Not gonna lie Blur amazed me with it's top of the line multiplayer, and I image the single player must also be really fun thanks to how cool all the power ups are. But for me, I like action, and although Blur has plenty of it to win a purchase with me, Split Second can get absolutely insane. When I'm driving down a landing strip at an airport and a huge airplane comes crashing out of the sky for me to dodge with my amazing skills, thats when I'm a jolly guy. Split Second is gonna be my first purchase probably despite it not probably going to get good reviews. What's everyone else on this one?

Split/Second is a one trick pony unable to add any real excitement to the genre and the driving itself isn't that great. You're setting traps, lather, rinse, repeat

Blur is different kinds of gameplay that allow different matches all the time. Some people are offensive while others focus on building courses that others have to navigate while others just ram the other cars.

Split/Second isn't a bad game but Blur is a great game

How a game like Blur hasn't already been made is pretty surprising but now that it has....and its awesome. Game plays great. Split/Second's gameplay is too novice, you just hit a button to throw junk at the other cars? That gets old way too quick.

Most likely Split Second. I didn't really like Blur beta.

I played Bizarre's F1 games and enjoyed PGR2 (though not as impressed with PGR3) so I'm leaning towards Blur.

Yup-a-roo. Yeah I agree with everyone really. Blur is better than Split Second for sure, but SS just has a spot with me I guess. There is actually a bit of timing required to wreck more cars at once with each of your traps, which sometimes worked out pretty cool.

That what I felt about Split/Second, just a one-trick pony. I'll be picking up Blur.

Haven't played Split/Second but the Blur beta is bloody great..

All the races are different, one race you come last, the next ur moppin the floor with everyone else...

And the mode where you just fight and don't race is amazing fun...

I thought it'd be a little bit one-dimensional but I was proven completely wrong...

And plus it's a Bizarre Creation creation(?) and I like to support them - they're quality devs...

Blur for the amazing online play whit 20 people chaos.
I dont get the whole hype for split / second, when i played it felt standard ( blur did aswell but it was really awesome standard for some reason ).
While split second racing was just wack, no good sounds and way too much depends on the explosions.
