I'll take some licks for the necroposting here, but I just started playing this game over the weekend, and
I must admit, some of my preconceived notions were a bit misplaced. I am having a LOT of fun with this game, and I'm not getting any of the issues that were highlighted here, but then, Vista x86 can be a funny animal sometimes. (...and lets face it, my rig is an absolute beast
)
Of course it cannot hold a candle to Grid, but then, this is street racing, which has a different appeal (somewhat). At 1680 x 1050, with all settings at absolute max, the game runs like a dream. Minimum frame rate is 45 fps. Very beefy selection
of cars. The European models seem to be the superior selections here. Currently rocking a
sweet Lotus Elise.
Running from police while ducking in and out of traffic at 200 km/h is fun, any way you slice it, and after all,
a game should be fun. Not work.
