dimitrikhoz when is that demo going to be ready,,, I need a new racing game,,, I am bored stiff with Shift..... I might buy the game just for something different to play The demo will only be for consoles, Sunny. The game itself will be a fun game for people who liked Hot Pursuit. ...for Street and Track racing fans, not so much as it is clearly a Road racing game. Jussi

I was a bit busy with work, but in the next 2 days, I gonna give Run a try on my PS3.
I am sure, PC version will be even better. It is less than 30 days left before release.

I'm pretty pissed that this demo is only for consoles.. I'm not sure my dated PC can handle this new toy and i sure am not upgrading it anytime soon.. Buying it for my PS3 is not gonna happen as well since i have the G25 on my PC and apart from that, i have every other Need for Speed for the PC so ... Anyway, looks like this will be the first Need for Speed in like fifteen years i will not buy on it's release date... Bandit

I have tried PS3 Demo, and here are my thoughts: after playing racing games almost exclusively on the PC, PS3 Run looks very bad texture-wise, probably like PC version of ProStreet and not even close to GranTurismo5.
BUT
- car handling is excellent (with the Pad), - sounds, damage, physics are very good, - there is a lot of tactics/skill with all the drafting, nitros usage, and left lane driving, - Autolog live-track is cool and helpful.
I am planning to buy and upgrade to Win7 just because of this game. I am not going to bother buying PS3 version because of the 7 cars, I did not like PS3 graphics at all.

Well, that's quite common issue with all multiplatform games, they simply doesn't look as good in PS3 as in PC and 360 versions, reason to this is that unlike PC and 360, PS3 doesn't use DirectX. Or that's the reason I have heard of. But when speaking about system exclusive games, PS3 takes 360 down in those... And that might be reason why they have desided to give PS3 users those 7 extra cars...
