PSN version unlocks in 5 hours, PS+ gets the $10 off. Actually pretty excited, most of the later previews says it feels like a Codemaster game. I loved the Grid and Dirt series.

@misterpmedia: We are basically guaranteed a meltdown on one side or another regardless of Driveclub's score. It'll be a nice time for some quick laughs.

I can't wait. Either way, I'm either drinking delicious tears or eating succulent crow. My body is ready.

Starting to think this poll was heavily trolled in slant of the A.
Still disappointed the majority of cows didn't hype AAA, would have been nice to have held someone's hand as we all go up in flames.

The live gameplay video here on GS yesterday certainly didn't look like the graphical powerhouse all the screenshots cows have been posting before. It will be interesting to see more on the final product.

Wow it seems everyone is under-hyping this game so it doesn't "flop". This way even if it scores lower than FH2 people can say flop vs hype met. Im looking forward to this game, but I cant imagine it will be received as well as FH2 has been. Not just at gamespot but across the board. Im a huge racing fan and it will be interesting to see which of these titles I gravitate more towards after a week or two with both of them.

i think in 1-2 hours time, so far from impressions the gameplay seems to be really strong but lack of content will bring score down

@ghostwarrior786:

Yeah. I'm hyping 7. The game does look great and i have heard that it plays like PGR and Grid, which is good news, but it doesn't seem to bring anything hundreds of other racing games hadn't shown before.

It's free and my library lacks a racing game, so i'll obviously like it :)

@ghostwarrior786: I am in Canada. The PS+ version simply isn't there. They have a big advertisement for the version and it won't let me download it.

Like the other user it seems to think that I am not a ps+ member.

Well I did say earlier in this thread that the only reason I voted A was because there was no option to vote below.

Who couldn't see this coming? Development hell, delayed multiple times, missing content, inconsistent graphics, floating cars. I have said this multiple times already.
