Quote GS "frame rate can't keep up with the action". I wonder why!?...(dot dot dot)
Now I have never had a bone to pick with Game spot over one of there reviews, but this just sorta pissed me off alittle, when they said ""frame rate can't keep up with the action".
Now let us think about this, the games that have come out for the 360 this year, are basicly a taste of things to come, they are trying to see what the 360 can do, like "Dead Rising" - Massive amounts of AI on screen at once, "Kameo" - First adventuer game for the 360 (GFX are intence at no loss of FPS" ect.
But then some one comes along and says "frame rate can't keep up with the action". Ok I dont even know if this reviewer even played this game! I am doing a 3D Animation bachelors, so I sorta know what I am talking about when it comes down to GFX and 3D.
I dont know any game, that has this much partical effect! when you are going 210kph down a road with 4 cars crashing into each other, sparks flying, dammage controle, Sh1t flying every where, stuff blowing up, glass shattering of buildings ect. all with high Rez maps, and cars, with mass (I mean mass) Partical Effect, you tell me "its not gona lag!"......so lets re-cap, frame rate cant keep up? I wonder! Even so, the frame rate only get's sloppy some times and only for a fue sec.
+ the fact you can play 2 player with AI, same screen without losing any detail. I give this game 9 for gfx, because sega had the balls to put it out there and give it all. The soundtack is vary good for he fast paced play of the game, MP kicks ass so much when you have a friend over, and if you love burnout.........after playing this you will be like "what is burnout?". if you play MP the game has alot more replay value, dose seem to run short on it. Game play is about as good as a arcade style racer can be.
this is like burnout x100 with guns, if you love over the top fast action games, where sh1t just explodes for no reason, cars flying over each other in a rush race, this game is for you, I got it on sale for 50$AU. And it was so worth it.
