Bingham - I've had to temporarily cancel my order for this so I'm afraid I'll need to drop out of my group .

Well its no big deal at moment because no ones wants to join the groups so can keep you in if eventually your still getting the game.?

Sheer size if quite amazing when i get the game im burning it up to race track got to test it out.

Magazine reviewer a while back said the coast takes up to an hour to get across i suppose will see when we get the game certainly huge map. Also i suppose it depends on what your driving and if you stick to the speed limits etc.

Also get a paper map with the game.

Wonder if it's an exact replica of Oahu? If it is, I'm gonna go off to the North Shore to see where Lost is made!!

Its sattelite mapped roads i beleive maybe not exact right everywhere i know houses are not for legal reasons and buildings.

Here a map of real Island for you to compare.

Am I right in thinking that if you are going to get the free car, then you will basically be emailed a code which you redeem via marketplace?

Ye you should get an email.

I cant find any clothes places, just test driving at the mo, the Konseigerergegre thing is blisteringly fast though

Want my McLaren

You have to obtain a token to get clothes and you get the token by doing the hitchhiking missions.
