If you were fan of the "Destruction Derby" series as i was, then you're gonna love this new racing game.
It's a semi realistic driving game with an advanced damage system thanks to the Havok engine, which takes into account the slightest impact and change in the environnement.
(stuff that should've been implemented into hl2)
The damage system even extends to the objects in the environment... if you have a violent crash, the driver can be ejected through the windscreen letting you admire the ragdoll effect of your body flying through the air!
It has already been released in Europe but not here in the US though.(you can order it over the internet like i have)
It's going to be released this Spring though and it will be available on all platforms. You migh wanna check out the demo

It's a nice game, especially for those who fancy driving games. It's got nice physics and graphics, the sounds are mediocore, the races are challenging enought without being overly impossible, lots of bonus game modes that offer a lot of fun, mainly because of the nice physics engine :)
 
I tried the demo and thought it was fantastic, the way you can damage the car is so sexy :)
 
Playing darts or doing the highjump with your little ragdoll driver is just the best fun.

I found the grinder car to be best for the bronze levels, but cant find a car that feels right for the silver levels, any hints?
 
Played the demo, was a great game. Cant find where they sell it in the us tho.
