If the PC version doesn't turn out too bad and the game is playable then I will end up getting it on there too, and I will setup a club on that too. Although someone should make a LFS club.
The reason why I liked about the first game was because it was just a casual just driving around game with some really exciting cars. I didn't care if the physics was crap 'cause frankly I wasn't expecting it to be a realistic sim anyways. It's like I don't go play NFS for good physics.
But I saw a dev video on youtube the other day with the developers saying they are trying to get everything as realistic as possible. I think unless they actually get the physics right, it's going to take the fun away. Arcade game can be fun. Sims can be fun too. But what's not fun is a game that isn't arcade-ish enough to be consider as an arcade, nor is it realistic enough to be considered as a sim.
I'd be using an xBox controller, so I don't care about the driving physics.
I don't know if I'll ever go online with the xBox. It's not mine and I'm not sure how long I'll have it. If I would go online, I'd get the game, but I have priorities over paying for online and buying a game right now.
All of the reviews state there is an offline component, the EU version had a problem and would not let people online so everyone was testing the offline only modes and they worked fine. But the meat of the game, the thing that will keep you coming back is the online.
I'm stoked for it. I couldn't care less if it's Mario Kart handling. It's meant to be fun after all.
Question 2. I seen vids of people walking around before races. Can you only do that in houses/shops/casino/before races, or can you stop at the side of the road and get out?
Q3, I read somewhere you can be a passenger, any info on that?
