Let's start with the best feature... the cockpit view! The game looks and feels great from this view. I think more games should have this view in the future. (cough, Forza 3, cough, pay attention, gasp...) The bumps in the road and the handling of the cars are top notch. Best "feel" to a console racer yet. I almost felt like I was in my own car at the track, minus the g forces. Now for the bad. Glitches and lack of polish. Online freezes with too many people, Single Player Replays freeze often. Any thing other than the cockpit view only looks a hair better than Forza 1, good, but not great. The lack of rumble in the grass? I noticed that too. You have to play with the sound settings to get it to sound right, but once you do, you will be rewarded. The A.I. always seems to "give up" right before the last turn on the last lap, but are very tough until then. All in all, a great game. I feel Atari and SimBin rushed this title out due to all the delays and changes in release dates and people were getting tired of waiting. I know I had it on reserve since October last year! This most likely is the reason for the lack of polish, but for $40 you can't go wrong! Pick this one up if you race in real life and want a game close to that feeling, or if you are only a Gamer that likes a challenge from a race title. Race Pro has it where it counts and that is game play!
