It's another online store where you can pre-order games. But I've only heard of it once. But thanks anyway.

Aah

http://www.gamestop.com/Catalog/Prod...oduct_id=70980

Even has a t-shirt, I want one too

EastCoasthandle · May 30, 2008, 06:02 AM

Yeah I noticed that, they use to have an option where you could buy from them and download it today. Now it's completely gone.

You should have done that. I guess too many folks from the US did it & overloaded their servers. I was apart of the server destruction too

The weird thing is that they are going to send me the copy of the game with the T-shirt but I don't care

The game is beautiful & I ran it completely maxed out @ 1920x1200. The physics realism of the cars are out of this world. You can keep a straight line with the car but if you don't brake at exactly when that annoying orange-to-red light in the map start flashing you'll be headed for spin city. I won't give too much away but the demolition derby is a joke. All you have to do is stay toward the rear & let the other cars destroy each other - no matter what difficulty you put it on

Triprift · May 31, 2008, 12:19 PM

Damn u no fair i gotta wait a few weeks till its out here :/

xubidoo · May 31, 2008, 11:27 PM

ive been playing most of the weekend so far,im addicted tbh.

best racing game codies have made in a long time imo.
great gfx and runs smooth as silk with everything maxed out,even multiplayer is great fun.

Did you actually buy from CM and downloaded the game??

3xploit · May 31, 2008, 11:49 PM

Damn this is the best racing game I have ever played.

All I need is a G25

lemonadesoda · Jun 1, 2008, 01:17 AM

For anyone who wants to try the demo: http://www.techpowerup.com/downloads/1064/.html

technicks · Jun 1, 2008, 09:18 AM

Why can't i configure my Logitech joypad with this game?
I want to play and this sucks. I could not get it work with the demo either.

mikek75 · Jun 1, 2008, 09:58 AM

Thats because its a "Games For Windows" title, and M$ is really pushing the 360 controller IMHO. I've got one and the demo plays great with it, the analog triggers are brilliant for throttle and brakes. Doesn't help you with your logitech pad though, sorry to hear that.

Just leaving to go and pick this game up!

i have a logitech rumblepad 2 cordless and it works just fine in the demo + the full game.

make sure u pick custom tab at the bottom and then i think u have to hit crtl to pick buttons ,then hit enter on each line to actually change the button used.
it is a little fiddly but it does work ok.
