For me I like games that are easy to pickup and play and this seems up my alley.Jacob Clarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15330616929971450515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8074451.post-59687487491390738162010-12-16T14:51:50.613-05:002010-12-16T14:51:50.613-05:00I agree absolutely with your comments on the Autol...I agree absolutely with your comments on the Autolog's ease of use. What astounds me more though is the simply phenomenal sense of speed. To offer a somewhat juvenile comparison, it's like the scene at the end of the first Toy Story movie where Woody and Buzz strap a rocket to the RC car. As it picks up speed, Woody's face starts peeling back to show his chattering teeth and wobbling eyeballs. That's how I feel when I'm playing. It's brilliant.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12136228636916346248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8074451.post-58673336185311923362010-12-15T19:04:14.966-05:002010-12-15T19:04:14.966-05:00I will have my REVENGE...

Darn it.<br /><br />Also, Rich, sorry about obliterating so many of your scores. It is not done with malice.Mitch Krpatahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15987162934932391765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8074451.post-30475390118110638742010-12-15T12:31:32.727-05:002010-12-15T12:31:32.727-05:00I'm a huge fan of pretty much any asynchronous...I'm a huge fan of pretty much any asynchronous play. It just makes sense for me because it allows for social gaming and unique experiences without having to set your schedule around it or drop everything once someone else is online. <br /><br />Here's something I discovered last night that's kind of inexcusable: the online racing mode has no way to set up a party sort of thing with friends. In other words, the only way I can play online with one other friend is to hope that I'm in a race that's not full (not likely) and invite him to it. It's incredibly cumbersome and frustrating. <br /><br />One note about the autolog. Today they launched the web interface, as well as an iphone app, both of which let you view your challenges and post notes on the wall, etc. I think that could be the big difference from basic leaderboards we were looking for. <br /><br />In my experience, revolution typical comes in gradual steps, and there are a bunch of gradual steps in this games in terms of basic social play.Richard Clarkhttp://www.christandpopculture.comnoreply@blogger.com
