At first I didn't even plan on giving this game a passing glance but after going to GUComics and seeing that Woody endorsed it I decided to give it a try. I would say the game is a solid 8-8.5/10 Gameplay is fun and rewards you with new cars by progressing through the season and earning credits (you don't buy the cars it's get x amount of credits get a new car) graphics are nice, but Forza 3 it ain't (not even close) the driving controls are arcade style. The downside is that in order to compete in multiplayer you have to run through single player to unlock the better cars to play in multiplayer so you pretty much have to run through the game in order to be able to compete online. But even with the worst car it doesn't mean you'll be in last place. Using the worst car on my list (as I just bought the game at the time) I placed 5th out of 7. So in recap it's a fun game, graphics are good but not fantastic and you need to complete the single player in order to do good in multiplayer.

This is one of those games I am loath to play because of the incessant media blitz. My wife and I watched a couple shows the other night and they played the same 4 commercials in every break and the ad for this was one of them.
I got very sick of it very fast.
That and click it or ticket.

The game is fun, I've now learned that the computer cars will ONLY use their detonators to try and get you to wreck but not each other (unless they happen to be by you when they blow it). Also, the detonator races, in the later part of the season the detonator races (you vs things being blown up scored against predetermined times) are nearly impossible me and a friend raced the power plant detonator for about 3 hours trying to beat the score before we finally did, the earlier detonator races are easier. the very last Air Revenge race (you have to blow up a helicopter that's trying to blow you up) is hard to do, I got within 3 seconds of first but didn't make it. it IS a fun game though but you have to get first place in everything for the achievements and all of the cars.
