    Back before I had my XBOX 360 I was looking to get a racing game for the PS3 and remember seeing this one advertised and was disappointed to see that Read more

  • Concept of driving a CAR

    I bought Race Pro last week, i love Driving/Racing games but of all the games i have played, Why when playing this game is there NO Hand Brake? Plus the damage is rubbish. If you drive into a wall at 100mph you'd expect the car to have a ot more damage than whats on the game.

    Answered by nilufer 2009-05-07:

    It is not a very good game
