The only thing that's missing is rag doll physics for the driver and of course blood.

While this is probably in my top 5 for GOTY predictions, the lack of night racing sucks IMO. I find it to have more personality and excitement for some reason. My favorite racing options in games often involve a darkish atmosphere (heavy rain and/or night). That's a huge disappointment for me.

The game has some levels set in the evening, and/or with a heavy overcast. It can get fairly dark at times.

There is a damn good reason why night time racing is not in the game thought -- it would be nearly impossible to drive in it! The special cars in this game are obscenely fast, and not being able to see fifty feet in front of you would be bad.

I'll probably wait a day or two to see how this plays online before deciding to drop quality money on it, since I am not sure how well the game plays online. (that and my school will not let me put my XBox online until the 10th

).

Two words: Full moon. Everything would be in primarily blues but still bright enough to race with no problems. I love driving at night (everything always looks so pretty) but I can't really say I care enough to have it affect my view of the whole game.

Agreed. BTW, love your sig.
