I couldn't play last gen games anymore. It looks decent, but I can't go back.

Not that I have played this game on 360 yet.

I said wow. The PS2 game actually looks worthwhile. Good, even!

I adore the 360 game and it's good to see the fun coming to my last-gen brethren!
 
Great. I'm definitely picking this up. I came so close to buying one of the many 360 bundles online that came with this game. Now I can save myself the trouble and just get the PS2 version. Doesn't look bad either.

differences between ps2 and xbox360 version

http://ps2.ign.com/articles/746/746711p1.html

best part:

But not to worry -- we've made up for those omissions with some amazing new features! The PS2 version is using Melbourne House's highly specialized "Racing Engine" for car handling, the same engine that grew up through DethKarz, GP500, LeMans and Grand Prix Challenge. The cars have all been hand-tuned for PS2 and they have definite personalities - from the heavy US muscle cars to the nimble Lotus, or the insane acceleration and wheelspin of the Supercars. TDU PS2 will suit both newcomers and hard-core racers, and everyone will have their own favorite car that handles just the way they like.


whoot - the game will finally have some decent handling!!!
