Summary
Developed by French studio Cyanide, the Cycling Manager series now ranks as one of the key brands in the sports genre for PC and PSP and is enjoyed by hundreds of thousands of players across Europe.
The management side of the game has been given extra depth with many new elements. It has an entirely new stamina system, a more realistic progression curve for each rider, a complete skills editor and a new young talent recruiting system with a more aggressive AI.
This year, the racing is even more realistic, with a reworked feeding system, an enhanced game interface and the most advanced rider AI yet plus highly detailed rider models and animations. The 2008 edition also includes a new improved user interface, lighting system and more detailed, richer environments with a large variety of buildings and landscapes.
For the first time in the series, impressive track racing events are available. Choose track events such as cycle speedway, Kierin and elimination to challenge your team?s track racing skills. All of these features combined make this new edition the most complete and exciting recreation of professional cycling.
Far from just a simple port of the PC version, the PSP version of Pro Cycling 2008 has been specially designed to make use of the unique features of the Sony PSP while offering optimised gameplay. Racing is the true attraction of this version thanks to the ability to participate in the greatest international cycling competitions, including the new track races, and the Tour de France 2008 which has been faithfully recreated. So choose the team you wish to bring to the top amongst one of the 18 official teams available and all the star players. This 2008 edition lets you challenge your friends in multiplayer mode via the PSP WiFi features.
