I think it's an amazing mechanic and taking a huge risk like that is the only way they would ever get people interested in this piece of shit series.
Dude is in a coma and the whole thing is probably a dream, but being able to take over other cars to help your goals is pretty out there. I have heard some good things, anyone pick this up yet?
I finally popped this game in and put some time in. It's pretty awesome. Closest cousin is Midnight Club: Los Angeles, which was awesome but brutally hard and not accessible at all. This is, by contrast (and perhaps unexpectedly, given the series), not so.
The shift mechanic works - the developers went above and beyond by writing a lot of funny dialogue for the different people when you pop in their cars.
The story is also a lot of fun. Like the shift mechanic, it works. I'm glad they went out there with this, would anyone have cared otherwise? The driving is pretty similar to the original from what I vaguely remember, kind of heavy but with a good drift mechanic. And 60fps!
The story does not work. But you're right, the game is fun so who cares.
Went ahead and picked up a copy.
Can't go wrong for $20.
I was waiting for a price drop, then I forgot this existed. Definitely sounds like it's worth $20.
for 20 its awesome.
This is $7.49 on Steam today. I am incredibly tempted, despite the fact I was supposed to stop buying things this month like four games ago.
Its level of awesomeness only goes up the lower the price is.
ok. It was worth $7.50 to try out the "Remotely install my games now" feature of the Steam iPhone app.~ Valve ~
I hate you for pointing this out. I'm trying to spend more time with the games I already own instead of being reminded of yet more stuff I skipped over but wanted.
