Those old Movies

User Rating: 8.2 | Import Tuner Challenge X360
I don't know if anyone has ever seen those old movies about the time trials around the city highways but this has that exact feel and I love it.

Given there is no damage model or 200+ vehicles. There is enough in here to make for a long and enjoyable racing experience.

The tuning is great even though it give you very little low level control on parts. The tuning settings are very nice and have a subtle feel to them. Making the game about driving rather then being fast. Many times I was able to take out a much faster opponent with proper drift and cornering. Also a great plus is that if you are passed in an SP battle that does not automatically mean race over. It is possible to overtake and still win. That is probably the part of the game that keeps me playing. I am not instantly failed for tapping another car or wall.

All in all this game is a lot of fun to play. Little shallow on meat but learning about the elusice king speed is a tasty diversion from driving.
