Project Gotham Racing (video game)

Bizarre Creations · 2001

Project Gotham Racing is a 2001 Xbox racing game developed by Bizarre Creations. It uses the Kudos system to reward stylish driving—power sliding, two-wheeling, and overtaking—with points that decay on collision. Players advance by meeting both speed and Kudos thresholds across three modes: Kudos Challenge (medal-based style events), Quick Race (five-car races), and Arcade Race (additional style challenges). It runs at 60 FPS and supports split-screen multiplayer.

Project Gotham Racing 2

Bizarre Creations · 2003

Project Gotham Racing 2 is a tightly wound, mode-structured arcade racer that asks players to master rhythm, timing and spatial awareness — not just acceleration. Its Kudos system creates a distinct performance grammar. Its fidelity is tangible: in polygon count, microphone count, and circuit variety. But it offers no narrative, no online play, and no cross-mode progression. It is a studio-built showcase — not a player-built world.
