To be honest i play fps mostly but occasional like a good blast behind the wheel, that's why i've got nfs most wanted, grid, and dirt 2. Bought nfs carbon for son and original underground i'm not impressed but he's 12 so right up his street. Ign gave shift 2 an 8.5 and custom pc gave it a thumbs up but if it is anything like the first shift demo that i tried i couldn't keep the dam car even driving straight i'll steer clear of it even if it's only £15.00 !! Put that towards dirt 3 when it gets reduced in a few weeks/month or so. Just like to be able to pick up controller and drive without messing with to many settings. Online's probably already ruined by hacks or idiots like grid was anyway.
