The good news is that it uninstalls pretty easily...
First off, installing on PC is a pain, thanks to having to register on-line first and then having to watch for 15 minutes while a 1GB patch is being downloaded at the break-neck speed of just over 300kbps.
When finally done, the next chapter adds even more to your blood pressure as someone didn't find it a necessity to adapt the controls for use with a computer. Which results in a lot of fiddling with re-setting the controls (for racing games I use "F" and "E" for acceleration/breaking and the spacebar for the handbrake -the latter just refuses to work.
The menu is a laugh and there's no real difference between "low" or "very high" settings, there's no roll-out menu to adapt the screen resolution so that you have to click, like, forever, to attain the 1920x1080 setting (system is sluggish too: clicking faster doesn't help).
Usually I avoid playing games which demand for an Internet connection and an on-line account (or I find ways around it) but I decided to jump through the hoops for "TDU2" to only have my feelings against such necessities confirmed. I want to install a game (and download/install needed patches myself), add the CD-Key and play.
The game itself looks very poor. Cars are okay, but behave like, well, cardboard boxes on wheels. Surroundings look like they were transferred from a mid-nineties game and the engines sound like electrical motors whizzing to a certain and sudden death.
A Lancia sounds like my kitchen robot and a Ford Mustang could be mistaken for a concrete mixer in need of a repair. The Ferraris somehow have my neighbor's model helicopter engine mounted.
To make a long story short, "TDU2" was a mistake. Game mechanics are poor, graphics are unworthy of the 21st century and the controls are atrocious, as is the "storyline" and the dialogue.
This game went straight from the bargain bin to the dustbin, amen.
Now, where's my "NFS: Most Wanted" copy...
