legbone said:Demo is currently on xbox live. Supposed to be coming today for psn also. Downloading right now. 752.48 megs for those that care. I will post my impressions in a bit (may be a while).
Sold.The only racing game with a AAA character.
I haven't played the demo myself (will do later, though) but I assume that this fog is only in the demo, not the full game - similar to the Mafia 2 demo.legbone said:i really don't like the fact that parts of the world are blocked off by a giant red mist. if you enter the red mist you get a message that states "return to the unlocked area" and your car gets reset.
legbone said:i haven't tried team colors yet but it seems all three modes in the demo are single player. prove it (or whatever it is called) seems to be a short story mission. escapist may also be a story mission as it had some narrative about running from the cops that was more than "just get away, go!". prove it was great fun. it was a really short mission that has you proving to your partner that you can shift. it had a nice variety to it and some humor. i hope the rest of the story mode keeps it up and i don't burn out (sorry). i really don't like the fact that parts of the world are blocked off by a giant red mist. if you enter the red mist you get a message that states "return to the unlocked area" and your car gets reset. pretty big negative in my opinion. what is that bullshit reflections? it was marketed as totally open world. or did i miss it when someone said "oh, that big fuckin red cloud? just some bay area fog. but don't drive into it".

JambiBum said:Team colors is a dual race where you control a father and daughter team. You have to get them to finish 1st and 2nd. You do this by rapid shifting in between both cars. It's actually pretty interesting having to keep track of two cars in one race instead of just the usual one.

Thanks. What the fuck though.Lazlo said:There is no wheel support
Aussies, Euro..etc besides the U.S get it tomorrow for some stupid reason. Region exclusive demos...wtf?Samurai Penguin said:It's still not up on the Aust Marketplace
Ubisoft tweeted that wheel support wouldn't work well with "their handling". Which is kinda bizarre a driving game that doesn't work well with a steering wheel. Here is the tweet :-Neuromancer said:Thanks. What the fuck though.
Drivergame said:@JACAREDEPAREDE No steering wheel support this time, as it didn't fit very well with the Shift gameplay and our specific handling.

Disappointed there is not PC demo, I guess Ubisoft really is going out of their way to convince me not to buy their products (the DRM is already off putting enough as it is).

I have to agree. Don't see it doing well at all.Ooccoo said:There's like 0 hype around this game.

Yeah I know. But as a wheel/racing chair owner its disappointing all the same.Lazlo said:It'd be pretty hard to control the shift out mechanic with a wheel. It requires the analog sticks, plus you do it so frequently.
Who needs a demo? We get always-online DRM. That's much better. Ubisoft cares deeply about us.Cpt.Underpants said:

I just know one and that is a non-issue for me personally (DRM) - what are the others?R_thanatos said:i just don't see how they intend to sell with all those weird and bad ( IMO ) decision surronding this game as a whole .
