Wow, some of those are awesome. I thought they were all really basic shapes..

I just wish the editor could have been made a lot smoother for the PC. Its far too clunky and difficult to use.

game crashs loads in the casino...

Do the roads seem to have few AI drivers to anyone else?

Certainly compared to the first game.

I generally found Hawaii to have a lot more traffic so many it's a design choice for Ibiza?!

Never played the first, but I crash enough as it is, so I dont want more AI drivers.

I want to be able to cruise around without going 'Oh ****, I'm about to hit that guy, *emergency turn* ... Oh great, now my cars collided into a tree!'

Is this better than gt5?

In terms of realism? No.

In terms of re-playability (from my point of view), yes. I can't stop playing it and I've yet to even set up a cruise or race with anyone but quite a lot of people seem to know me from my Test Drive Unlimited forum related posts anyway, I'm suprised I haven't been rammed to death by now

I've got a few more championships to go but there's still a stupid amount of things to do after those anyway and even when I've got everything done I'll still want to cruise around aimlessly.

I've not done any cruising yet as I'm still trying to earn some net cash

Did the Ibiza championship last night that last race is awesome!!! Get some good music on the go and push to your hearts content

I had a fair few crashes and wasn't really pushing myself to drive fast and still managed to knock 11minutes off or so. Also had some really close misses with traffic/trees that were just awesome, I had one when i slide of the road doing about 120mph and just managed to slide between a post and a tree that was only just wide enough for my Impreza, it was pure luck but felt pretty damn awesome

Which island does everyone prefer thus far? I'm loving Ibiza for its variety in little towns and such but I've just done (last night) a few races/cruising on Hawaii and found it much more impressive and far better vistas. I'm pretty impressed that Eden actually spent some time to make Hawaii a worth while destination again rather then just copying/pasting it from the last game.

Im on the Ibiza championship atm, going to play it now

I'll be doing the 74 mile Ibiza cup race tonight in my TTS, I'd like to get it to tuner level 3 first though as I don't fancy screwing up at the last turn! This game could do with a custom radio station, or perhaps an option to turn off the djs, as they grate a fair bit.

You can switch the radio station off.

i did it with 5minutes to spare...

i already had a few minutes to spare about 15minutes in and then i got bored i reckon if you could stay focused for the full race you could easy do it with 10-15minutes to spare

grudas · 17 Feb 2011 at 14:13

ye first time i've tried i had 11 spare.. basically its very easy just long and fun because it takes you through some awesome places..

you know the classic slot machine with the fruits, it seems you can only win money on that but its slow going

Ok, I tried the first Ibiza Cup race earlier.

I quit because I need to unlock level 3 tuning first lol.

My level 1 tuned Land Rover and Alfa Brera really wont cut it. My Lancia and Subaru would be fine though.
