http://www.slicedgaming.com/reviews/review1163.htmlIt's like Mario Kart, but with cars, on 360/PS3. If you're looking for an arcade racer, you really should give it a shot. The single player is okay by itself, but once you start levelling up online it's awesome.

That's what I tell every customer. Mario Kart with real cars. Have you checked out Split Second? I prefer Split Second. Less Mario Kart, more Death Race.

I was just playing the demo for a couple of hours, it's great fun! Usually I couldn't care less about racers, but throw in some active power-up usage and I'm there.  I usually suck at racing games, but I managed to come in first a few times against 14 other people online. Sweet! I liked the Split/Second demo, but this is way better.

Damn, why does everyone seem to have bought it for 360?  I'm the only one I know with the PS3 version...

Yeah, as if.  I finally have one person on my friends list who has it. On the note of PSN vs XBL though, I haven't been able to connect to Live for months. I've tried just about everything, but I just can't seem to sign in.

I've tried port forwarding, but it didn't help.

Paying for P2P isn't better than getting P2P and sometimes (mostly with 1st/2nd party games) dedicated servers for free.

Paying for maintenance is better than not paying for no maintenance. It's how a society functions.

I've used both Live and PSN and can't really tell the difference. Free > not free. From my perspective, Sony are offering a service which is easily on par with Live, for free. Win. I actually like the online setup on the PS3 better too, the friends list is so much easier to use without all the bulky avatar crap and huge icons. The PS store is also really easy to access from the same menu.
