In my opinion it' s pretty rubbish the car controls ain' t much different it' s still a lot of work to reposition yourself and the bike aint better. And I hate the character design. The only plus for me is the area is stunning...

The only plus to this is crashing into other cars, otherwise it' s exactly the same as
the earlier demo with a slightly nicer frame rate.

Car control is still a bit iffy and sometimes it' s difficult to re-align yourself.. But
as Mass touched on in a different thread regarding online play, it may be it' s only
saving grace as I can imagine the whole community aspect of it, and everyone
pulling up for a race through a huge city...

I havent tried the new demo yet but I do agree its certainly not on par with other games out there, however it is moving in the right direction compared to other recent Test Drive games. The $40 pricetag plus the discount I can get is making me debate this one for a little longer. It' ll depend on whats coming out around the time of its release. I dont have any arcade racers yet and Flatout 3 is probably a good ways off.
