Video: Tesla in Project Gotham Racing 4 ad
Recently, we told you the 2008 Tesla electric car would be in the Xbox 360 video game Project Gotham Racing 4. We even showed you a few behind the scenes videos of the commercial, featuring Tesla tearing up a city street. Above is the finished version of that commercial by Microsoft.

This actually isn't a very good commercial. It doesn't do anything to show that you can race 100+ different types of cars and motorcycles on tracks in and around cities all over the world, potentially in adverse weather conditions (snow, rain, etc), rendered with amazingly realistic graphics.
Take a look at http://uk.xbox360.ign.com/articles/815/815639p1.html to see what the game's really about.

I'd be more likely to buy the game for the sole reason that this is my cheapest chance at trying out a Roadster. good move by Tesla and Microsoft.

Is it just me, or did the Tesla make engine sounds?
Overall, seems like a pretty lame commercial.

It was a Ferrari F430(I think) racing with a Mercedes SLR, followed by the Tesla racing with a motorcycle. If you listen closely, you can only hear the bike's much higher typical whine that dopplers as it goes off screen, and nothing when the Tesla zips by.
All in all, it is a pretty weak ass commercial.

You are right, Tesla did not win. Corrected.
