Not Realistic, But is Fun to Play

The game is fun to play with many side games objectives to accomplish to accumulate points and to open up parts of the game which are locked. I was surprised that there are parts of the city that are blocked off like being able to go over the Golden Gate and Bay bridges. Although I played the demo, I expected to be able to just to a drive-by around the city. The story-line is a little silly, but it is fun to take on the task objectives like filming collisions, racing and running from the police. I think the the trailer from Gamespot looks better that the game, as it likely the pc version. The graphics are pretty good, but it doesn't really feel like you are driving around San Francisco. It is not like playing Tiger Woods Masters 2012, where playing at Pebble Beach looks realistic. Also, on MLB 2011 The Show, the ballparks really do feel like you are there. I wished that UBISOFT have developed a game more focused on driving around the city and not have a stupid story line about policemen chasing after a criminal. Also, it is fun at first to shift into other vehicles, but that getting boring after awhile. It is fun, and I glad that only rented it. I am looking foward to playing Need For Speed- The Run. That looks like that will be a great game.
