If the game does turn out pretty good i probably will get it... mostly cause i love racing games, and no games have such a feeling of speed as the NFS ones.

I'd get the 360 version though, but i may just hold on a while and see if anyone comes out with a hack :).

I've tested Carbon today: I'm a little bit dissappointed. Especially the drift challenge is very bad. Just like slotcars. I won't buy it and wait for Test Drive Unlimited.:(

Yeah, great car. Elise, Exige or Esprit? I like Exige and Turbo Esprit most.


Ideally the Exige, or a mid 90's Epsrit (but theyre rather expensive!). You can pick up a 1990 Elan for about 5k though :D

After seeing a crash on the motorway a few months back, im a bit put off the Lotus idea to be honest, im pretty sure the fibreglass body would shatter into tiny little pieces and all that would be left of me is a nasty red stain on the dashboard :).

Im probably going to check out the 360 version, at least im guaranteed decent 16:9 support then.
