A bit slow at first, but soon addictive, intense and thrilling.

The last racing game I played were Super Mario Kart and F-Zero, so I was a bit out of it. And the first few races of PGR3 were somewhat frustrating, especially on harder difficulty levels.

After several trophies and tournaments though, I've grown to really appreciate the depth and intensity of the game. Now that I know what I'm doing, every brake and turn is significant, challenging and satisfying (when I get it right). It really does feel like you're going 180 MPH through narrow streets.

I also like how every car has its own quirks, so that you have to spend a while getting used to it. And you grow to love your cars.

There's a ton of cars and a ton of tracks, plus a very nice quick match feature for online play. The way it compares you to other players via Xbox Live is also fun.

Only a few problems: Only 2-player split-screen play, and no option for multiple people on one system playing online.

Sound: Tracks are alright, the engine sound is annoying though.
