Played the demo at gamescom – the feeling was that it was slick and polished but…

a. I didn’t have a bloody clue what was going on most of the time, and
b. It was completely forgettable in terms of level design

Disappointing, but hopefully the final game will deliver.

Only Uncharted 2? How can you have completely forgotten about Assassin’s Creed 2 and Modern Warfare 2?

The game does look very meh. They’ve tried to create a game that will appeal to none-racing game fans, but in doing so they’re making a game that racing fans probably won’t like. And it’ll be still too much of a racing game for those who aren’t into the genre.

Robo_1: Left 4 Dead 2 and ODST would like to have a word with you.

as for Blur, I played it, lots. I think it’s fantastic.

I agree the general feeling surrounding the title was one of meh, but I thought it looked fun.

I suppose they’re looking at why that meh feeling is there, and they’re probably going to come back with everything turned up to 11. A lot more Split Second style wow moments will probably be built into the tracks.

Still though, 2009. If it wasn’t for Uncharted 2 it would probably rank as one of the worst Q4′s on record.

NOBODY CARES. It’s all about Split/Second, anyway.

I don’t know what I’d do if I were at Bizarre.

No one is interested, and somehow they’ve come up with the least interesting racing concept ever, mainly becuase it’s a new IP, that is based on VERY old concepts.

Just wish that maybe they’d done something radically different. Something I could be interested in.

Oh dear. This doesn’t bode well.

Perhaps they finally realised that nobody gave a shit about it? Other than Robo_1.

The problem they’ve now got is it’s been pushed out into the same quarter as Split second, which is it’s most obvious competition…

This has looked terrible in all the vids / previews I’ve seen. Hopefully this will give them time to sort it out.
