    Awesome

    I am so disappointed with it, it is a broken game on my iPhone 3G. It runs poorly, and even kicks me out at times. A sad day as I had high hopes for this one. If I were to review it for the iPhone 3G I would give it a 2/5 as it looks pretty when nothing moves.

    Strange, I played it on a 2G when it was still in Beta and it ran ok. Well, it runs well on my 3GS… But I’ll really need to get into it in the week before I review it, haven’t had time to get into it fully yet.

    Tried playing again yesterday and it runs a bit better when own playlists aren’t used. Still not what I expected from a Gameloft game. The draw distance is so short that racing becomes a real hassle. Hopefully they manage to cream more power out of the iPhone in future updates.

    Too bad! i was waiting for this but maybe its not that good afterall.

    I am trying to get my wife to understand that she really needs my iPhone 3G so I can buy a 3Gs. That is how bad I want to play this game as it seems to be so good when running properly.
