You don't really fall off then but instead crash and respawn on the side of the road.

Yep well you do fall off but you get respawned you could see the character falling off on wheelie.

Still no big deal i think ill be getting a bike so much more fun ive asked if guy can tell me prices of them i doubt it but worth a try.

Answer to how much bikes cost and if i could get one at beginning.

You can't buy any bikes from the off I'm afraid. You need to discover every car dealer before the bikes become available.

Prices range from $10k to $33k

I read that you will be able to use the window wipers on the car. Can anyone confirm this?

I heard the same but cannot figure how to do it in the current demo.

Are we gonna have a post with all club members xbox live tags or is that on the reviewer?

How do you get your xbox live details in your signature mate?

Is it updated every so often automatically?

Bend over everyone:

Total Video Games said:
Following last week's surprising news that one of our most anticipated next-generation titles, Test Drive Unlimited, would be released for the bargain price of $39.95 across North America, Atari today contacted us to address the situation in Europe.

Representing a true evolution for the brand and the genre as a whole thanks to the Massively Open Online Racing (MOOR) concept, Atari will be releasing Test Drive Unlimited for the normal price across Europe.

Stinks tbh, especially after the reasons given for the price drop:

"Innovation should be available to everyone, not a privilege for those can afford high price tags,"

Shikkaka · 26 Jul 2006 at 13:58

All,

Changed my name now. The reviewer has been updated to reflect these changes.

Many thanks to Thesnipergecko.

Not really bothered about the price, it will be £39.99 from most places anyway which I was prepared to pay in the first place.

The price stinks if you shop in the high streets though, £49.99 for a game is way OTT.

I dont mind paying £39.99 from online retailers though, but for Joe Public who dont shop online its unfair.

Places like Asda, Tesco and Morrisons will do it at £40 or even a few quid cheaper.

Its actually the stores that should know better like Game and HMV that charge rip-off prices.

Doug · 26 Jul 2006 at 14:19

Any word on whether it'll be region coded? £24 quid from PlayAsia would be even more of a bargain for this.

Discover every car dealer?

. By discovering I take it you just need to drive past/visit them rather than have to unlock them?

bingham67 · 26 Jul 2006 at 19:03

He went on to say discover every bike dealer on another question someone asked so its just finding it. Should be fun adds more to game got to discover stuff.

So keep your eyes peeled when we are in the convoy.
