I’m sorry if you missed the beta, I really am, but what can I say? It’s a brilliant game so far.
There are some small problems but the developers do know about and they will be fixed come launch day.
For anyone who loved mario kart, this is a must buy. It’ll go platinum, no doubt about it.

So the creation:
It takes about 2-5 minutes to create a track from new, then you start to tweak it, add buildings and obsticles.
I’ve made 2 tracks so far, total build time, about 30 minutes. And trust me on this, it’s soooo easy.
But it’s also fun to build tracks, so there’s no doubt going to be enough to last a lifetime once the game is out.

so far all the video’s are still processing, so they might look a bit rough right now. They will be in HD enventually.

This one my nephew built – Alpine Chaos:

This is one I built – Drift KING MK2:

Dave (theENIGMATRON) has also made one – Spinners, and it’s er… challenging.

Nice one for getting the Beta. Brilliant game so far.
I just cant wait for the servers to go live tomorrow so I can kick some arse.!

So in the meantime, practice drifting. What do you mean “whats drifting”?

Drifting is the art of going sideways around corners without using the brake to slow down.
Do it right, you earn boost, get it seriously right, and you can earn tons of boost and points.

So how do you do it?
Dead easy, turn left or right, hit X to jump, and keep pressing X.

Try it in the lobby, like this:

So now you know how to do it, download my Drift KING track:

I’d played U2 for some time but then along came Modern warfare 2, Gravity Crash, PixelJunk Shooter, plus others were trying to get me into GTA IV, InFamous, and other games.
But I thought bugger it, I want to finish the single player, and started from where I left off.
Had I known I had 30 minutes game time remaining to complete it, I’d have done it ages ago.

So I completed the single player last night, played some multiplayer, and revisited some of the earlier levels.

Here’s Drake playing Marco Polo with ChloĆ©:

I also made a video from one of the multiplayer replays.
The playback is excellent, I really like the replay feature, and it’s automatic, it just records without you having to think about it.
This vide has no tweaks to it, and it still manages to look great.

This next one however, has some visual tweaks to it, focal length, apperture, and other tweaks. Now it looks nightmarish!
It really seems to add a sinister look to it:
