WARNING

Before playing this game, read the Xbox 360 Instruction Manual and

any peripheral manuals for important safety and health information.

Keep all manuals for future reference. For replacement manuals, see

www.xbox.com/support or call Xbox Customer Support (see inside of

back cover).

Important Health Warning About Playing Video Games

Photosensitive Seizures

A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed

to certain visual images, including ﬂashing lights or patterns that may appear

in video games. Even people who have no history of seizures or epilepsy

may have an undiagnosed condition that can cause these “photosensitive

epileptic seizures” while watching video games.

These seizures may have a variety of symptoms, including lightheadedness,

altered vision, eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking of arms or legs,

disorientation, confusion, or momentary loss of awareness. Seizures may

also cause loss of consciousness or convulsions that can lead to injury from

falling down or striking nearby objects.

Immediately stop playing and consult a doctor if you experience any of

these symptoms. Parents should watch for or ask their children about the

above symptoms—children and teenagers are more likely than adults to

experience these seizures. The risk of photosensitive epileptic seizures may

be reduced by taking the following precautions:

• Sit farther from the television screen.

• Use a smaller television screen.

• Play in a well-lit room.

• Do not play when you are drowsy or fatigued.

If you or any of your relatives have a history of seizures or epilepsy, consult

a doctor before playing.

YOUR GOAL

Life Begins at 170

If you’re ready for the ride of your life, you’ve come to the right

place. Welcome to

Project Gotham Racing

, home of more

than 75 of the world’s fastest, most expensive, and most

desirable cars.

Your Goal

Your goal in

PGR

is simple: achieve the Number One Driver

ranking, which identiﬁes you as the most skilled of

PGR 3

players.

Your Gotham Career rank and your Xbox Live® TrueSkill™ rating

are the ultimate measures of your driving ability.

Race in Gotham Career mode to increase your rank. To improve

your Xbox Live TrueSkill rating, race against others in Online

Career mode with Xbox Live. For more information, see page 18.

Kudos and Credits

The Kudos system, which rewards you for driving with fearless

style, remains the heart and soul of

PGR 3

. For more information

on the Kudos system, see page 8.

When your race performance exceeds expectations, you earn

credits, as well as Kudos, at the end of the race. You can use the

credits you’re awarded to purchase new cars that can be used for

both Single Player and online play.

If You Build It...

With the Route Creator, you can build your own custom routes

through any of the cities featured in

PGR 3

and then race against

your friends using System Link or over Xbox Live. For more

information, see page 24.

EARNING KUDOS & CREDITS

Kudos measure the style, speed, skill, and daring you demonstrate

when racing.

How Do You Earn Kudos?

When you perform a stylish maneuver during a race, you earn

a certain number of Kudos that are added to your Kudos Stash.

After about two seconds, the Stash moves into your Kudos Bank.

However, if you pull off another maneuver before your Stash moves

to the Bank, you can earn a Combo Bonus. The more moves you

can string together before your Stash moves to your Bank, the

more Kudos you earn for your Combo Bonus.

There’s just one catch—if you collide with an object before the

Stash moves to your Bank, you will lose any Combo Bonus you

might have been building. If you don’t have a Combo Bonus, you’ll

lose your Stash.

Maximizing Your Kudos

PGR 3

, the more you challenge yourself, the more Kudos

you can earn. For example, if you overtake an opponent while

competing in a Steel medal event, you’ll earn some Kudos,

but you’ll earn more if you execute the same maneuver while

competing in a Platinum medal event.

What Do You Do with Kudos?

When you earn a certain number of Kudos, your Kudos rank

increases. Your Kudos rank is like your report card—it’s how you

prove your worth to all of the other racers out there.

Each time your rank increases, you earn credits that can be used

to purchase cars. You also unlock concept cars as you progress

through the

PGR 3

ranks. For more information about earning

credits, see page 11.

EARNING KUDOS & CREDITS

Xbox Live Kudos

You earn Kudos when racing on Xbox Live in exactly the same way

you do in Single Player racing.

Maximizing Your Xbox Live Kudos

Obviously, racing with style and coming in ﬁrst are going to earn

you Kudos. But if you really want to rack up Ks, you should race

against more opponents, race against cars that are better than

yours, race against players with higher Xbox Live Kudos rankings,

and ﬁnish with a faster time than your opponents.

Xbox 360 Achievements

In addition to Kudos, Xbox 360™ Achievements give you another

way to track and recognize your progress in playing

PGR 3

You earn Xbox 360 Achievement badges when you reach key

milestones, such as earning all Platinum medals while using

manual transmission or buying every Lamborghini in the game.

You can view both the available Xbox 360 Achievement badges

and the ones you’ve earned by choosing Achievements from the

Main Menu, and then choosing Xbox 360 Achievements.

You can also earn Badges of Honor when playing

PGR 3

. For more

information, see page 11.

