The PC version and the console version is the exact same, even down to having to select your language at the start every single time you play...

This is a series of screens showing the whole game in quick screens... i start in career mode which I'm not fond of at all, especially in the higher tiers when you have to do races you don't like, like drifting...

Then the part I do like, instant races, then a 4 player online race, and I won, lol...

The settings are on simulation with full damage...





































































My opinion... great action racer, more like an improved GRID.

Good things:
graphics
sounds
tracks
cars
handling on the track
instant races
car battles

Bad:
car handling
bad AI
too much presentation
over the top crashes
points for bad driving
career boring and confusing

Just my IMO.

I disagree: without helps, with a G25 wheel and manual clutch in pro mode... the handling and physics are AMAZING (especially with the immersive sounds and cockpit view! (and I use to play LFS, GTR2, RBR...). I don't know if you have played this with a pad, but with the G25, it's a real dream to drive especially when you fiddle with the tuning setup (to correct the sliding for exemple).

The AI seems to adapt to your own driving (which seems to be quite aggressive regarding your screens where we see the state of your cars at the end of a race wink )... Not playing like GRID or another arcade game is the key... take your time, be clean when you pass the AI... they do a lot of mistake and they are quite slow around corners.

SeceRom... and true, for the PC version I do use my gamepad, don't have a wheel... but on my Xbox 360 version where i have a wheel, and usually drive with more percision, I still get the AI sideswiping me in a long strait away, and overly spinning themselves and me out in a slight bump of a turn.

I don't think so... because you get points for staying on it, lol... will have to check.

Yes it is. You can turn it off in the options screen.

Can you expand on what you mean by "handling on the track" versus "car handling"?
