Race Pro for Xbox 360 offers a mixed bag of racing experiences, with something for both casual players and seasoned veterans. With a wide variety of cars, including high-powered GT cars and production cars, players have the opportunity to race in different championships like WTCC and Formula 3000. The inclusion of real-life tracks from all over the world, such as Macau and Porto, adds an authentic touch for racing enthusiasts.
One of the standout features of Race Pro is the inclusion of all the WTCC cars from manufacturers Alfa Romeo, BMW, Chevrolet, and Seat, making it a must-play for fans of the series. The ability to race against high-powered opponents in online play via Xbox Live or System Link adds an extra level of challenge and excitement.
For those who prefer a more social experience, the Hot Seat feature allows players to take turns in the driving seat, demanding quick reactions and precise racing skills. This feature is perfect for friends or family competitions and adds a fun twist to the gameplay.
However, despite these positive aspects, Race Pro falls short in some areas. The graphics are not up to par with other racing games of its time, lacking the level of detail and polish that players expect. The controls can also feel unresponsive and clunky, hindering the overall enjoyment of the gameplay.
While Race Pro does succeed in providing a nostalgic feel with its range of cars and tracks, it fails to deliver a truly immersive and satisfying racing experience. Overall, the game receives a rating of 3.5 out of 10, reflecting its shortcomings in graphics and controls. Despite its flaws, die-hard racing fans may still find some enjoyment in the variety of cars and championships available in Race Pro.