EARNING KUDOS & CREDITS

Earning Credits

In addition to earning Kudos to move up in rank, you also earn

credits that you can use to buy cars. The only restriction on

which cars you can buy is the number of credits required, and the

credits required to buy some of the vehicles featured in

PGR 3

run

into six and even seven ﬁgures.

You receive credits when you complete an event. The number of

credits you receive depends on the difﬁculty level you chose before

racing. The more difﬁcult the level, the more credits you receive.

Keep in mind that credits are cumulative. You can complete the

same event numerous times and earn more credits each time you

complete it. And, you can earn credits for completing both Single

Player and online events.

Earning Badges of Honor

New to

PGR 3

, Badges of Honor are awarded to recognize key

milestones in your racing career. You can check out your Badge

status by choosing Achievements from the Main Menu, and then

choosing Badges.

You can earn Badges of Honor in three different categories—Race

Craft, Career, and Online.

Race Craft Badges

Race Craft Badges of Honor are awarded when you complete

major milestones, such as 10 back-to-back victories or your ﬁrst

really long powerslide.

Career Badges

Career Badges of Honor are awarded to recognize your success

in progressing through Gotham Career mode. You’ll earn a Career

Badge, for example, when you earn all Bronze or all Platinum

medals in Gotham Career mode.

Online Badges

Online Badges of Honor are awarded to recognize key milestones

in your Xbox Live racing career. You’ll earn an Online Badge, for

example, when you earn a certain number of Kudos online or when

you’ve been on a winning streak.

GHOSTS & LEADERBOARDS

Ghosts

A Ghost, which is a replay of a previous race or Kudos event,

appears as a semi-transparent image of a car that races at the

same time you do. Your car can pass through the Ghost image

without crashing.

PGR 3

automatically saves a Ghost of your best performance in

each event, and you can always load the Ghost to race against it

and challenge yourself to new heights.

Why would you use a Ghost? Race against your friends’ Ghosts to

learn how they drove and which car they used to set a fast lap and

get the most Kudos. Then, upload your Ghost to show them who’s

the better driver.

With Xbox Live, you can always race a Ghost of the world’s best

performance for any event in Online Career mode.

Leaderboards

The Leaderboards keep track of Kudos earned both in Gotham

Career mode and on Xbox Live. If you are connected to Xbox Live,

you can check the Leaderboards before each race to see the top

players’ results (and where you rank, if you’ve previously completed

that event).

After a race, the Leaderboards are updated automatically, so you

can see how you compare to the top drivers. If you ﬁnish in the

top 10, your Ghost will be automatically uploaded to the Xbox

Live Leaderboards.

DRIVING VIEWS

PGR 3

features ﬁve different driving views. To switch among the

views while driving, press the left and right bumpers on your Xbox

360 controller.

Chase Far and Chase Near Views

Chase Far is the default driving view in

PGR 3

. Both Chase Far and

Chase Near views are helpful for beginners, because you can see

how your car is responding to your driving. For example, is your

tail sliding out when you take a turn quickly?

On-Car High and On-Car Low Views

On-Car High and On-Car Low are the preferred views of hardcore

PGR 3

racers, In these views, your car isn’t visible, but your

tachometer, speedometer, and current gear indicator are

displayed on the HUD.

Dash View

As its name implies, Dash view, which is new to

PGR 3

, gives you

a through-the-windshield view of the track ahead, along with a view

of your car’s interior and dashboard, including your gloved hands

on the wheel.

LIVE

GOTHAM TV

With a live news ticker and multiple channels broadcasting the

hottest Xbox Live race action, Gotham TV keeps you in the know

on all the record-breaking performances, white-knuckle races, and

other newsworthy events going on in

PGR 3

The News Ticker

When you are signed in to Xbox Live, the Gotham TV news-ticker

service displays a live feed of all the latest news from the

PGR

world. Using ﬁlters that are tuned to ﬁnd the race news you

care about, the news ticker will keep you apprised of your Friends’

performances and alert you when Gotham Heroes, the best of the

best, are competing in online races.

GOTHAM TV

Heroes Channel

The Heroes Channel broadcasts live races featuring the world’s

best

PGR 3

players competing in ranked Xbox Live racing events.

Players who are showcased on the Heroes Channel are

considered to be among the most elite

PGR 3

competitors on a

global scale.

When watching race events on Gotham TV, you can swap between

the drivers who are competing by pressing

.

Friends Channel

The Friends Channel helps you keep track of the human players

you’ve identiﬁed as Friends on Xbox Live.

Select this channel to open the Xbox Guide Friends list, where you

can ﬁnd out what your Friends are doing online.

And, if there’s a free slot in the event in which your Friends are

competing, you can jump in as a spectator and view all the race

action on Gotham TV. Your name will also appear in the game’s

lobby when the current event is complete.

Your Saved Replays/Your Saved Photos

As their names imply, these channels are the central warehouses

for all of the replays you’ve saved and photos you’ve taken while

playing

PGR 3

GOTHAM CAREER

Gotham Career is the main Single Player mode in

PGR 3

. It is

made up of 23 Championship Series events. Each Championship
