Competition is always good, especially when a certain genre' or specifically in this case, a sports genre' has been dominated by a certain franchise. I visited the O-Games booth to see two titles, one being Superstars V8 Racing, and John Daly's ProStroke Golf. Although it was just past alpha stages, it was pretty cool to see John Dalys ProStroke Golf because it heightened my interest in golfing games because I thought it offers something newer and more intriguing than the competition. Check out the video of my visit to the booth and the interview I did with one of the developers on hand as well as full details and a press release by clicking Read more.

On Nick's Gaming View Episode #15, I cover this week's latest news including information on Hulu coming to the PS3 and 360 and events including my impressions on PlayStation Plus. I interview Al Baron, Product Line Manager for Polk Audio, and we discuss the role of audio in the gaming industry. I also talk about console exclusivity this generation and why it only hurts the publisher. Lastly, I close it out with what really grinds my gears.

While I was at E3, I made it to an appointment I had with the publisher O-Games. They had SuperStars V8 Racing on deck and I managed to get some video of the game being played and an interview with Jerry Whitehead, the Senior PR Manager. The game is developed by Milestone and I am sure glad I was able to see SuperStars V8 Racing because by the time I was done with the interview, I was completely sold on buying the game when it comes out, purely based on what I saw while I was there at the booth.

The first thing I noticed when demoing the game was its pick-up and play mechanics. Just watching it being played also made me assure that me as whatever gamer I may be, can pick up the controller and race for a few minutes, or go headstrong for a full career mode if I was a hardcore racing fan. The game will feature top class production cars in the 3000cc to 7000cc range and will have up to 18 vehicles on track in every race. You can go head to head online against up to 7 other racers. Players can also switch modes into simulation mode for an even more realistic driving experience while racing in the best circuit tracks in the world.
The game is licensed by the Italian Championship Racing League and will carry a hefty amount of sponsors and car manufacturers including: BMW, Audi, Jaguar, Mercedes, Chrysler, Chevrolet, and Cadillac.
Heres my favorite part of the game: it's Cost. A game with such dynamic and in-depthness, all for only an MSRP of $19.99 and a release date of August 3, 2010. But dont take my word for it, watch the video above and you make the decision, I've already made mine.
