  1. Despite its unrealistic physics, repetitive racing, and insufficient options, the game can, at times, be surprisingly enjoyable.
  2. 60
    If anything, fans of driving games who aren't looking for the most hard-core street racing experience will enjoy the somewhat simplified gameplay.
  3. It took me less than two days to complete the single-player campaign and unlock all of the vehicles. After that, the game pretty much becomes a drag, since there will be no further challenges for the player and given that the game's graphics are not all that impressive either, there's nothing left to draw you back into that "fast and furious" racing atmosphere.

  1. Driving physics don't exist. Neither does damage. The game is from a technical perspective- hugely flawed. For some reason I still liked it though. I was curious as to what would happen next; where the story would lead to. You go from San Fransisco to Tokyo to London to Monte Carlo. What's dissapointing is that you only get to play as a cop in skirmish mode not in the main story. Overall, it's definitely not a good game but one that I enjoyed. Expand
