    Project Gotham Racing (PGR) is a racing game, the first in its series, developed by Bizarre Creations and published by Microsoft Game Studios for the Xbox gaming console. The first title in the franchise, Project Gotham Racing, is an Xbox launch title that quickly became the second best-selling game for the console after '. PGR is a spiritual successor to the Sega Dreamcast game Metropolis Street Racer. PGR as of July 12, 2007 is compatible with the Xbox 360 through a downloadable update.

    Gameplay

    PGR differs from most racing games in that winning a race does not necessarily mean the player advances to the next round; instead advancement in PGR requires both driving fast enough to meet the challenge set, and scoring enough Kudos points to advance. Kudos points are gained through the player's driving skills, such as power sliding around a corner at speed, or overtaking other NPCs in the race.

    Cities

    There are four cities in total and each of them is split into 3 districts, they are:

  • London

  • *Trafalgar

  • *St. James's Park

  • *Westminster

  • New York City

  • *Central Park

  • *Wall Street

  • *Times Square

  • San Francisco

  • *Fisherman's Wharf

  • *Financial District

  • *Pacific Heights

  • Tokyo

  • *Asakusa

  • *Shibuya

  • *Shinjuku

    All locations, except New York City, were featured in Metropolis Street Racer, the predecessor to PGR.
