Looks awesome, reminds me a bit of the helicopter section from Half-life 2.

Still don't know about this game. The demo was pretty damn lackluster IMO while the Blur multiplayer demo/beta seemed a lot more fun to me.

For anyone in the UK and want this for PC you can only pre-order it from Direct 2 Drive. That's why it's not listed at any store.

I just played the demo and couldn't stop playing it over and over until it wouldn't let me play anymore.  Just one level and one car and I couldn't stop playing.  Fuck I want this game bad.
 
Between this and Blur at long last I have a couple of new racing games to sink countless hours in to, not since late 08 has their been such a game for me, let alone 2.

 NASCAR would get record setting ratings if it involved helicopters shooting missiles at cars.

Game still looks like it'd be a lot of fun but for me on getting rid of helicopters, those evil damn helicopters, I want 50 Cent to photobomb the screen at a certain point then have missiles (aimed at the helicopter) spawn from all over to kill it. Better still would be some type of Monty Python animation style where 50 Cent's hat would just hinge open with stacks of missiles inside to launch at the helicopter. Either way would be better than just racing over orbs.

I've said it before, I'll say it again - Racing GOTY.
 
I wonder what the Giant Bomb's 2010 Game Award category will be called that will classify Split/Second the winner.

Man, that Q**** has made all the early comments for everything compelling viewing. I haven't watched the video & I'm never going to.

Hmmm. This seems like it will either be way too frustrating or way too easy. Something like this seems hard to balance for all players. Hopefully it doesn't immediately bring back Stuntman memories.

So is this game called Split Second, Split/Second, or Split>>Second?

I actually find myself clicking on videos I normally wouldn't just to try and get the quest. Then I watch the video. So I suppose that is one benefit of the stupid thing. Oh yes, that voice over guy was lame as hell, "So fasten your seatbelts!". Urgh.

Probably the coolest game modes I've seen in the past 3 years.

Pre-order bonus did it for me - better than Blur? Not sure about longevity though.

quest!
 
Anyway on topic: Split/Second seems like a lot of fun, I played the demo and what they showed at PAX East. I'll probably pick it up after it drops in price with Alan Wake, SMG2 and 3D Dot Game Heroes out.
