However, one of the few stumbling blocks is the lack of a proper driving tutorial, but since you basically have to steer, brake and accelerate, arguably the Training area is sufficient for you to get to grips with your car.
Quick Race is self-explanatory (just flick through the cars in real-time in the brilliantly laid out garage menu). We particularly liked how you could start anywhere on the grid without having to slog through two practice laps and qualifying. Similarly, you can skip straight to the main race in Championship Mode but you'll automatically start at the back of the grid. There's some sort of double-clutch thing going on during take off; Could we get a boost off the line? Could we hell! It makes Mario Kart look simple."
Superstars V8 Racing is a downloadable title, and therefore not as fleshed out as a retail release. The content is fun and very playable, but may not be worth the price of admission with much bigger racing titles already on the market.
O-Games is handing players out a little gift in time for the holidays- a price slash on the downloadable racing game Superstars V8 Racing!
I might just get it, now that its in the $10 price range. I think most games that come out as a d/l game should be $10 at most $15.
i played the l=demo seemed aight what you say good line/offline play is there a career mode?
The game is alright but it's strange at the same time. I bought it, wanted to at full price but held off for GT5, and now that I did I wish I kind of didn't. I say this because I don't think I'm going to be investing much of my time into it.
Some aspects look better than GT5's, if you can believe that. But the game falls lifelessly flat. And bad. It just doesn't pop or have much going for it. It's a very barebones experiences and for 10 bucks can you expect anything less or else?
The pavement looks more realistic than GT5's, but that doesn't warrant the buy. The damage is better than GT5's, but that doesn't warrant the buy. The controls are standard, but that doesn't warrant a buy.
The whole game feels unfinished to me and rushed. Even the car selection is sloppy. The whole game screams what it doesn't have or offer back in your face.

Oh my god Sam and Max....so excited. It may be heresey, but I'm more excited for that than I am DC Universe!
I'm way more excited for DCOU though. It's cool to finally see a real (non-Japanese only, as they have some already) MMORPG. I do hope that they give us a digital download option for the game so that I can just upgrade my beta install and skip heading to the store. I haven't bought a physical copy of an MMO in years.
I'm not lazy, but this is one of those situations where I like DD. It's not healthy to play MMOs in large chunks, so I'd like to play a bit, then swap to a disc game or something else. That said, I'll probably play an hour or so of DC a day. So changing discs does get tedious after a while.
Grr I likely cannot download either, my HDD is too stuffed!!! Need to upgrade my 320 GB to a 750 GB...Also early PS Store update FTW!
intaling DC universe right now .... never reslly played a MMO lets see what comes out of these .. from the video i saw yesterday look good it may be my first MMO ,,,,
ooo wow lol only after instaling i see i got to do a 1 hour 27 mins download hahah well a nd i was planing on watching a blue ray wit the missis lol ... well nothing i can do right now so ya let it down load and will see what hapens...
lol damn why didnt they make it so i would be able to download on the background lol...
EDIT: i stop the download after i went from bring a 1h27min to a 5h lol .. il let it download over night haha lol........
The download after you get the client is nuts! I just got my next tier from the PS rewards program and I want to download my new stuff but I have to wait till this behemoth stops downloading.
Hope it is good though, my preoder might be affected if it isnt.
Yeah, I get an error message then it disappears from the store. If you reload the PSN it shows up again but you still get the error message if you try to download it.
Pretty damn annoying since it's what I've been looking forward to for a while.
