The leading worldwide developer and publisher of interactive entertainment software, THQ Inc. has announced that its Baja: Edge Of Control realistic off-road motorsport racing game is now available for popular Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 (PS3) and gaming system from Microsoft, priced at $59.99.



“Baja: Edge of Control offers a realistic simulation of a Baja race, where managing the vehicle’s tires, clutch and brakes at speeds of over 100 mph is the key to victory,” said Peter Matiss, Vice President of Global Brand Management, THQ. “For those that prefer to get straight into the action, the game also offers an arcade mode that removes vehicle management and focuses on the intensity of off -road racing.”

“Baja: Edge of Control delivers the ultimate Baja racing experience,” said Robb Rinard, Game Designer, 2XL Games. “For the truly hardcore, the game offers races that can last up to four hours across hundreds of miles of brutal terrain for up to 10 players online or 4 players via split screen.”

According to the company, “Baja: Edge of Control contains more than 1,000 miles of the toughest terrain Mother Nature has to offer, including the steepest mountains, thickest mud and deepest canyons ever created. With more than 160 sponsored vehicles in eight classes, including Trophy Trucks, 4x4s and buggies, Baja: Edge of Control features a full array of upgradeable options with hundreds of authentic parts that affect each vehicle’s performance.”
