If any soon-to-be-released game makes our inner graphics whore light up to the same degree as Project Gotham Racing 4, we’re yet to see it. Bizarre’s racing title (and Xbox 360 exclusive, let’s not forget) is pure car porn, and today another dozen screens plopped into our inbox.

Sure, they’re a touch on the arty-farty side, particularly those black-and-white efforts, and yep, they’re all shot from obscure angles for maximum glamour. But good heavens, those rain effects are truly something else, no? We’re not usually ones to eulogise over racing games, but we must applaud Bizarre’s efforts in this instance. Over to you, Gran Turismo 5.

Of course, the weather is a major component of this new PGR. It’s dynamic, see, and can change over the course of a race from sun to rain to snow to hail, while both fog and ice can also play a part.

But enough of such meteorological musings - check out the screens below to commence gawping, and make the jump for two older videos of them weather effects.
