Anyone know if Blur is Hor+ or if it suffers from the same fail as split second?

I second this request, I thinking of getting it over Split/Second, looks more my type of racing shooter Rollcage / Wipeout type thingy.

Strangely, all PC screenshots I've seen so far are either full-screen 16:9 or letterboxed.

This looks really cool to play splitscreen on a console (like mariokart). Don't know if it is interesting enough for me to justify a PC buy...

Hor+ then... great stuff. Too bad most reviews make it sound like a super-tedious power-up frenzy, I'm craving for a good li'l arcade racer :(

I was only going to take a few sets of images, but I went a little over board and it turned into a DR.

I've been playing it on my 5760x1080 setup. The gameplay is fantastic, and Hor+ but the menus can be a tad annoying. My suggestion is to play for a couple hours on one screen and then swap to triplehead so you know where all the buttons are. Once you're in a lobby though, you can just stay in there and keep racing guys over and over again. Fantastic triplehead fun.

I can't believe a fairly classic arcade racer can be this expensive. And that the Steam release in EU is apparently delayed sine die. I suppose there's a lot of players online now, but are half of them legit owners ? And when the price drops in a couple months and more ppl can afford the game, will there be anyone left on the servers ? Maybe I'm just being too euro-centered here, but this sounds like very poor publisher strategy as a whole...

Actually I'm craving for a fresh arcade racer. Maybe I'll just reinstall Burnout and grab some car pack DLC :?
