First PSP screen shot in new EGM
This months EGM has what they say is the first screen shot for a PSP game which is tentatively called The Lord Of The Rings: Mordor GP. It's a cart racing game. When I first saw it, I got excited because the graphics look incredible, but then I noticed I was reading the April issue of EGM. They are known for thier little April Fool's jokes. Looks like this may be it for this year since this shot has not made it to any web sites I know of yet. FOr those who have seen it, what do you think?

Yep. They've been donig this for a long time. The first one I remember was unlocking Sheng Long in Street Fighter 2 for SNES.

Glad to hear they're also making one based on the book license too... hopefully it will be more accurate!

Almost better than the concept of LOTR Kart racing itself, is the last paragraph:
In a related note, VU Games has announced that it too is making a kart racer for Rings, based on the book license, for release around the same time.

I'm not really into racing games so I don't get what's so funny about the "GP" at the end of the title.

It's not the GP part that makes it funny. There is a racing game series called Moto GP. Where as the title of this "game" is Mordor GP. That alone makes it pretty obvious it's fake.

Thanks noonan4224 and PixyJunket. I guess I wasn't exagerating when I said I'm not really into racing games.

Aww you were supposed to post this news as real news. Then it would have got everyone freaked out saying "they ruined LOTR!" and others saying "PSP will own GBA! look at those graph-X!!"
