Anyways, I put more time into the demo and notice the game is more controllable when in the hood or bumper view, where the camera isn't moving on its own.
Nope. No PC demo and have to wait a week on XBL. Though this is exactly part of what's wrong with that. Everyone says it's terrible and now I'm not looking forward to it anymore after wanting the shoes and being ready to pre-order it. Of the 6 possible games next month this was already 5th so these impressions haven't helped anything and when I do get the demo I'll be going in looking for all these things wrong with it.

Heard the Lambo is like entirely undrivable and there's constant framerate/graphical problems at least on the 360. I watched the video kotaku put up yesterday and it certianly didn't look anywhere near what I thought it did so that had me questioning it already. It's possible all the previous showings were the PC version though so it'd at least look the part. Though reports of terrible controls don't help. From watching some vids it looks like the car isn't even attached to the road.
