    Seems like Project CARS is becoming a victim of delays, as according to those scamps at Gamespot the game's now going to be out in Q1 2015, not next month as originally planned. While it's kind of nice that they've been open and said it was for competition reasons, it's a smidge disappointing, as Project CARS was looking like one of the games that was going to get me to jump into the current generation. Was anyone else here looking forward to possibly the most Drew and Danny game coming out?

    I feel for the Playstation racers. I'll bet Ubisoft is thrilled, though. They'll probably sell a bunch of PS4 copies of The Crew now.

    Smart move on their part. Forza Horizon 2 and Driveclub (despite how disappointing it may be) alone would have probably eaten into a nice chunk of their sales. Then there's also The Crew. It would've come out after Project CARS, but it's got that Ubisoft marketing budget behind it and Ubisoft knows how to fucking market some games.

    On top of all that, there's a handful of other preeeeeeeetty big games coming out so I'd be surprised if most people even knew Project CARS existed this holiday season. So, again, smart move.

    I can't say I was really looking forward to it myself, but it does look interesting.

    I read a preview of the game in Gamesmaster magazine that said the console versions looked a bit dodgy in comparison to the PC version. Wonder if this has anything to do with that.

    @babychoochoo: Objectively, it's a very smart move, especially after GTA 5 got scheduled to come out at pretty much the exact same time. Now they drop in to a nice, calm area where they can be the main focus for racing fans.

    Yeah, probably a smart move, but god damnit: when are we going to get a good sim racer on the PS4? I'm going nuts over here!

    What competition? On PS4 we have a broken racer that isn't very good. (I'm getting the game on PC but still).

    Wow. 2015 is either gonna be the greatest gaming year I've ever experienced or the most disappointing one if all these pushed back games don't turn out to be decent. Since DriveClub apparently wasn't very good, I really want this game to be great. Hopefully the extra time helps them out.

    Darn. That was my most anticipated game this year. Oh well. It makes sense. Out of all the games that are due out in November, this was definitely one of the least-known. I've never even seen an ad for it.

    On the bright side, there's one less game for me to buy in the coming weeks. Hopefully they can nail down a release date that puts them in a more comfortable place. I'm itching for a good PS4 racer. The Crew isn't going to be it. We don't have anything (I say that as someone who enjoys Driveclub. That shit's broken).

    Damn that sucks, but at least the Assetto Corsa 1.0 RC is out, that's more than enough racing game to last me to 2015.

    20th March.

    Also I agree about The Crew.

    Well, bugger. It really is a dry spell for racers.

    Well, since some of you guys here are WMD members (myself included) you probably knew that they were going to delay it already - that game isn't anywhere near to being finished just yet.

    I know I can't really complain since I help fund it and have access to the game. Yet, I appreciate the honesty that they didn't want to get their game drowned out by the noise other racers are making this fall, and are tightening up the overall experience for those who are looking forward to playing it.

    Disappointing, but after sinking about 100 hours into Forza Horizon 2 since release this would have been a game I would wait to buy anyway.

    "Hey, Project Cars is out. What are you doing?"

    "Playing The Witcher III and Bloodborne."

    Namco Band'oh!
