I just really really have a lot of fun with this game. And before someone starts, no i'm not an Atari fanboy. The multiplayer featured and menu's are well done and there's just a lot to do. So right now there are some issues with servers and some bugs, but i'm sure these will get fixed soon. If you expect Forza controls, yes you're going to be dissappointed. At first i was pretty dissappointed with the handling, but i soon got used to it and when you get to drive more cars, you notice all the differences between them and some are really awesome to drive with. I don't have a steering wheel so can't talk about that. I'm speaking about handling with a controller though. Remember, this is an arcade racer, not a forza. The game has great atmosphere and the weather and day- and nightcycle are a welcome addition. And overall, they really aren't that bad. The xbox 360 wouldnt be able to handle such graphics AND provide such a huge world. Yes, the graphics aren't top notch, but what people dont seem to understand is that this is a HUGE seamless open world. If i had to give an objective review, i'd give it a 7 or 8 because of the issues. that's rare for me, and even more so because i'm not really a race fan. I feel like a little kid on christmas eve since i got this game. I'm giving this game a 9 because of the fun i have with it. I can say without a doubt that despite the minor graphical and disc-streaming issues this is still one of my top five favorite driving games ever to come out for the 360. Sometimes the graphics will stutter when the game is loading during gameplay, but this mostly seemed to happen during freedriving, and barely ever happened during the instanced races. However, the graphics in this game are about the same detail as those in MC:LA, which is not a compliment since that game is over three years old by now. That means you'll plow through vast plains of 3-foot high weeds, get massive air off mountainsides to jump across riverbanks, and navigate tight urban streets more akin to MC:LA.

If you are familiar with Midnight Club:LA, imagine that game but with a map that is much larger and has a much greater variety of terrain including the full real-life islands of Ibiza and Hawaii. Those of you who enjoy Midnight Club should definitely check this game out. You can also start races by pressing A as you drive over their starting line. The person who issued the challenge chooses any event they have unlocked (there are nearly 200 different events with more in DLC already confirmed), when it pops up it shows the proposed event in the bottom corner of your screen and you can press Back to ignore it, or A to accept their challenge. There can be around 50-100 cars spread all around each server's map at once, and up to eight at a time can jump into an instanced race, cop chase, or other type of challenge. You can start races with any cars around you by pressing A to flash your lights which shows your challenge on every player's screen that is close to you.

Once you get together with all your friends, get ready for hours upon hours of driving around together.

There are some other minor problems mainly related to interface and things like finding other players during online play (filtering the map to show only my friends inexplicably showed nobody but I had 4 friends sitting right beside me at the time). This is an extremely fun game with a massive open world, but it definitely has its fair share of issues regarding certain things like the This is an extremely fun game with a massive open world, but it definitely has its fair share of issues regarding certain things like the occasional texture pop-in and/or screen tearing that may occur (which is quite common in open-world driving games).
