Wow this game is freaking Huuuuuugee and the graphics are sweet!

i want to take a few screenshots but the hud is in the way, i can hide the gps and compass, but how to hide the map and speedo at the bottom?

Thanks! :cool:

Yep bought it for only £18 back in June on release. Great game, gfx & world size are very impressive for the amount of hardware it needs and under 4GB HD space as well. I got 100% on it after about 1 month solid playthrough.

Very underated game, its only an arcade racer with unrealistic physics but a lot of game for the money and similar gameplay is no worse than any other modern game nowadays. One of the best arcade racers ever made on any platform and PC version is the best technically.

Highly recommended.

I played the demo and wasn't that keen on it, it seemed a bit boring.

+1, I am staying away from this boring game.

go and play micro machines then, maybe your pc cant handle this game.

how can you get bored from this? :confused:

I also played the demo and didn't think it was anything special.

toon_mad · 4 Sep 2009 at 17:41

demos can often misrepresent final product of a game, ive driven 740 odd miles, mostly on dirt bike and have never been to the same place twice (apart from the main camps and doing some of the missions again on harder).

theres so much you can do on this, as AWPC said, its too underrated

Major boring.

yay, I've got 700 miles of open terrain with virtually nothing to do in the whole lot of it. Hoorah.

toon_mad · 4 Sep 2009 at 17:47

its more like 5,500 square miles, and big jumps off mountains and things, maybe your school homework is less boring i wonder :confused:

britboy4321 · 4 Sep 2009 at 17:50

Indeed, when I used to have school homework it was.

If they had any sense they'd have at least done an auto-mission creating algorithm to bang a few (thousand) missions in there.

I get to drive home from work every day without anything happening. I don't need to sit at my PC to do it!

I played about 6hrs of it last weekend and then basically thought "what's the point?". I was just going through the motions and not particularly enjoying the racing, the chases were kinda fun though.

I didn't like the game much either ... it was fun at first then I just ended up driving around for nothing.

Wasn't impressed. Obviously neither were the gaming public as it seems to be at £9.99 on several online stores already.

Had it preordered due to all the selling points.

Really tried to like it but couldn't. Lots of terrain yes, but its just repeats of the same trees and stuff, also to the fact that you can go over almost all areas at full throttle. Never felt much of a difference between the terrains.

It had the potential of being Motorstorm in a grand scale - that why I initially bought it lol.

toon_mad · 5 Sep 2009 at 09:32

bah, what can i say i like games with a lot of racing involved, also never played motor storm so cannot compare.

i got this new for £9 so cant complain :cool:

timaloy · 5 Sep 2009 at 22:35

yeah i just got this ,was surprised at the size of the map and transport selections,very good
