Not impressed so far, every time you move across the menu takes ages to load, just tried to access the lobby and it freezes. Not the best start. Also as anyone done go kart racing online if so how do you get to do it?

Go to your lounge and set up karting in the settings. Me and fizzle had a go earlier was good fun.

Yeh it's got very slow all of a sudden.

I was unimpressed initially, then after 3 hours of playing I quite like it. I will certainly be giving it some hefty time.

As a racing sim I still prefer GTR on the PC, it somehow feels more realistic on the track to me.

 

Oh - and it's only £18.99 if you buy it at Currys when you spend £50 on something else....or do like I did and accost someone buying a Garmin and beg for their vouchers. ;)

Does anyone else have a problem with loading times? It seams to take an age when returning back to the home screen.

I installed the 8GB to the hard drive so I can't begin to imagine how long it would take if I had only done the quick install!

 

Other than that I like it. I think people have expected too much from this game due to the continuous delays but if you look at it as just another £40 PS3 game it's miles ahead of the rest!

Yeah. I'm convinced the game is still using the network even when playing offline. It slowed right down this evening but at around 11pm it was much faster and right now its loading screens within a few seconds. The online game was just a no go this evening but have just a a few goes with suprafog with no problems what so ever.

 

Did the Lupo cup challenge on the Nurburgring earlier, bloody awesome!!! Managed to bang in a 9:07 on my first go. This games really starting to come good now some of the tedious challenges are out of the way.

Yeah, the home screen load is terrible sometimes. I found tapping the controller triggers made it go through (I sat there for 10 minutes once).

 

Just managed to peel myself away from it.

 

Here's a pic of me bullying my way to the front in my first car.

Here's me admiring my new purchase in some swanky Japanese town/village setting.

And here's me mis-treating it on the most awesomest track I've found so far, The Cape Ring Periphery

Need to find out when the other cars will be available... i want a supra, then buy an R34 in baside blue so i can spray the supra that colour ;)

 

The game so far is great fun however

It must be hidden in there somewhere already. It's been in a couple of the challenges I've done

What do you mean?

 

It's just not as well integrated. Yesterday when we were fighting to get it working, on the 360 we could have been chatting over the headset irrespective of whether we are in the same game or not. You can also easily jump into any persons game from the 360's frontend, without even starting the game, the need to communicate via text, PM or phonecall in order to get people together is a lot more conveluted.

 

Hey ho, I'm sure they'll improve it.

 

One other thing, I've stoved the car into walls pretty badly yet not noticed any decent damage (in premium cars). How hard do you have to crash to get the thing to right itself off?
