    uhoh, the handling still looks a little suspect to me. hopefully a new demo can prove me wrong...

    I agree. The E3 demo felt nearly unplayable with fast cars. But maybe it's because I am so used to PGR3.

    By the way, I thought the XJ220 was only available as a right-handed car?

    Good god, it seems the 3DO – Need for Speed can still outshine this horror. It also seem’s to have “Peter Molyneux” syndrome, i.e. the idea of the product outperforms it’s realisation by quiet some margin. Shame, everything they are trying to do is quite laudable, and on paper sounds like it “should” be fun, but unless I am missing something quite radical, it simply isn’t any fun at all for me at the moment.

    Only thing I could suggest to give it a bit of a fun factor would be to have floating heads above the cars that are fed live from the new camera coming out for the Xbox360.

    I am sure an old Arcade motorbike game did something similar, can’t remember which one, but think a lot of games may soon use that particular kind of feature so if they were the first it maybe a bit of sparkle to help it shine.

    Apart from that the handling sucks, seems to be a really slow linear acceleration to the “virtual steering wheel”. Maybe the steering is only running at 10 FPS or something; bit like the graphics. Hopefully the demo was single thread rendering engine an the real thing will be multithread rendering engine. Only time will tell.

    BadBoyBonner, its amazing how fast you have come to your conclusion. It sounds like you have had a few hours playing the game, is this true or are you just another faggot hater?
