| Summary: Amazing Game on the PSP - Don't Compare it to the Console
92
I think this is so far the best game out for the PSP. It's a slick arcade style racer that lets you mod the heck out of the cars. Everything to paints, plates, body kits, tires, physics. Man, you can even customize the music tracks played while you race.
Cons: First, don't compare this to the console games. While it's about 90% there, there are a few things left out. Pearlized paint isn't in the PSP version and a few other minor things like that. The motion blur nitro effects arent as good, nor is the slip streams. The load times move from 10 seconds to 70 seconds. Purists complain of a lowered frame rate, but I don't notice anything choppy. No pedestrians. And lastly, the sense of speed isn't as intense as it is on the console.
Pros: It's not a console game on the PSP. This is a completly recoded (more or less) version of the game. A few cars were added and it's amazing on the PSP. Everything is amazing. Rotating cameras when you hit jumps, the look of the cars, speed blur from nitros, and everything you can do to your car. The races are great. On screen HUD is just right, the maps are fine. Plus the amazing selection of songs you can listen to.
This is the best game I have played so far on the PSP. Yes there are some issues, like the load time and repetitive tire screach. But the play truly out weighs all the issues.
Conclusion: If you like racing games, especially arcade style games, pick this one up. Its easy to do all your car customiztion without having to be a car fanatic, and the races are challenging enough the make the play exciting. Dont expect it to be the console version on the PSP. It a PSP game. Play it as you haven't played the others and you will relealize how amazing it really is.

Do you feel after you modify your cars, that they really feel unique to you, I guess thats a big concern for me... like, check out my car.

Well the outside is very unique and I feel the car is mine. Hell you can pick what state the plates are in and they even have the state plates look just like they do in real life.
The engine and parts upgrade is a little structured which is nice so you cant mess a car up too bad.

Good point corrie, I noticed that as well. I have lost control only to win the race in the end because I have passed the computer generated car smashed into traffic. Or at times I will get lost and find a quicker way around the city and win.

I wish you could save a picture of the car to the memory stick... then we could really show them off.

Just take a pic using a digital camera.

I could... But everyone's would be different quality... It'd be much cooler to have one standardized picture process in the game to spit it on the memory card. That would be an awesome feature.

I'll echo corriewf's statement there - not only doesn't the AI cheat, sometimes the AI is downright d-u-m. Then again, other times, it isn't. It's a nice balance.
Whether or not the game intended to do this, I'm now thinking about tuning my own car. It looks like so much fun! The only problem is I only drive from home to work, and can hardly justify the expense on a commuter vehicle. Alas, I am old.
