STUNNING! I love the idea of putting the stats at the back of the car, How genius! considering you spend most of your time staring at its back. Very nice indeed, Love it!
looks awesome. bloom/over contrast is a bit too much, but otherwise it looks really fun. AI looks nice and aggressive too.
as long as the environmental hazards dont get too repetative per track, it could be an amazing arcade racer. but i think after one race of a track you're going to know what to expect the next time you race on it...thats my only worry atm. if they can keep them really varied and almost random, then it should work well.

I want this! This is the type of arcaderacing game i've been looking for! When is this coming out?
They only confirmed it for a 2010 release unfortunately.
Another great looking racer to look forward to. I only hope that they give the option to switch off the announcer and that HUD on the back of the car (Really don't like that look of that). They should also add in a sort of "takedown cam" that shifts the view to highlight an opponent that you destroy like in Burnout.
I had high hopes for this game, and if this video is anything to go by, Split/Second is not going to disappoint.
I just watched this video, expecting another trailer, and was so blown away by it, I had to watch it again right away.
Split/Second looks exactly like everything I had hoped Burnout Paradise was going to be. The only thing missing is the openworld design. However for now, I can live without that, so long as they deliver a truly over-the-top racing experience.
I fear, that after few races, you will learn all those "crash events" and it will become monotonous. I mean, after two laps all the big buildings crashed, and whats left? The "shortcut crasher" and an airplane? Also, if those bulidings are gonna fall the same pre-scripted way every new race, it will loose its wowness...
I hope Im wrong, and it turn out to be an awesome arcade racer
