Quoting: SlackdogWell played it. Can you get a refund cos a game is shit? Horrible camera, dated gfx - I know the game was released a couple of years or so ago but not 1997 surely?

I'll take cream with my humble pie please. ;) Played it some more and some of my comments are still valid but it's a damn good game! Some of the camera angles are still a bit iffy on the default settings but can be changed.

A pair of Hyper X cloud II headphones makes the music a whole lot better!

About as close as Linux gets to burnout revenge atm - can we bribe the devs to make a crash junction mode please!

Oh and Liam - your steam post advice worked! But the 360 pad issues have deffo improved and not had a crash in a while.
