suckers should shoot urself!!!

  • I buy the game Jesterday ist cool ;))

  • i jus got this game..... first day i raced it on Professional and this game taxes all ur skills. first i thought the game ddnt look good but after the first three race i really ddnt care this game is GREAT

  • this is a simbin game, one of the biggest pc sim game makers, the simbin series have been going a lot longer than the Toca Series and i would say that Toca is a rip off of Rfactor a the simbin game that Race is based on

  • Tducentral..u got the point of this game..playability! thers people in the pc-version sayin..byebye..ive bought Grid etc...then 2 days later..uuh opps hi its me again..im back....slimey glamgraphichs DONT DO A GAME. will people ever learn;)

    glad you do atleast.

  • mark what you should be amazed about his how good the physics of this game are, I've never played a game with such realistic physics. extremity hard and rewarding, this game is made for people who want a training simulator. I love this game, picked it up for $20 used, awesome.

  • oh yea its a keeper : )

  • blackholesoul...ok must have misunderstood you;) but this looks better than it did on my mates dark sluggish (supertv..) (but pc-version is evil good!!

  • Thay Made pc version before they made the xbox one

  • ya if you play need for speed or midnight club, i can see where it would be too hard.

  • No i paly forza 2 and Grid. And i think need for speed and midnight ciub are bad games. have you seen NFS shift it looks Crap.

  • Great review as it concentrates on driver-view mode, so you can really get a feel for what it's like to play. This looks better than I expected given the mixed reviews, I'm going to buy it.

  • dude you can change tire / engine in the first forza aswell xD

  • Does this run constant 60fps?

  • The thing about GRID is that it is unique in the way it makes you feel like you are going fast when your in an Audi R10, whereas in Forza, or also in the GT games, you can go 210 mph and not feel like your going fast.

  • on play(.)com - the () you can get GRID for £9.99(uk money) witch is about $16.38(usa money) is it worth it?

  • 16 dollar? thats about 14 euro??? two months ago i paid 36 euro for grid... you can buy it, really good game

  • grid is an ok game but forza is so much better i think grid looks great but controlls are way to arcady.

  • thats how I feel about DiRT, I like it but I just wish it was more of a sim. I think race Pro is a better game then Forza, I like all the cars and customizing you can do but, race pro is over the top with its realism.

  • Race pro - Grid - Forza 2

    Which game should i buy

  • forza 3

  • When it come out, of course

    Forza 3 gonna own so hard

  • first grid, then forza 3 or colin mcrae dirt 2 when you like rallying

  • Forza fool

  • @Respekt0

    Forza 2 b/c it has lots of classic cars

  • looks like its for pc

  • It was for the PC then it was ported to the 360 I think

  • I just bought this game because of this.

    I love it's it's very challenging, and i think it gives GT4/5 a run for it's money.

  • maybe the graphics arent as good as GRID but this game has such a great driving physics.....

  • Race Pro > GRID

  • Forza no way better than pgr

  • wich one is best forza 2 or this?

  • Forza

  • wich one is best NFS SHift or Forza 2?

  • Forza 2

  • Forza 2 by far.

  • "This wont work in your atari 2600.

    I tried"

  • wtf it looks like crap compared to gt5 and forza

  • Who cares how it looks.. its a car simulator... better one then Forza or GT5 at that.

  • thats funny....
