I am eagerly anticipating this game. A friend of mine told me about it earlier today and I didn't believe him. It's such a crazy concept for a game. I can't wait!(Seriously)

Latino gamers will probably gobble this thing up, but I simply can't get over how dumb this game sounds.

Goddammit! I had this EXACT SAME idea for a game about 2 years ago. Its in my notebook of "cool game concepts".

Well, I can't wait to play it.

Well I guess this answers the question of what if Parappa the Rapper and Gran Turismo 3 had a child what it would be like...

This blurrs the line between innovation and hitting rock bottom.

How about it? I thought the exact same thing about when I stole an issue of Low Rider for no good reason and was dissatisfied with the Crusin' USA 64 rev. ... I pictured a racing game like C'USA with events like those carhops at the intervals between racing between cities or something...

As of now count me as one of the interested people in this title, though.

I wish this game came with a custom "Switch Box" controller :)

I was thinking something along the same lines. We have officially run out ideas in the gaming industry.:bang:

And I'm still reeling from how stupid this concept is, then again who knows. This'll probably be the next big thing.

Now that would be cool! I can already picture the homemade controller hacks.

What the... :confused:

As long as they don't steal my idea of an evil car-themed light gun game I'm happy. :)

So much for keeping an open mind :rolleyes:

Oh, and I don't think this'll hit U.S. shores due to the "sensitive" nature of the content. Believe it or not, some people might feel offended by this game and racism is one topic I'm betting every company would like to avoid.

*opens up a whole new can of worms*

omfg that is great, i am soo getting this game.

I don't see how a new concept for a game means that "we are running out of ideas". If anything it would mean the opposite. I guess yet another Football game would signify a healthy amount of ideas moreso than a lowrider game....
