I just left COMPUSA they had it setup on their KIOSK. Its a lot of fun and very damn fast! In fact it takes that crazy style of gameplay from TWISTED METAL and warps it into something very very different and a lot of fun! I was most impressed. And it looks and plays amazing.
But it does not seem like a game I would want to play on my own. Something you play with your friends. Like FUSION FRENZY
I watched the Grinch last night on it amusing flick by the way, hadn't seen it before
There were no issues (skipping, freezing). The playback quality is good and the settings menu system is intuitive.
As for the remote:
PROs:
- nice ergonomic design
- strong signal range
CONs:
- Couldn't they have made it a UNIVERSAL remote (at least to change channels and volume on my TV)
- NO Power button
- NO Eject button
