System 3 has published the Ferrari Challenge launch trailer. It shows some of the different in game cars, a painting session and then some gameplay. Other than the good graphics, this game has unfortunately not lived up the name Mark Cale would have want it to. Many owners have expressed utter disappointment with the general gameplay, AI intelligence and other features. If you like Ferraris, this is your game, but otherwise, it’s just another racing game.

Word has come from the Leipzig Gaming Convention 08 that Burnout Paradise will be finally coming to the PC in January 2009. EA was able to give some worthwhile details about what is in store for the upcoming platform release.

The PC setup at the EA booth was magnificent, with three monitors being fed simultaneously using a box from manufacturer Matrox. While the images from the side monitors were slightly stretched, the added viewing angle really made it easier to take down enemies. The PC version will also support the same camera functionality as console versions, meaning you’ll be able to use any USB webcam to capture images for your licenses and online takedowns. As for other PC features, the development team claims that it might tweak the single-player progression slightly, but it still has to finalise the details.

This is news most of us have looking forward to. Some details are still sketchy but we look forward to more. Here are some additional screenshots as well.

Well here is a video showing lots of actual gameplay from the Ford Racing Off Road game. So far things look really good. Graphics seem to be on par for a Ninento Wii game and gameplay looks fun. The real question now is how does it actually play. While we think of that, have a look at the video in the mean time.
