Microsoft's flagship racing game Project Gotham Racing will be seeing a brand new version this fall. PGR3 was a pretty successful launch title overall, but what can we expect from #4? Weather, that's what...

From the press release:

• Enhanced Weather Simulation- “One of the slickest new features in PGR is its weather. Bizarre’s using what it likes to call ‘extreme weather’ for more than just making the sky gray. Water beads up on beautifully on all the gorgeous paintjobs, spray jets out from the tires, and in the in-car view, wipers move and windshields ice up.”

• Enhanced Raceway Environments- “A TV-style intro sets up each event, with a commentator offering wisdom...Choppers buzz overhead, camera crews and video vans are everywhere, and hordes of fans line the track. They’ll wear gear with your logo, wave your national flag, and react far more obviously to your performance.”

• Extended Car Selection- “PGR4 will deliver a much broader set of vehicles, ranging from a vintage’63 Corvette Sting Ray and the ’54 Maserati 250F to the sleek, ultra-modern Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano.”

There's also supposed to be support the the Xbox camera, but I have no clue as to how that's supposed to work.
