GTI Club+ dated

By Tom Bramwell Published 27 October, 2008

Just over a month away.

Konami has said that its upcoming GTI Club remake will be released for PlayStation Network on 4th December for the previously announced price of GBP 9.99.

GTI Club+ is a 720p retooling of the hot hatch Cote d'Azur runaround that had the pounds rolling in at arcades in 1996, and runs at 60 frames per second.

It's also got the old Mini Cooper among its five cars, and features online play and even Sixaxis and PlayStation Eye support. Good to see them getting work.

What's more, it's been put together by SUMO Digital of OutRun2 on Xbox fame, among other fames, so it might be worth a look.

You can check out our GTI Club+ hands-on preview to see what we thought about it when we got a chance to play it recently.

Alternatively, you can check it out at the Eurogamer Expo this week because, yes, it's one of the many games playable at the London event. Which we will eventually shut up about, we promise.

    Yes. SUMO are highly competent devs, so I expect nothing more than FUN, in huge letters. If loads of people buy it, maybe Sega will give them a call again, and get them to work on a XBLA/PSN Outrun or Daytona. Either will do, but Outrum would mean more to me. C2C defines 'f**king awesome' for me.

    NW - can you imagine, 16 racer Daytona / SCUD Racer with eyecam support?

    Why that would be more fun than would be legal...

    I wonder if this has FF wheel support...

  • jonsaan #4 3 years ago

    I'm truly hyped for this.

  • mkreku #5 3 years ago

    Am I wrong in remembering a really wooden driving feel in this game? If it's the same that was in the arcades here in Sweden..

  • pjmaybe #6 3 years ago

    Wooden in what way? It had a pretty slidey arcade feel to it, heavy on the handbrake. The setting / track made it and it looks like that's been ported wholesale into the game which is good.

    The "bomb" mode was also great fun for multiplayer

    A proper conversion of SEGA Touring Car and Scud Race next, please!

    Anything Sumo seem to be involved in turns out well. Good news.
