Have you played the game?
The damage console ain't as good, But handling & sounds etc have really been thought of, I'd say it's pretty immersive, although I don't use the cockpit view myself, there's a lot of little things that have been done just to make you appreciate that they took time to think about these things.
It doesn't feel like NFS anymore, Which the fanboi's are going to scream about
Game length has also been sorted out.
I've been playign well over 12 hours now and Im @ level 21/50
It looks very very much like Pro Street, but gameplay wise its nothing like it. It's well worth £25 in my view! I think it's one of the best NFS i've played about the same level as Underground 2, so much better than any of the Carbon/Pro Street/ Undercover 'games'.
