Hey guys , I ended up getting the this and I have to say it is better then the demo. I'm really enjoying it. The sense of speed is crazy fast on some of the super cars.
In NO way shape or form is this a Sim but it is some very good Arcade racing fun.
If any of you have it please let me know so we can try to beat each others times and even do some on-line racing.
The hot pursuit mode is really great. It is 3 vs 3 but even the racers can get kits on their cars that drop spike strips and more so it really has a sweet battle aspect to it. combine that with some crazy fast speeds and it could be a real blast with some friends.
Like I said post here if you picked it up or send me a friends request on XboxLive and let me know that your from Sim HQ.

Thanks for your time and consideration, Desode

Yeah I saw your poll, and I was planning on skipping it myself too thats why I never said anything. GT5 was rescheduled for next week so I couldn't really afford 3 games in a single month. However, I hit a scratch off lotto for $100 sunday and decided what the Heck, and picked it up. It is really good MAG, so let me know if down the road you pick it up.

M@V it is very fun, Hell it has pulled me away from COD for 2 days now !! I have a couple of friends that are making it even better. We are going at it like crazy with the autoLog. I need to play more of the online, but just keeping up with my #1 spot on the wall is a full time job.
At first I was REALLY Ticked that they didn't put in a Glodal leaderboard for the fastest track times. Now I'm understanding why..... It more about competition among your friends in a social network setting. That alone will keep you busy and as you use autolog to add more friends you find better times and challeges.
Its honestly a brilliant gaming idea, Dare I say this,,,,,,, I'm impressed..and thats not easy for me to admit.

PS I'm Looking forward to some online matches with all you guys.

Lots of deals next week to get this for $35 for 360, so I'm thinking about picking it up.
Anyone using the MS wireless wheel with it? How's the implementation?

It's a Full on Arcade racer, I wouldn't even try to play it with a wheel. I never even bothered to try mine with it. In my opinion its Great fun for what it is. That said , it also shouldn't be compared to even GT5 or Forza 3, their just completly different games.

I spent a few hours playing this last night. It's a very hit and miss experience for me. I really can't do the time trials where you can the penalties, maybe if you have an expensive wheel but with my right thumb, steering isn't all that precise and often I'm going into the rails then back into the opposite one. My time penalties are often >30 secs. Hopeless.
Is it easier to play these games with a modern steering wheel? Are the difficulties of driving games tweaked to favour owners of these wheels?
Other game modes it's not a problem and hardly ever hit the rails. Doing quite well with the traps etc. Still prefer Split Second for sheer racing thrills but I like the off-line social competition aspect offered in Need For Speed Hot Pursuit. The Autolog system has legs even though it's more or less the same kind of thing people have been doing with web sites, posting their best times and photos. Having it built into a game is more convenient and potentially cross-platform too.
The online pass is clearly a 'value added' system to extract post sales money from the second hand game market. But it helps pay for the servers I guess, given EAs record of closing game servers down despite their turnover I wouldn't count on it being around in two years time. Flex, I'm using these http://www.kontrolfreek.com/Game-Control...CFY64Kgod0DzPnwI got them to help my FPS SKILLS but it works great on racing games too,, way more range and control when steering with a controller.

I enjoyed it enough from the demo and needed a non-shooting game for the kids to play so I picked this up with some Christmas money. We were having fun the other day with it, just need more stick time.
