Anyone played it yet? My roommate bought it, as he buys every game that comes out, and I sat down and played it a little last night. It seems to be pretty cool, I like the whole idea of a massive multiplayer racing game. Plus its $40 new. :cool: I might have to pick it up myself so we can start a street racing gang. I kid. :p

    $40 you say. I might buy it then. I played the demo and it was sufficiently rad.

    Yeah, it seems to be a pretty good game. I still have yet to play it more but it seems like the handling and physics improved even more from the second demo they released and there is a rediculous amount of things to do in the game.

    The game is well worth the $40 I would be willing to pay $60 without hesitation.

    Luckily my roommate picks up every newly released game. :D

    I think it is a good to great game. there is enough to do during single player to keep you interested, and it is insane driving down the streets of honalulu and seeing a fellow xbox 360 player drive by.

    Definately worth the 40!!

    Yup, exactly. It's great how they really give you the impression that you are cookin down the streets of Hawaii.

    I'll look into this game further as I want a racing game to add to my collection of 2 360 games.

    Anyone still playing this game? I would like to meet up online and do some of the multiplayer challenges. And if I were to get some achievements in the process, well, I would be fine with that too.

    I would like it except for the fact that I can't get used to using the triggers for accelerating and braking..and it cant be changed in the options

    I am still used to the PS2 racing games where you use the right analog stick for accelerating and braking...kinda like using a remote control car..

    I hope other racing games allow me to use my old configuration...
