There was way too much hype around this game. First of all, the graphics are comparable to many Gamecube games. All the cars sound the same. And, the storyline is horrible. Also, savefiles fail frequently, requiring you to reset the game and start from the beginning! the only good thing I can think up is that the game does have an amazing selection of cars. IMPORTANT: if you are going to get this game, be sure to use it's PS Online capability!
