That's promising. I want something close to realistic to try out, so I think I'll give this one a shot.

If you wait till tomorrow you can try the demo, if you feel brave go for it! Like I said, most of the reviews you see are either "it's not GT5!" or "it's too hard." Most of the FC forums guys though are infatuated with it.

I hear you can't judge the game by the first series you're forced to do (Mini Coopers) as they're very slow and stable. Once you get to WTCC cars though it supposedly takes off.

Sad that I waited for this game to come out to get GTR2, which I picked up last night. I'll probably end up getting this as well.

Once I saw it was $40 I jumped on it. Quick review, its a $40 game. it is a bare bones racer. I am up to the E class and it is starting to get better. The first couple of classes were alright, the D class cars all pushed like dump trucks. It's not bad. I am hoping the last couple series really pick up and then I'll give online a shot.

Oh yeah, the AI is absolutely retarded.

They are horribly late on getting the demo up. It was "supposed" to be up on Friday, it still wasn't up when I checked before work this morning.

As much as I think this game would be alot of fun, their release has been horrible. Delayed the game several months (normal), not getting the demo up, etc.
