Overview
====================
I don't think many of the reviews are fair that are below 5-6. They are either complaining that it is an arcade racer or that it isn't like old Ridge Racer games. All you had to do is read a preview or review and you wouldn't be suprised. Neither of those are good reasons to rate a game as a 1... A 1 should be received for a horrific game (worst you've ever played). This game would not fit that description for any rational person.
The bottom-line is that this is an arcade racer that is a mix of Burnout and Split Second (ie. crashing other racers and environment destruction). The game is quite fun at what it is. My single gripe would be like other reviewers that the drifting is hard to adjust to.
Another thing of note is that this game doesn't allow customization of your car. This doesn't bother me, but I'm sure others will complain since they didn't read a preview or review.
Pros
=================
1) fun arcade style racer with environment destruction
2) nice graphics (not too dim on my tv - see other reviews complaints)
3) track builder
Cons
==================
1) drifting is little hard to adjust to
