Top Gear turns to game reviews

MCV Staff 22nd January 2010 Retail

The web portal of global hit BBC TV show Top Gear has introduced a new games review section that, unsurprisingly, focuses on driving simulations.

The section is currently headed up by Microsoft’s Forza Motorsport 3, which scores a more than respectable 9/10.

Others games currently listed include Need for Speed Shift, Colin McRae Dirt 2, My Sims Racing and F1 2009.

The BBC show has not been afraid to associate itself with gaming in the past. A previous feature saw Jeremy Clarkson race a Honda NSX around California’s famous Laguna Seca circuit and subsequently attempt the same challenge in Gran Turismo 4.

The Top Gear test track will also be one of the featured courses in Gran Turismo 5, whilst episodes of the show will be available via the GT5 video download service.
