Lol prob not, but a pistonheads driver can be proved quicker than a XROC member though.

And you can tailor your car and race other clubs with the same car.
For instance i own a VXR8. And can drive for PH, agsinst VXROC in the UK, and against HSV owners in Aus, and Grrr8 owners in the US.

I'm really keen but not one for preorders - I'm also swaying more towards ProjectCARS for me irregular and lonesome gaming sessions - the club aspect of Driveclub sounds like a great thing but I'd be constantly ashamed I wasn't pulling my weight.

I've preordered the Special Edition from Gamne, it was only a fiver more and unlocks 5 cars + unique liveries from the start, plus another 2 cars and unique liveries as a preorder bonus, and it comes in a foil card box with stickers.

I'm more excited for Project:CARS, but this will do for a month!

I'm avoiding The Crew, looks like typical Ubisoft crap with awful physics and mediocre graphics.

Just a shame I can't get Forza Horizons 2 which does look great, I really enjoyed the first one but don't have an Xbone.

XSome reviews coming through now, read few and ranged from 6/10 to 4/5 and 7.5/10, I was expecting better given this was a supposed console launch title delayed by a year. I've had it on preorder for a while and desperate for a racing game, not touched the console in months, so we shall see.

The free psn+ version has been delayed as well, supposedly to make the release smoother for the paying customers.
I'm sure it has nothing to do with wanting the impatient to stump up the cash without seeing how poor it is first wink

It will have its arse kicked by project cars. I won't buy it because it's taken them over a year to get to this far,and the original game was obviously crap as they had to start again.Project cars looks like a much better game, and they have always been upfront with the release date.

Interesting indeed. I think i might have to hold back on my pre order then.

I'm the same. I pre-ordered the full game on PS store and started downloading it last night in preparation for launch day on Friday.

People have to remember though. DRIVECLUB places itself in between sim and arcade with heavy basis on social media aspects. Project cars is a sim track racer.

Both will be good in their own right (Though I agree Project Cars does look the "better" games)

Project Cars is somewhere between sim and arcade, closer to arcade I would say.

I've played this for a little bit and it certainly is playable but is very "arcadey" If I had to buy one it would be Project CARS.

Is it right that the "club" has a maximum of 6 members?

I don't think so, i cancelled my amazon preorder the other day and went for £35 psn+ offer instead. Downloaded it last night and can play at midnight.
