Claimed minimum specs are as follows, but with these kinda specs, the game is gonna look like crap. I'd say at least like a 9800 Pro or 6600 would be a good idea.

It's definetly no Gran Turismo, I know that, but it's a hella lot better than HP2. Hell, you can actually pull a cookie / powerslide. I still find it fun. :?

overall very impressed with the demo...been waiting for this for a long time. however it needs some tweaking and optimising to make it perfect. there are some parts where the FPS drops heavily and this shouldnt happen. looks like a very promising titile.

Smooth as a baby's butt here. Get a less shitty PC / turn down the settings / get more RAM.

Ya my laptop sucks ass but i can run it at 1024 with the minimum basic settings so its not bad. Frankly I like it I just wish the steering wasn't as floaty. The dynamic enviroment is nice but it can make you fail. I have been only playing the viper part and I think I evaded the cops for about 9 min. Pffff.

I used gamespot and got it in about 20mins or so. Anyways, I think it looks really goood graphically, but I hate the steering in it for some reason. I find the steering from the NFSU series to be better than this for an arcade game. Maybe I just need to get used to it or something, but I've found it to be really annoying.

I've been playing it all day, and the steering is still retarded.

It's the 'heat' of your car. The higher the number, the more agressive the cops get. They are also going to use better cars. First cruisers later GTO's, SUV's, C6's etc.

It is only in the Black Edition. it isn't a career veheicle, only availlable for challenges ( it think) and quick races.

Nov 25 2005, 03:19 PM
Finally beat the game...=P
its alright i guess. THe game overall gave me lots of time to kill. However i found something that don't know if you all did. The motion blur effects fuks my eyes..or maybe i played too much hours of it non stop. Yea other than that good game. Just uninstalled it to save my eyes.
