THQ
have announced MotoGP
'06 for the Xbox360 has been delayed, and is now scheduled to
release in May, 2006, in the UK. Presenting an unprecedented level of realism and sense of speed,
this latest addition to the critically acclaimed MotoGP
franchise also incorporates the very latest 2006 Race Season 
information to create the most up-to-date and intensely realistic
Racing game on the Xbox360.
"It's
exciting for us to present Xbox360 owners with the most exhilarating
racing experience available and one that genuinely raises the bar of
photo-realistic gaming," said Pete Murphy, Global Brand
Manager, THQ Inc. "The developer, Climax, has combined an
unprecedented level of detail, sense of speed, and the very latest MotoGP
Season content to create a game that will appeal to MotoGP
fans as well as those gamers craving the most thrilling
racing-experience on Xbox360."
"The
powerful technology within the Xbox360 has enabled us to create
visual effects that surpass anything that we've seen in the racing
genre to-date," stated Jason Avent, Game Director, Climax.
"The latest addition to our MotoGP franchise has seen a unique
implementation of depth-of-field within the graphics engine that
allows us to simulate different focal lengths. We're extremely proud
of the fact that ultimately, the screenshots will speak for
themselves!"
While
the delay is disappointing, THQ are clearly not prepared to release
anything other than the best MotoGP title so far. With
THQ’s reputation ever-increasing since 2004, and their promising
line-up for 2006 – including The Outfit and Saint’s
Row on Xbox360 – you can rest assured that this is one title
that neither Climax, nor THQ will allow to fall onto retail shelves
unnoticed.
