Aside of that HDR, which looks like decreased dynamic range actually, the thing that is absolutely weird for me is that sepia brownish tint on everything. Looks like it became inevitable for any console game now. A kind of “monkey see, monkey do” for every game art. I am gradually getting sick of it. Modern game now almost looks like Rembrandt Harmensz van Rijn. Only paint cracks are missed. The European painting went through centuries of development new pigments chemistry to get rid of total brownish earthern colors domination but games now go back to the Middle Ages.

Looks somewhere in between to me. I wouldn’t class it as arcade as these days car physics have advanced quite a way since Outrun and Pole Position :)

The chase view is as arcade as it gets though.
Its almost begging for another 50p in the slot after the Game Over message.
Lets call it “Simcade”. Like what I expect NFS:Shift and GRID 2 will be.

Look more fun than realistic. At 0:31 the physics didn’t look to solid, car hit the barrier at like 60mph and just slid along it.
Despite this, I think I’ll get it.

Is this going to be a SIM or a arcade game? Would be very fun to drive those cars if they had realistic physics.
