Photo Editor When you think of the photo editor you say, well meh. That is, if capturing carnage isn't your thing
Yes, I AM reviewing the photo editor. And no, I AM NOT going into intricate detail about what sort of crashes and on-purpose boost explosions I have done in WRECKREATION mode just to get a good shot of the driver flailing his arms about or a midair beauty shot of the ogle-able scenery behind my ugly, crumpled monster truck.
I'm just gonna give you a link to what the Photo editor is all about.

Now isn't that the kinda thing you wanna show people?
Now, details.
You're racing through a lush jungle paradise in a racing truck. A biker swerves out of a hidden route, into your path. You smash into the biker, launching him into the air...*PAUSE* Lets see here, photo editor.
Rotate, around in front of the flying biker. Zoom out.
Perfect. SNAP! Share to PSN and continue the race.
First of all, who has the split-second reaction time to pause at that very moment? That's why I failed at getting a good shot of the driver flailing his arms about or a good midair beauty shot of the ogle-able scenery behind my ugly, crumpled monster truck!
Second, You are only allowed to share your pictures on PSN, not save to HDD.
Now, I'm not saying the photo editor is bad, coz' it isn't.
The detail in the pictures is amazing, and I mean amazing. And I like the ability to take an HD photo at any moment of the race.
P.S. The rating is for the photo editor, not the entire game.
P.P.S. I don't remember if it actually is called the photo editor.
