Ford Bold Moves Street Racing
About the Game
Ford Bold Moves Street Racing is the third Razorworks -developed title in the licensed Ford Racing series since they took over development in Ford Racing 2 . Unlike its predecessors, this version has an urban atmosphere. The road races, off-road challenges and circuit tracks have been removed and the action has been taken entirely to the streets of Los Angeles, with 24 tracks available. As in the previous version, the 18 available cars are all Fords, ranging from the 1968 Mustang GT to the 2007 Shelby GT 500.
Gameplay & Core Systems
Solo Racing offers quick races, and championships where new vehicles and tracks can be unlocked. The real novelty is the Team Racing mode, split up in single races, team championships, challenges and tutorials. Team Racing has players control two or three vehicles in a single team during a race in modes such as Race, Elimination or Duel. The team with the highest point total wins, so players either has to switch between the vehicles to drive (the others cars then become AI-controlled) or issue orders such as Block (slow down another vehicle) or Draft (additional speed in the slipstream) to influence the driving behaviour of the team mates. Blocked cars have to brake and weave across the track until they regain control.
