Unlocking Cars and Circuits

Initially, you can choose from among four cars when you take to the streets of four
photo-realistically detailed cities in 

Project Gotham Racing. As you progress, you’ll

unlock sleeker, more desirable cars, more challenging circuits, and a few surprises.

Bronze, Silver,
and Gold Medals

In 

Kudos Challenge, Quick Race, and Arcade Race modes, you earn Bronze, Silver,

and Gold Medals based on either your Kudos score or your race results.

You must earn at least a Bronze medal in each event in order to progress through
each of the Levels in 

Kudos Challenge, Quick Race, and Arcade Race modes, but

you’ll soon discover the benefits of pushing your performance to the limit.
Consistently earning Silver and Gold medals can translate into additional rewards.

Total Kudos, Time Played, & Total Miles Bonus Awards

In 

Project Gotham Racing, you earn Bonus Awards based on:

· The total number of Kudos you’ve cumulatively earned in 

Kudos Challenge,

Quick Race, and Arcade Race modes

· The amount of time you’ve spent playing the game

· The total miles you’ve driven in all of your cars

Your Total Kudos Score is displayed in the lower right corner of most game
screens. All of this information is also tracked and stored in your Driver. When
you hit a major milestone related to these vital statistics, you unlock a great
bonus award.

Getting Started

Welcome to 

Project Gotham Racing, the Xbox racing game where driving fast with

skill, style, and dexterity are the ultimate measures of your racing success.

The first time you start the game, you are asked to create a new Driver.

Your Driver keeps track of your progress through 

Project Gotham Racing; it stores

your helmet style, license plate, and other vehicle preferences. It also stores the
details of your on-track performances, including Kudos scores, medals earned,
record lap times, total time played, total miles driven, and the cars, circuits, and
other items you’ve unlocked.

As you play 

Project Gotham Racing, your progress is saved automatically at key

points throughout the game.

To make changes to your Driver once you’ve created it, choose Driver Manager
from the Options menu.

Once you’ve created a Driver, the Main Menu is displayed, offering a range of
racing experiences. For a summary of all the Main Menu items, see page 12.
