TD Ferrari Racing Legends is made by the same team that made "Need for Speed:Shift," and "Shift 2 Unleashed," which is Slightly Mad Studios. The engine and car handling is very similar. I don't why people are hating on this game. I'm not fond of the menu layout, but the tracks, cars and handling are on par with the previously mentioned games. I'm also not as fond of the strict career path, but even then it has it's options, with 40-50's, 60-70's and modern era's available to race in. There are also some extremely difficult races even on the easiest difficulty.
There's also some sim-style elements that some sim fans have called for in GT5 and Forza, like race qualifications. But alas, NO upgrades/modifications, Ferrari would not allow it.
Also the comparisons to Forza, though inevitable, are hardly neccessary. Though they are certainly both racing games, with TD:FRL a little more on the arcade style racing, but it's got a significantly different feel, which I'm okay with. I bounce between Forza 4, GT5 and Shift 2, and I like TD:FRL in the same vein as Shift 2.
Hope this helps, God bless
