Microsoft to Continue Project Gotham Racing Series


Following yesterday’s announcement of the acquisition of Bizarre Creations by Activision, everyone wondered what will happen to the Project Gotham Racing series. Is it destined to follow the same path of RalliSport Challenge after EA bought Digital Illusions?

Microsoft has announced that it plans to continue the Project Gotham Racing series on the Xbox platform since Microsoft Game Studios owns the intellectual property. However, the publisher didn’t clarify if Bizarre Creations will be the developer of future PGR titles.

Does this mean that Microsoft's Turn 10 studio, the developer of the Forza series, might take on the job?

Xbox 360 to be console loser

Microsoft needs bigger international base

"Microsoft needs to greatly boost sales outside of the US or it’s going to go from being the most popular next-generation console to being the least popular in just a couple of years. Some recent sales figures claim that the Wii has already surpassed the Xbox 360 in units sales. One of the biggest console markets is Japan, a market both the original Xbox and Xbox 360 have failed to crack."
