zombie demo derby!
In all seriousness, it really is amazing how much stuff there is in this game. I'm not talking about complicated stuff (to me anyway) like tuning cars and the minute differences between tuning to win vs. tuning to come in somewhere else.
I'm talking about the different modes of gameplay and the ability to "share" and work together even when not racing together. It truly is amazing, and they keep adding updates for free which is unheard of. I'm sure at some point, there will be paid DLC but this really is the most complete game from single player all the way through to on-line that I have ever plaid. My only real complaint is that it takes a long time to find a good game lobby.

I need to rent that game again from GF. I need to play online. Maybe that will change my mind about the game.

It's not the online part that is so awesome, other than it's a change of pace form FPS and the intensity they bring. It's all the "other stuff" the little hidden things they didn't need to put into it that make it so complete. Granted, it took forever to release, but the package all there. Because the PSN went down, I was able to explore about 70% of the off-line mode and loved every minute once I got a car I enjoyed driving. Now that the online part is there, there is still more to explore/do. Again, it's not a lot of big stuff, but the small things that make is so complete. Once I learned how to navigate the main screen, everything started to just flow. And, as shooters have their class, and each class has different weapons, some we like some we hate; the same can be said for cars. They are not all the same, even with the same options and upgrades. I have come to find I like the GT300/GT500 race cars the best. I'm sure I'll get more into tuning, but right now I love the handling and precision of the race cars and the short circuit tracks.

Greyhound have you been using your wheel or your controller, to me its a hassle setting up the wheel and all but it makes the game 100 times better and lots more fun, also i see Turd and June got the game, its about time I start hosting some Go-Kart racing again, trust me its such a blast with friends

I've been using the wheel for the last 10 days or so. I'm definitely up for some kart racing. The online part right now is my least favorite only because finding the right room is difficult and the handling is so different than in single player.

Glad you are using the wheel, it makes such a difference IMO. I never play online besides when we did kart racing and I joined lakkus's servers a few times and joined a few other servers before with big rigs and drove backwards to be a douche, but thats about it. I would like to play a mode online that was made up by the community in project gotham racing, where you have teams of 2 or teams of 3 or even teams of 4, I prefer having multiple teams of 2. One person from the team would pick a slow car and in that game we made it the minnie cooper and the other person on the team could pick any car they wanted to. You and your teamate would both make your car the same color and other teams would obviously use different colors then yours, and the whole point was to get your minnie cooper across the finish line before any of the other minnie coopers, it was just funhaving your teamate getting behind your car and power boosting you or watching them come smash the crap out of a minnie cooper that was in front of you or trying to block other fast cars from taking you out. its just a really fun game that I would love to try on this game, preferably on Nurburgring

online is the best part of the game IMO. it really shines when you start your own server and host. it allows you to play online the way you want to. I love hosting servers and my servers always fill up with plenty of cool people. You have to get on gamefaqs and get a lot of friends on your list to play with so you can fill up your servers quick, make a lot of free money from remote racing, and trade cars. I can teach you guys how to host servers and really enjoy playing online. Racing against bots is boring IMO cuz they are not a challenge. Remote racing is the key to getting enough money to enjoy the game without worrying about earning enough money to buy whatever car you feel like whenever you want. Go to gamefaqs and make a thread asking for some people to start remote racing with and you'll start getting tons of money for doing nothing so you can focus on buying and tuning cars without worrying about money.

If you guys go Karting again, please message me telling me you have more than 4 people. That was the most fun I've had with the game and I would definitely like to do it again.  I'm down for normal races too but I don't really have a main tuned car to race in...I only use the X1 to be honest. This game would have been cool with a real Drag mode.
