The next big PlayStation 3 racer is not getting glowing reviews. The popular site, GameRankings, aggregates reviews together to come up with the ultimate review score. Thus far, the reviews from five popular game review sites are giving it an average rating of 58%.
Don’t believe in game review ranks? We’re not exactly convinced they’ll give popular opinions either, but they do work well as a guide. In many cases, a review that’s below average is justified while reviews “10 out of 10″ make us a bit skeptical.
A 58% isn’t really a hot score and may lead gamers to rent before they buy. IGN rated it a 7.2 out of 10 because the game was simply too hard. It is supposed to cater to both newbies and hardcore racing fans but career mode is, apparently, way too hard to handle.
IGN stated career mode, on easy, was above average in challenge and will require practice before really making a qualifying race. Definitely may be a niche market - but racing fans will probably fall in love.
