I went in to GAME in Surrey Quays, as soon as it opened (9.30), 6 people in front of me had already bought the game, one person bought the bundle pack with the PS3 and another bought a steering wheel with it. Anyway, I got home, still ignoring my breakfast and my girlfriend from when i left the house before, and rushed to my bedroom to slip in the game.
I found out that the WHOLE game is installed onto the hard drive, like warhawk. So the game is never really running off the disc. I think that every single PSN title that is released on blu-ray will require the same sort of treatment. I'm expecting SOCOM to require an install too. Anyway, I decided to skip the update first, to check out the game, oh my GOD!
The menu presentation is so slick, the cars look better than any other racing game this gen by far, the handling could be better (or maybe it's just me), but it really is worth the £18 I paid for. I can't play it online right now because it requires an online update , and the GT servers are being hammered by the amount of download requests it's receiving!
All in all, the best demo evarr!
