Activision Officially Announces Bizarre Creations' Blur

scoopex · 19 May 2009 at 15:09

Activision officially announced today Bizarre Creations’ Blur, the first racing game this British studio is creating after it was acquired by the world's largest publisher. The developer of the Project Gotham Racing series is mixing racing action with offensive and defensive attacks to create an action-packed racer.

Blur's unique feature is its community-based interface tied to a story-driving social network that evolves dynamically as players compete in different races, make new friends, rivals and fans, and connect with other racers both in-game and in real life.

The game will feature a single player campaign but its longevity lies in its multiplayer mode, competitive and team-based multiplayer races with up to 20players online, or on a single console via 4-player split-screen

Sounds interesting

Was hoping for PGR5 though

So it's another Burnout?

I was hoping for something closer to Carmageddon rather than Burnout. Offensive and Defensive, Didnt realise that was part of burnout

It was so greatly unappreciated back on the Dreamcvast and later Windows and PS2 ports.

unusual, or sounds it at least..

This sounds pretty weak. PGR4 is absolute class, I hope they don't stop making it.

McManicMan · 19 May 2009 at 17:44

Apparently Activision want Blur to be the CoD of driving games.

They wont make another PGR, its a microsoft IP and as they are no longer part of MS they cant do PGR5. They can do a game like it though and MS can get someone else to do PGR.
