Caused another intentional crash after somehow magically getting caught up to again. Everything disappeared on the replay and it got stuck again just floating back and forth on the road making me quit the game again. This must be the worst game I ever played. Whoever is reviewing this should give it a 0 or at most a 0.5 since there's some nice tunes on the menu. I almost want to keep playing just to see what other magical horribleness this game has in store. I mean did they even test this? At all? Even the opening commentary gets cut off. That one is pretty noticeable. I take that back. Give this game a -1 because it needs to be recalled.

So you are crashing on purpose? And with this you conclude that the game has issues.

ok...

I will add that to the 2nd list that we are sending bro....

It could be your TV, but if you aren't having any problems with other games looking good, then it could be your copy of the game. Mine looks great, haven't noticed any jaggy's your speaking of. I think it is a great looking game.

The track ini file's have been heavily modded, as well as the tracks and car models being done from scratch(well some tracks form scratch, other just modified what was on the disc) To get the game to look this good and race this well. Non-paid indivduals have busted their ***, and given their free time and talent to make this game what it is today......... I'm not comparing 2003 to NTG2011, I am just saying, let's not throw so much praise Papi's way. I still love this game though, and the new Rioux mod comes out in 4 days!!

Wow. Then what the NTG2011 developers should have done is tried to find these modders to work on the game for them. That was pretty impressive.

From what I've gathered in other forums, there appears to be an issue with the force feedback on wheels. It must be too strong or something, people are burning out their race wheels, on Xbox & PS3. Could you mention that to them? I'm going to hold out using my wheel until they address it.

Thanks man!

I don't know if you guys have heard/seen this yet, but if you are using a wheel TURN THE FORCE FEEDBACK OFF.

People have been having MASSIVE issues with the wheels and a lot are breaking, over all consoles and wheel brands.

This is absolutely unacceptable. As a college student who has no money and has to budget stringently, I am greatly upset that (A) I paid $60 for a beta-version of a game and (B) that there's a very good possibility my wheel, which I paid good money for (money I don't have to go buy another), is now nothing more than a paperweight.

What a ****. Blue, you better let these guys know they really screwed this up...literally as bad as they could have.
