Guys....
Immidiately after Split Second went for this another awsome game called BLUR, why immediately as Split Second had 7.5 score on gamespot and this had 8.0, so with obvious curiosity, I was too excited to start this game.
BLUR also follows the same league as to be a total arcade non simulation type game, infact it is even more arcade style than Split Second.
What BLUR has done is introduced an innovative way to use some pretty over the top kind of weapons seen in Mario kind of games and incorporate those in a car racing game. Add to that some nifty stunts, decent graphics and pacie action and you have BLUR. Result is some very exiciting gameplay
that needs fast reflexes to conquer.
GAMEPLAY ::: Hows the gameplay.....fast and pacy much like Split second, but as I said more arcade style, as here when you shoot your opponent you dont blast him off the track, but just slow him down enough for you to take over.
You have ICONS on the track that give you specific powers, like Shield, Lazed gun, Nitro, Electric Shock. You have to use these powers to slow down your opponents and eventually win the race. At the end of all the rounds you have to challange the main Boss, whome you have to beat in order to quality for the next round. Its an one on one race and very enjoyble.
The whole experience is made pretty colorfull, with the weapons creating the distruction in a very multicolor manner. There are 63 events to compete in, topped off by nine bosses. There are three unique event types: racing, checkpoint, and destruction, with different rules. Overall Game is very engaging.
GRAPHICS ::: Graphics are at par with todays gen games, but more colorfull as per the game equirment. (Assuming that you are playing 1080p resolution with all settings set to high).
6.5/10
SOUND ::: Well sound is definately not as good as Split Second, but decent enough, the distructions are not the devastating type so the sound effectes are kept like the typical mario style, which is essential to the gameplay and environment..........
7/10
