They've been making the rounds in Middle-Earth (or magazine land) for a while now, but finally the first Project Gotham Racing 4 images have made their way on to the Internet.
As you can see from these screenshots, the big feature in PGR4 is the gorgeous weather effects, with water that beads realistically on the paintjobs, sprays from the tires and causes madness in the in-car view.
Also promised for the fourth installment are over 200 racetracks from ten different locations and a broader set of vehicles, ranging from the vintage '63 Corvette Sting Ray all the way to the slick Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano.

According to magazine reports we might have to wait until next year before PGR4 races into the shops, but in the meantime you can always make do with Forza 2 which lands on Xbox 360 next month. Read our recent hands-on with that here.
