You just installed Windows 8, and now you're looking for something awesome to do with it. What could be more awesome than a high-fidelity water racing game?

I'll tell you what would be more awesome:

TWO high-fidelity water racing games!

This last week Vector Unit released both Hydro Thunder Hurricane (published by Microsoft Studios) and Riptide GP onto the Windows 8 store, and the reviews have been great!

Until last week Hydro Thunder Hurricane was an Xbox 360 exclusive, and now for the very first time PC players around the world can get a faceful of jet-fuel-scented spray with this faithful port. It even includes all the content of the 360 "Tempest Pack" DLC. Hydro Thunder Hurricane offers a classic-arcade racing experience for hardcore and mid-level players.

Riptide GP has been making waves on Android and iOS for about a year now, but this is the first time it's been released on the Windows platform. Riptide GP offers intense hydro jet racing action mixed with high flying stunts and awesome ragdoll wipeouts. It's easy to pick up and play for beginners, but challenging to master for expert players.

Check them out in the Windows 8 Store today!
