Blur - much more fun than it looks

[Devin]

I'm sure you're thinking what I though... a goofy arcade game for the "Need for speed" kids. But try the demo (if you have an Xbox360) or take a leap of faith... and you may just be surprised.
The power ups mixed with pretty good driving mechanics for an arcade game (as in the car has mass and different braking, cornering, acceleration, etc depending on model) make for some serious "one more race" addictiveness. Zapping that punk who got you on the last lap or ramming the leader and taking his place are really just a lot of fun. Getting more mods and vehicles by rank just makes it addicitive despite yourself.

It sounds like Mario kart on steroid.

Didn't see this till now....

The first thing that turned me off of even trying Blur was when I loaded up a trailer and Danica Patrick came on to tell me how to drive!! What? Uh, Danica, I think you need to start looking for power ups when you're racing don't you?
