6 cars Every month!! YeY!

Test Drive Unlimited still howls its engine to leave us once more considerable images. If the first batch is connected with pretty renders, the other gathers images directly drawn from the play. Without forgetting some infos. But initially, here some infos which reached us: - Whereas we know already the presence of imposing Lamborghini LM002, we know from now on that it will not be the only SUV of the play. Moreover, we even have just noted the appearance of a record player which is the SSR! - According to Joystick, new a pack paying of 6 cars will be available each month for one 12 months duration after the exit of the play. One would arrive then at total downloadable contents of 72 cars! Nothing is thus sure as for the credibility of this information since one envisaged at the beginning about thirty downloadable vehicles for a total of 125. - the clubs will have a limit of 16 registered members. - We had to speak about reserve of vehicle in our preceding article. And well will know that one will be able to make only one reserve in real time. Impossible to have more than one reserve at the same time. It will be thus preferable to reflect well before your purchase. - a beta-test of version PS2 started. But only the inhabitants of North America have the right to be registered there - If the exit with the re-entry 2006 is almost certain, all the sources supposing an exact date are different. Others envisage even an exit Xbox 360 advances some for September compared to the other versions which would leave only in October. I also could contacted, in an indirect way, a person having insisted with a conference of Eden Games and goes back it to exit PC would be for next 26 September. To confirm. - Lamborghini Diablo WP, Chevrolet C6 Corvette, Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible and Chevrolet SSR Pickup Convertible were added to our list of cars. [ Edict ] We thank Pierre to have pointed out to us the new presence of Saleen S281 Convertible on one of these new images. Xboxyde batch Batch ingame [ Edict ] Batch moreover: Heading TDU



I just got this artical and translated it. Sounds pretty good

Well no, because even if they are on PC, once they are out, there will be mirrors for them all over the net.

Question

I thought there would be UNLIMITED vehicles hence the name? Just 125?

Gran Turismo 4 has over 500. So why can't TDU which will be supported for years not have more than 125.

Why not UNLIMITED?

In French translations of GT, words come out as WP.

Look at the cars called with WP, and then look up the real models.
Ford WP=Ford GT
Alfa WP=Alfa GT
And so on and so on.

GT4 doesn't base its engine on a free roaming world.

With all the tracks combined, it doesn't take up half the disk space unlike Test Drive: Unlimited. Not to mention, car interiors, damage, dealers, and more "according to detail" is a lot more space.

I was talking about downloadables, not in the disc.

There's 72 cars planned. Add that to the maximum of 90.

That's 162 cars for 1 year. That's more than enough to tide people over given this game is free-roam and online.

yeah

just remember that Gran Turismo had 500 cars but loads of them where off-road or bad cars (like the yaris ect.) that noone would ever buy. TDU has 90 cars that most people will want and they are all exotic supercars not yaris' ect.

Thats not really a fair comparison.

You get interiors in TDU as well as 1000+ miles of open road and next-gen graphics.

Wellwell, you are all right... But from what i read when i first heard of the game, it said 150 or 125+ cars.. So I am a little dissapointed. But still, this game will rock !

As Understudy said, many are still in negotations.

During May 2005, Atari was probably expecting 125, but throught the year saw that some companies aren't as easy to please.
