I’ve done a video of me doing two laps. I sort of hold it together on the second one. This is with the tuned car. I tried with the normal car and I could hardly stay on the track.

So that video ur going to show off to us is probably going to take a while to record then Pat?

The skills on show in this video are amazing. Nine more minutes to encode.

Do you think it will live up to the hype Pat? or alternativly live up to its 5 year development cycle.

Video’s up now. I can see what that German site meant about the grass and sand areas. There’s almost no detail in them at all.

I bet it sells well Hindle. I don’t know if it will be next years biggest seller or not. I kind of doubt it to be honest. I bet nintendo will still own most of that top ten list. But this game should, I would think, be on the list too. If I was a betting sort I would place my money on Reach however. But there are a lot of big name games that slipped from this year into early next, not to mention some big name games that were schedueled for next year anyways.FF comes to mind. Imo, unless the install user base grows in leaps and bounds(while ms/nintendos stalls), we won’t see a PS3 at the top of the year end sales charts for a while, regaurdless of how good the game is.
