It is a beautiful looking game slightly marred by the jaggies but you only really notice them when getting into the car or when starting a race and your driving at a low speed and the fences etc are suffering from pixel crawl. Once you're up to speed the motion blur (which is a bit weird..can't quite put my finger on it but it's not motion blur I'm used to seeing on other games) helps to alleviate the issue somewhat but then another issue pops up when driving at speed which are the flickering shadows which also update slowly. And the leaves that are flung into the air when you drive through them seem to be updated at a lower frame rate? Dunno maybe it's because I'm used to Nvidia PhysX.
It sounds like I'm nit picking but they kind of stick out with the rest of the pristine presentation. But once those initial disappointments recede and you keep playing and get used to the handling and gaming mechanics, you really start to appreciate the graphics and the gameplay. Personally I think the reviews were really harsh on the game and would advise everyone to try for themselves, be a little patient and get used to the handling. Shame you can't for now thanks to the server debacle :/
