Seriously though, we got the shaft just by getting the PC version anyways, frame drops, no AA, stuttering while streaming data, initially missing effects that had to be patched in, poor sound balance, it all smells of outsourced port. :(

@MustangMatt: Pretty sure Megaman will appear... except that it's probably going to be Megaman Volnutt, they can rip the character straight from Tatsunoko VS Capcom like they've been doing with others like Zero, Viewtiful Joe, Ryu, etc.

@JonnyTanna: I'll be really sad if they don't put Captain Commando and Strider Hiryu in there. :(

@Louis Tovar: They're probably saving that for Bejeweled 4.

@DrakeDatsun: Standard cars do not have undersides. Just a black texture.

@mAAddog: Thaaats... not really a hologram. It's just a projection on a transparent screen.

@Good news, everyone!:

@stuartb.nicholson: The XBLA version is not available in Mexico for some strange reason. Fortunately (and strangely) the PSN version got released last tuesday and I had exactly $10 left so I snagged it.

@ckrueger: I'm terrible online, I played mostly career mode like I said, with all driving assists off, the AI on medium, and can't stop myself from using the rewind feature when I mess up, to top it off, the clutch on Microsoft's wheel is just the A button. But when I manage to win a clean race without having to use…

@ckrueger: I don't know if the "active steering" stuff is real or not, I saw this video but I just don't know what to make of it or even understand what's going on. (It says look at the wheel on screen but I don't see anything strange.)

@ckrueger: Doesn't Forza 3 have that "active steering" thing going on even when all assists are turned off?

@ihaveabu: There's no way a game can be 1080p native with that level of detail and framerate on the current generation of consoles:

@Baboonski: I just chose what looked prettier to me, nothing else.

@TheTonyShow: The game is not even out yet, but I completely agree, they should put a professional race driver try out the two games and ask him which one is the most accurate.

Without looking at the names:

@ACRaven: Need For Speed: Black? What's that game?

@Kraps: The same way it works for your favorite movies: You like it so much you watch it again and again.

@Batman: Unreal Tournament 3 is the last bastion, but no one plays.

@jesperbc: The thing is, many Wii games and even PS2 games have good enough texture detail and their original hardware is actually holding them back.

I feel exactly the same, Mike. Except that I manage to resist buying it. But this game is tempting me A LOT, especially after Forza 3, which was the game that finally made me like racing simulators (maybe because it was the first time I played a Forza game with a steering wheel instead of a controller), so I'm…
