    It's enough to make a fellow pine for the innocent days of yore, when Activision's Blur may have been a vehicle for Facebook nags, but at least it had the courtesy to include an actual game.

    I'm not sure if this is mention anywhere but in europe, you need to enter a code to play online. If someone has already entered that code they you can not.

And online cant make up for a nice looking lame game.… Full Review »
