BUT if you want this game get yourself down to Tescos! they are selling this game at the time of writing this for £23.00 it is a bargain!
I am glad i got it as well, the graphics are superb and it is just a fun classic rally game that will be fun on single player, XBOX Live or with your mates.
One question i do have though is there any difference in the different cars you can pick from?
It seems that some cars a faster than other but i am not sure. Can someone clarify that for me?
There are 4 main types of racing Championship mode which is racing different tracks against computer cars which is where you get to race fst on rally circuits and learn to master the power slide.
There is the time trial mode where you get to race times that have been set by others around the world. ( i think it is live from XBXO Live but i could be wrong as i’ve only had this game for a few hours)
Then there is quick play which lets you jump right in a test your driving skills on a few tracks.
Finally you can logon to XBOX Live and go head to head against others who are online.
For £23.00 it i great and well worth it.

After reading an article here: http://news.filefront.com/study-reveals-importance-of-xbox-360-achievements/
I couldn’t agree more that the achievements help to make the user want to play more but i would never buy a game purely based on the fact the game has more achiements for me to get.
I have never reviewed a game to see what achievements it has that just seems silly to me.
I do feel this is one area that the PS3 is lacking in.
The whole PS3 on line experience is in my opinion totally rubbish at the moment. that is not to say the XBOX Live is much better but out of the two i do prefer XBOX Live.

Why do the players when the ball has been passed to them wait for the ball every time? It really stops the run of play when you want to make a quick break. Is there a way to stop them waiting for the ball to come to them?
The goalkeeper AI is really really bad. The amount of goals scored from long range when the keeper is facing the wrong way is just plain stupid. Since when does a goalkeeper face the wrong way when the opposite team is racing towards goal?
What is up with the through ball? Is it just me or does it try and pass it to the other team unless the player you want to pass it to is in the box?
One major thing which i really hate is taking a free kick. I turn and face my team mate and press the pass button. It then passes it to the opposing team! Why does it do that?
Finally why is it when you really want to clear the ball and give it a good smack out of trouble that they touch the ball as if they are going to break it? I have lost count of the times ive needed to just clear it, but they just header to the opposite team for them to say “thanks ill take that” and put the ball into the back of the net.
Is it just me? Are there things i can do to stop these things fro happening?

It is supposed to be outstanding an with the upgraaded Xbox LIVE gameplay: PGR4 sets a new standard for racing on Xbox LIVE, allowing drivers to build a global racing community through team-orientated gameplay while making it easy to find their favorite races or images.
This sounds awesome so is it time to get to the shops and buy the latest PGR4 and start building up the Kudos?
Check out the trailer here: http://www.gametrailers.com/player/21477.html

Would you buy one?
I don’t think i would, it just seems to be a gimmick. I just don’t think i would use it enough to warrant buying it. The PC is for messaging my friends and rarely use the basic message features on XBOX Live let alone signup for MSN on the XBOX i want to play games!
Here are the features listed from XBOX:
- Chat on Xbox LIVE with ease featuring dedicated keys to letters and characters.
- Don’t hamper your style—the Xbox 360 Chatpad attaches seamlessly to your Xbox 360 Controller.
- Backlit buttons allow you to accurately type words even in dimly lit environments.
- Messenger Kit includes the Xbox 360 Wired Headset for the ultimate communication bundle.
It just doesn’t make me want to buy it.

I imagine it will be so much fun especially online when there others working in two’s to beat others.
The video was very funny and much more for adults what do you think?

To make it seem even better they have also launched some stunning adverts to entice you to buy it at www.halo3.com
The adverts are simple but very effective. Using emotion and detail they capture your mind.
Many people say that TV ads are dead – an opinion that I usually support. But they do work if you make something as spectacular as the Halo 3 ads. They are some of the best I have ever seen.
Every time you watch these ads you see something new.
