Game's fun, but this trailer should not be a thing.

They need to work on padding the rooms better. The reverb makes her sound like an amateur porn star. Game looks great though!

For all the shilling she does, you think Danica Patrick would read from scripts more realistically by now. Having her make TV meteorologist-like motions isn't helping, either.
 
That said, using Danica's about the only thing I can hold against Blur and Bizarre Creations right now.

A racer talks about an arcade racing game, the conspiracy goes deeper than a cock down her throat.

"Do you think you have what it takes?" That's a pretty silly question, isn't? I mean, I barely know the rules your racing world operates on. Game looks good, though.

Im baffled on how these arcade blow'em up racers are actually fairly popular. I have 0 interest at all in a arcade racer.

I have little interest in this game. Not only did I find it shallow and short lived but it's Activision, and if I buy it I will feel like the lowest common denominator because Danica is advertising it.  
 
I think it's funny also, nobody outside the USA who doesn't follow motorsport knows who Danica is.

Wow Danica Patrick in this video is just as bad as Aisha Taylor in the Halo: Reach Beta trailer.  Why can't they get someone with charisma who isn't annoying?  Is that too much to ask?

I'm Danica Patrick, one of the only people who can make an uninteresting racing game seem even less compelling.  So you say you wanna play Blur?  Not after I'm done with you, you won't.

Super excited for Blur, but this is sort of the wrong sort of advertisement.

She won one IndyCar race, using a fuel strategy... So yeah, she hasn't won anything yet.

she's an atractive female. The game is marketed towards males. 
 
Figure it out.

If you're going to try to advertise by getting that "hot chick" at least try to make her not speak in monotone while wearing a maternity dress.
 
 
Blur is a fun game, they should just show gameplay and let that speak for itself.

wow that woman couldn't be more dull. Her excitment just seemed so fake with the forced eyebrow lifts, they were probably even on the script
