I race a fair bit online. I race the proper race games, mainly Simbin releases, all the time. I like my realism in my race games. This went out the window when I started playing TMU about 6 months ago. I dont care that this game is absolute **** There is no way a car can do corkscrews or wallrides, but it just seems to work in TMU. Its a great racer with some really great depth. The physics arent going to win any awards, but the diversity of the tracks and the whole "whoa" factor really makes up for it. The feeling of nailing that really hard track, that you just keep stuffing up, is really quite unique. It has great online features, with every race being ranked. It also, with the Forever expansion, puts Country vs Country, for that little extra spice. The user created tracks make this game what it is. The creativity of some of the authors is really quite amasing. Some of the user created tracks can be a little frustrating, but as a whole, the online community is top notch. It is easy to find people, or servers to race on, and the tracks are generally a lot of fun to play on. Overall, the TMU series, with the Forever Expansion, has some great ideas and its executes them well. The driving is not real, and i dosent try to be, it is just plain fun. Its is very addictive, and when you do nail that corner and have an "Angel" run, nothing else in this genre comes close.
