Here's what the racing genre has to offer in the coming year.

Upcoming Racing games of 2009

Fuel

Platforms: Xbox360, PS3, PC
Release Date: TBA 2009


If you like open world racing games, Fuel is right up your alley. This racer offers a gigantic world of over 5,000 square miles of variable driving locales, which features varied environments and dynamic weather, making this one of the most ambitious open world racing projects out there. The game offers a unique setting too - fuel prices the world over have shot up, and global warming's made the global climatic conditions volatile. You get pit against some of the most extreme racers out there, as you compete for the last of the world's petroleum so that you can keep racing. The volatile climate will allow for rather quick climatic shifts from torrential rain, to sunny skies, to tornado filled dust storms, offering a ton of visual variety ensuring that you never get bored while roaming the vast expanse of Fuel.

Burnout Paradise - Ultimate Box


Platform: Xbox360, PS3, PC
Release Date: February 2009


While I think Burnout Paradise is crap (Burnout Revenge was a so much better), most racer fans enjoyed its open world racing approach to no end. The game also received a ton of free content from the developers end, which is truly commendable. Attributed to its incredible sales, EA's decide to re-release the game this year in a package called 'Burnout Paradise - Ultimate Box' which will include all the downloadable content that's been released so far, which are the Cagney, Bike and Party packs. The pack will also offer a host of small tweaks to the gameplay; what those are though we can only wait and see.
