Supercar Challenge – First Previews

Posted on December 14th, 2008 in Console

Following Ferrari Challenge, System 3 and Eutechnyx have announced a new racer for the Playstation 3 platform: The Supercar Challenge.

Rather than just focusing on the prancing horse, the Supercar Challenge will include sports cars from a wide range of manufacturers including Aston Martin, Lamborghini & Bugatti.

Like Ferrari Challenge, you better don’t expect this one to be a real simulation but more to be a Gran Turismo-like semi-sim. Below are the first previews courtesy of IGN.com, the graphics don’t seem to be up to GT5 Prologue standard though.

overall i agree with gtrNL my evo looks 20 times better than this :] the worst thing which i see on those pictures and some other games are those black stripes on the road (i think from rubber) on the second bottom screenshot you can see it – what the hell is this shit ? they should be more oval dont you think ? PS3 with graphics like this this is a joke :P
