Seemingly the underdog, blur turns out to be awesome!
The career is awesome. Its lenghty and challenging. Fan challenges are an added bonus cum challenge which make the gameplay more immersive. That said, its also pretty hard. The opponents will be fiercely competetive right from the start and you will not be able to win the 'Lights' very easily. Some may find it frustrating.
The menu design is good and conveys the mood of the racing aptly. The sound is also great. The sounds of engines and power ups have both been done nicely.
The car selection is good too. I would have been happier if they were customisalbe.Visually, its pleasing. The visual effects of the power ups is rather good; so are the collision effects. The graphics are a bit cartoon-y but gel well with the feel of the game.
Blur is a stand out in its genre. Its fast, furious and fun.
