Test Drive Unlimited Comes to Playstation Portable

Atari today announced the launch of Test Drive Unlimited for the PlayStation® Portable (PSP®) available now at retailers across Europe. Already available for Xbox 360™ since September 2006 and PC and PlayStation 2 following launches earlier this month, Test Drive Unlimited has won the admiration of critics and gamers the world over, setting a new standard and re-defining what is possible within the racing genre. With no compromise between the PSP game and the next generation version and unique WiFi online gameplay, Test Drive Unlimited is racing reinvented.

With more than 1000 miles of open Hawaiian roadways, Test Drive Unlimited for PSP has easily the biggest road system ever on the console, fully streaming with no loading times. With cars from over 30 of the world’s most exclusive manufacturers including Lamborghini, Aston Martin, Mercedes, Saleen, Shelby, and Jaguar, there’s plenty of incredible machines to take for a beach-side cruise.

Ground-breaking online functionality delivers unique gameplay possibilities, allowing gamers to join with thousands of others via any WiFi spot, while up to four players in one location can compete in ad hoc competitions via direct WiFi connection. The new ‘Quick Race’ instant-play mode lets players generate a limitless number of fresh challenges, while the Master Points system lets players earn points for winning races, air time, and drifting, then use them to unlock new races and challenges.
