i am enjoying this game a fair bit. have finished all single player races with 3 stars just trying to organize some night where 8 of us can get together and race

if anyone wants to join in. gt is DeadlyBLitZ, i have about 6 perople on my friends list now that have it. so getting 8 people together at one time isnt to far away.

imo - if you perfer racing games like forza and such, i think you should stay away from it. but if you like blur and even older games like nfs most wanted, i think you will like it. some races are hard yes. but stay at and learn from your mistakes and you will get it.

Definately a buy from me, when they fix things up with the multiplayer on the next patch it'll be sweeter than ever. I deffo feel I got my moneys worth

It's pretty good graphics, I like the darker looking game with some bright lights/turbo. It was kind of fun being able to break through things that normally would make me crash.

Other than that, the controls were very difficult and I didn't even finish the race. I would drift and be facing backwards. I know it was only 1 race and of course would eventually be able to handle it but...I don't know, was just a demo and I wasn't going for achievements. I am not a big fan of racing games anyways so it just wasn't for me.

After playing the demo yesterday morning, I went out and bought it. A bit of a challenge in some places but still a very enjoyable game...

It's a good game. Controls are simple and Domination/Shindo races are good, fun events. The cars are cool and the track creator is simple as well. Anything the developers have made, you can make too. And there are definately some amazing tracks made on this game...

However, if the event is anything other than a form of race, it is a form of torture. Seriously, Drift Attack, Frag Attack, and Time Attack can get so hard to where it just takes complete luck to be able to dominate the event. They aren't fun modes in any way, shape, or form. I've lost Frag Attacks because no enemies were spawning next me, and that god-awful Behemoth can't catch up to the cop cars. Don't even get me started on time attacks. People that put drift attacks in their cities online usually have very unpopular cities. Rubberbanding is also present, but it hasn't been as big an issue as the existance of these other modes.

I wouldn't buy it unless you can get it for $30 or less. It's really fun (and frustrating), but it's short and the lack of any online population hurts its replay value.

If people haven't played it already and want it dirt cheap, it's only £15 now on zavvi.com.
