Remember how Tesla apparently outed Gotham 5 yesterday? And remember how Microsoft blanked it?

Ruffian’s just posted the following on its Twitter account:

“Brum brum! Screech! Mmm, I love the sound of a Tesla in the morning.”

Mr Tesla appears to have got his wires crossed. We’ve just had it confirmed by Ruffian that the recording session was actually for Crackdown 2. Some of the Ruffian guys worked on Gotham 4, innit. Tesla and Agents for the win.

Quarterback is toast, etc.

Update: They’re watching, kids.

Xbox UK head Steve McGill’s told MCV that PGR4, Mass Effect and Halo 3 – the latest three games to be included in 360′s Classics range – are “perennial” titles. He may well be right.

“These latest three additions are some of the very biggest and best blockbuster games available on any platform,” he said.

“Classics as you’d expect don’t normally generate the kind of pre-orders you’d see on triple-A new releases, and are instead steady, valuable and evergreen titles that we know customers will perennially be interested in and will continue to engage with.”

The titles are now £20 a pop in the UK.

Live’s Deal of the Week this week is The PGR4 Premium Challenge Pack.

Normally priced at 400 points, it’s now available to Gold Members for 240 points, a saving of 40 percent.

That’s literally amazing. Get your 360 on and save pounds pounds pounds, right now.

UK developer Bizarre Creations has confirmed that there’ll be no more DLC for Project Gotham Racing 4 on the company’s official forum.

“Sorry, but you won’t see any more PGR4 DLC from Bizarre Creations,” said a spokesperson.

“We’ve handed over the reigns to Microsoft now. It’s possible that they may create some more content in the future, but we haven’t heard of anything in the pipeline I’m afraid.”

So there you go.

Full details here of two packs of DLC for Gotham 4, some free, some not. All available on February 14. Here’s what to expect.

Free Challenge Pack (Free)

“Download the new Free PGR 4 Challenge Pack from Bizarre, and you’ll drive the hydrogen-powered 2007 Peugeot Flux, winner of the 2007 Peugeot International Design Competition. Plus, you’ll get two new game modes-one of them the player-requested Tourist Mode, which lets you tool around any city in the game checking out sights with your friends. Or play Free Roam Cat and Mouse, where a slow mouse vehicle must avoid enemy cats. And you add another 10 achievements. Get more racing fun for the best price-free!”

Premium Challenge Pack (400 points)

“The Premium PGR 4 Challenge Pack from Bizarre, available for 400 Microsoft Points, gives you seven new cars-the 2008 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible Concept, 2007 Volkswagen Golf GTI W12-650, 2007 Peugeot Flux, 1987 BMW M3 E30 DTM, 2007 Ferrari 430 Scuderia, 2008 Honda S2000 CR, and 2008 Callaway C16 Speedster. You get three new bikes-the 2007 Yamaha YZF-R1, 1995 Aprilia RS 250, and 1998 Aprilia RSV 1000 Tuono R.

“Plus, new World Challenge Arcade Mode gives you 20 arcade events in 3 themed chapters, including 5 events that can only be done on platinum. In Tourist Mode, get a free ride with friends around any game city. In Free Roam Cat and Mouse, a slow mouse vehicle runs from enemy cats. Ten new achievements fill out the pack.”

Go look for yourself. Plenty of stuff there to keep you happy.
