Test Drive Unlimited Info

By , About.com Guide

Atari has been tight lipped about Test Drive Unlimited since it was first shown last May, but a few new details have trickled out. A lot of people were surprised when it didn't make it in time for the 360 launch, but it looks like the extra development time leading up to the June 2006 release will pay off.

The game will feature over 1000 miles of Hawaiian roadway to explore as well as more than 125 licensed vehicles (cars and motorcycles). Each vehicle will also be fully upgradeable with licensed parts.

In addition to the standard single player racing there is also a feature called Massively Open Online Racing. In this M.O.O.R. mode, you can drive around and explore with hundreds and even thousands of other gamers. Yes, all of the other cars on the road in M.O.O.R. mode will be real people just like you. You can collect and trade rare performance upgrades with other players to create truly unique and personalized cars. Very cool.

Test Drive Unlimited is shaping up quite nicely. For more information check out Atari.com.
