I played the demo and they way they have everything setup default is pretty disappointing. If you're coming into a corner too fast the car will brake for you, if you flick one of the analog sticks in any direction it feels like there's some sort of lag preventing you from oversteering even when trying to. I'm sure these settings can be turned off but as a first impression I wasn't happy. I can see why they have it like this though. There's tons of people out there who have never really gotten into driving simulators because they just can't keep any of the cars on the track. But that's the point. It's a SIMULATOR. It supposed to be as realistic as possible. If all settings make it easier to play for people new at these kind of games, so be it. But I think it's kinda lame that I have to go through the settings and change a bunch of shit to get a car sideways through a turn.

Jeff, I have to admit, I'm behind you with every car. I am beating everyone else though. You are just too L337 for me.

Not to mention, you can cut off auto brake, abs, tcs, etc very easily. And the game saves these settings. Very easy to fix.

Yeah, I know. I just think it's lame how they call it a driving sim but out of the box the cars drive themselves.

It's to appeal to the entire market.

The only thing I don't like about the game is that I expected the damage simulator to be better. But overall, I think the entire game is going to be awesome.

Played the demo a bit last night. A ferrari flipped and was pinned on its side against a wall. I went and made a sammich, came back and the ferrari was still on its side, inching down the wall about 50 feet away. I LOL'ed.

Last night when i was playing at your house rob, a car was in front of me, and I was pressuring him from behind for the last few corners of the race. And he completely lost it on the last corner and crashed into the wall. I didn't touch him at all. He just couldn't handle the pressure i guess. Not damage physics but that speaks volumes of the Computer AI on the game.
