Greetings Everyone,
This was the game I was looking forward to today (I am sure Jade Empire is a fine game but when I played the demo I was a little under-whelmed by it. Gorgeous game but ultimately kinda boring especially the combat). My bias: I loved the second Midnight Club, really disliked the Project Gothams and really thought Burnout 3 was last years Game Of The Year (I spent a week, week and a half with Halflife 2 and haven't touched it since but Burnout is still in heavy rotation). I guess it comes down to if you liked the second Midnight Club, you will like this one. I sense a distinct parallel between this game and KOTOR 2. If you liked the game play in either of the first editions of the game you will dig the second version. There is sooooo much more eye candy/distraction that you really have to concentrate on the race or you can crash just looking at the surroundings/traffic. Overall, I give it a thumbs up. This will more than tide me over until Forza gets here in a month (God willing!!!!). I anxiously await your thoughts and comments on the game.
