Great Buy! Better than the sequel, in my opinion.:
This is a must for PS3. The graphics are very rich and the music is awesome. Great driving game for 20 [..], and is more fun than the new expensive sequel.
rented, not bought:
I rented this game, and while there is great action and crashes, I found it quite difficult to win. Understand that I didn't use it alot, so I didn't know the tracks well, which will allow easier competition. One thing that is very cool is there are no skill settings, the game does it all for you. As you get better, the competition gets better, so even though I was winning, I could not dominate. Even tracks I won handily on early in the game became very difficult to win. I don't think the minimum skill... more info
Fun and addictive:
I've been playing it for a few hours and I'm hooked.
It is a non-realistic physics racing game, but that's the fun part. You get this "boosts" that last for a few seconds and propel you at 200mph. They're really fun.
The landscape is amazing, even though I'm using and old RCA tube in 480p setting. Still the game looks great. Way better than the xbox console I used to have.
I like the realistic crashes, in slo-mo. Awesome crap.
It's Okay!:
I will admit I am not a fan of racing type games, mainly due to getting motion sickness. This game is too bouncy for me, and I just did not find it that fun. I don't like trying to race in the dirt and mud. I don't care for all of the slow motion drama either. The game also takes too long to load!!
