This is easily the biggest demo (hype wise) so I'm not even going believe I can download it within an hour or two.
Oh and if you don't download/like the demo, I will never shut up about Halo or the BETA EVER. You got that, toots?  |

The release time is 2am PDT, which I think is around 5am EST and 10am GMT |

i played the demo and im impressed, its really good, and this is coming from a guy who doesnt like racing games, i think this game may have turned me!
i suck sooooo bad at the game lol, first corner i took i just spun out and came 8th, after i got the hang of cornering a little better i was coming 2nd for the majority of the race and some asshole came up behind me and totally rammed me off the road lol, i spend the next 30 secs spinning in circles trying to get back on the track and came 8th again lol

Whilst the jaggies are pretty bad the physics are aaaaaaaammmmmmmmmmaaaaaaaazzzzzzzzzzziiiiiiiinnnnn nnnnnngggggggg!!!!
Seriously, they are the best I've ever seen on a console racer - they aren't far off PC racer stuff.
Good times ahead! |

Posts: 182 | Yeah, the handling is really really nice.
Very impressed. Have to say though, my expectations for the graphics were a little too high. Not bad at all, looks great in fact, but the backgrounds just don't seem to pop as much as I thought they would.
Still, going to be an incredible racer.
So much fun. |
