AA because it would be disingenuous of me to say A so it will meet hype. The game has had 9 years, an 8 is the least it could do.

Definitely a 7. It's a yet unproven IP from ex motorstorm devs. It's beautiful to look at but I'm not expecting much.

Yet I've seen them care enough to blast games for not being 9's or 10's.

Doesn't matter if it's Driveclub or some other game.

Looks good, needs some AA and the tracks don't look as good as the press releases. I do however feel still images probably won't do the game justice since you're not exactly meant to stop and admire the details.

No way it gets AAA. That would put it on the same level as some Xbox One exclusives. Reality is it is not in the realm plus PS4 has a AAA curse. Nuff said.

October 7? Wow, thought the release was much later.

Anyways, I think this game not being a full on sim will set it apart. Not all driving games need to strive for this.

7 is guaranteed. if TLOU can't even get a 9.0 here what makes DC worthy of even an 8.0

and 8.0 is basically the new 9.0 right now since even an 8.0 is hard to ahieve on Gamespot. and i don't mind it at all since i don't let game sites decide for me, but i do read reveiews to see what they think.

Anyways I will not be purchasing the game this year as i'm not a big fan of racers. it does look good though and Gamespot said the changes they made to the game in a year has made it alot more fun now.

Its on PSN+ this month so its worth a punt.
