This gig has its perks

So I just came back from the exclusive preview event and I'll just say that it was a great experience. I won't go over what was said, the developer present pretty much restated many of the things most of us gamers already knew but the event gave me an idea about many outlets of the Canadian press that cover videogames and how relatable we all are just as gamers. After asking the lead producer a few questions I proceeded to play the game on a setup I could only dream about and I'm definitely not used to a wheel much less one with force feedback. Had a few lengthy discussions about the state of games with a few individuals there and the general reception was that it was about time a simulation actually taught us how to play a game instead of pushing us away.

(This setup was surprisingly difficult to play with, but you get a greater sense of speed, I had an amazing time with it)

(This whole setup most likely costs as much as a car, two or three 360's, three HD screens plus the wheel and chair, but it looks oh so sexy)

Now I'm really limited in terms of the photos I could actually display; in fact I could only show you the crappy one or two selections that I have . Sorry if this sounded bland, I'm pretty exhausted mentally and physically bah, but I had an AMAZING time!

(Gotta love the perks of going to an event like this. My first free game, wee!!)

Good Night..

I'll say that it's definitely the most accessible racing simulaton that I've played so far and the customization options are insane, it has no rival. Also based on what I've been shown and told in regards to the online community involvement, I really think that this game will do wonders for the genre. Car artists getting credit, tuners, racers etc, just a ridiculous amount of online love being displayed with this title.
