Well, Blockbuster gave me lots of store credit so I picked up a few new games, including this. I didn’t like the first one, ignored the second, but this one has been getting lots of good feedback online. With good reason, it seems. The handling is massively improved and the framerate, though very inconsistent, is much, much better. The first game had sim leanings that I don’t think worked too well; this is an out and out arcade racer and really, really good.
