Although footage from “Project Gotham Racing 3″ was shown as part of the video montage released by Microsoft, it was notably absent from the Microsoft booth. Many gamers were disappointed to have been denied the opportunity to “test drive” PGR3, as it is shaping up to be one of Microsoft’s flagship releases for the Xbox 360 console. “Perfect Dark Zero” was another notable absentee, with neither film footage nor trial gameplay available at TGS 2005.
