releases when? My experience tells me, the more times a game gets delayed the worse it turns out. I hope I'm wrong here.
It’s really good. I enjoyed it first time out. It’s not pulling up any trees but it runs well and has kept the feel of the racing sequence which lets be honest was the only good thing about the whole trilogy!!!!! Nice low price so worth a punt. Won’t last you long but great to dip into for a blast.
