Out soon, but where's the demo?

Some retailers have it listed for release this friday and others have it as next friday.

Eurogamer have a review out, but not seen any others.

Anyone else buying this? Tide us over to Forza3 hopefully.

It is this Friday. Originally was supposed to be 27th but it has been bought forward to 20th. Should have delayed it a couple of weeks instead tbh.

Not many reviews and stuff about for some reason. I suspect this will struggle to sell. Comes out too close to SF4, Halo Wars and Killzone 2 which all have larger console followings, I suspect.

I'm definately looking forward to this, I'm also looking forward to the definative version of the 'Ring when its downloadable :)
 
I doubt this game is going to sell well.

I haven't seen any marketing and no demo. I can't risk buying it really which is a shame.

Simmy games made by small devs never get any publicity. This game reminds me a lot of Ferrari Challenge on the PS3. Decent sim-like game, but never sold well and was overlooked by most people.
 
Knowing Simbin like I do I would Never buy a game of theres without trying a demo or a rental first. Simbin sux bad for customer/game support leaving there Paid customers hanging like a grolly from a toddlers nose.
Having said that if it is good I'll buy it & shout it from the roof tops as I love a decent driver.

I believe he was referring to the demo rather than the game :). Someone on another forum emailed Atari and got this response:

Good morning Michael,

We would love to give a date for the Race Pro Demo release but we are unsure ourselves. Please keep an eye on XBox Live and our website for more info.

kind regards

EDGE give it an 8 and say............
while it may not be quite upto the standards of the finest sim-racing titles on pc, it's arguably the closest a console effort has got.
 
had an email from 'not overclockers.co.uk' today, they've now changed it to 20th like everywhere else.

i might see if i can find an indie games shop selling it near tottenham court road on friday and get it before work
