From Bizzare Creations, makers of the PGR racing games...
Looks like it could be fun.

Bizzare Creations have a very solid reputation within the racing genre...surely this has to pretty good!?
Looks decent enough from that clip, but the proof as always will be with some hands-on time with it.

Lots of lovely new footage.....
Handling/physics looks a little too arcadey, but looks fun & makes for a nice change of pace from the more serious racers out later this year.

Still not sure about this one. The footage does look fun and the power-ups and more arcade style racing make it a different sort of game even than Dirt 2 or Need For Spee: Shift. Kind of reminds me a bit of Midnight Club 2 or 3 with power-ups like in Jak X. With all these driving games I wish somebody would make a decent up-to-date Twisted Metal.

Forgot to mention I really like the interface/menu screens. Looks very clean & almost Tron like.

Blur does nothing for me at all, i really wanted another PGR game but sadly that will never happen.
But thanks for the Scrap Metal video, looks great fun!

Another potential xmas game is pushed to somewhere in 2010.
Not bothered, just means more time to play COD:MW2
