   if any of you thought that this review was harsh, this was why, the game offered nothing cool or exciting I thought, everything was subpar and it was 10 dollars. thats all 3 strikes. There is just so much better things that could be bought online that would be so much better for you.

   Yah I agree, there are other items that are worth our MP points. But I can definitely see this game being appealing to the kids for sure.

   I don’t agree with your review, but that’s only my opinion :-).
   Too bad your asking people NOT to try this game when it’s the whole purpose of the trial version.
   Reviews are great, trying the game adds to the decision process.
   Hopefully the game found its community in a few days, something we’re all proud of here at Load Inc.

   No harm done, really.
   I’ll keep on listening to you (and others) and I’ll make sure to keep you informed of future releases.
   Cheers,
   Denis.

   DenisDenis,

   Thanks for coming here to get your thought, I think that its alway cool when the developers are actually listening to the community.

   Now I have a couple things, first on our last show we did, 44.5 I actually did tell our listeners to go ahead and listen to our reviews BUT don’t act alone on that because thats just one persons opinion instead they should also read elsewhere or still try it out themselves to form there own belief on the game. As for your community, to me it looks like there is a decent community backing behind the game from the looks of things on the xbox.com forums.

   So let me break down my review a little bit, and I might just do another video on this to further explain things. First, I was really looking forward to this game when I first heard about it, it looked like a lot of fun. But once I played the game my whole opinion on it changed quite a bit for a few reasons.

   Graphics, not so great, for the most part I can over look them because it is an Xbox Live Arcade game but not a single time was I like, “wow” and it was not even close.

   Sound, some of the sound effects got real annoying real quick. A good example is the countdown sound that happens right before the race or challenge is going to start. That was annoying the first time I heard it and its still annoying to me. Add that with the sound your car consistently makes and background music that isn’t very exciting and you get a poorly sounding gaming overall.

   Controls, simple and they worked, nothing to say here.

   Overall, I felt so disappointed with this title, every time I was able to play a new challenge I was excited at first, like on the foseball table or the pool table, I was thinking that this will be a lot of fun, but it wasn’t. The thing that mattered most, driving the little car around, just was not fun and thats why I did my review the way I did. I was not trying to be harsh but I just spent few hours playing a game that I was not enjoying.

   Anyways I do look forward to future titles and the challenge packs, hopefully they will bring something out of this game.

   Steve
