Project Gotham Racing 3 came out in 2005 for the Xbox 360 and the career mode consists of 23 different championships. Here you can see me completing the Manhattan Time Trial and the Downtown Showdown Cup (championship 5 and 6) on hardcore difficulty.

The PGR games are arcade city track racing games and they always seemed pretty awesome but I never got to play them when they were new, since they are exclusive to Xbox. Now that I finally have access to them I am excited to discover them. However, as I can't run the original Xbox games without issues I am skipping the first two games for now and going straight into PGR 3. This game runs very well and it's a lot of fun for me, so I will actually record my full playthrough of the career mode.

The career events in PGR 3 are not restricted to a particular car class and the AI in races will use the same class as you, so you could go straight into the fastest car class from the beginning if you wanted to but I think it's more interesting to slowly work my way up, so I will try a few cars from each of the classes.

In this video I am doing championship 5 and 6 with Class D cars. The first championship consists of some timed challenges in New York and the second one consists of races, also in New York.

The first event here is a "Time vs Kudos" challenge where you have to earn kudos (style points) by drifting to stop the clock from counting down for a few seconds.

One interesting thing about PGR 3 is that it features a lot of obscure cars that can not be found in a lot of other racing games. I will try to focus on these cars in my playthrough.

In this video I am using two of the most obscure cars in the whole game with the Farboud GTS and the Elfin MS8 Streamliner. According to IGCD the Elfin is not featured in a single other racing game at all and the Farboud is only featured in PGR 3 and in the TDU games (renamed to Ginetta F400 in TDU 2).
