Dedicated To Gamers review Eden Games's M.O.O.R (Massively Open Online Racer), a new take on the MMO in racing form. But can it stand up to the likes of Burnout Paradise and Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit? DTG find out...
DTG write: "The home console MMO conundrum is one of the hottest talking points at the moment. With Square Enix currently prepping an adequate PS3 port of Final Fantasy XIV and DC Universe Online having just seen release, those hours spent arguing that the massively-multiplayer online gaming world would never see the light of day on consoles almost seems to be over. But the genre is still far from a fit for our gaming..." [ctd.]

It was one of my most anticipated games ever, with a concept years ahead of what Forza Horizon could achieve. But it remains one of the buggiest launches of a game I can remember, completely tarnishing my memory of it."

Such an underrated game, the only problem I had with it was the car physics on anything more powerful the a Golf GTI. But to me this was the original Forza Horizon
Game Informer - It's hard to imagine what to do in a car game except race other cars, and yet with Test Drive Unlimited 2, developer Eden Games found a way to expand the genre's horizons enough to offer an experience that's slightly different from your average racer. Eden's ambition came with a cost, but Test Drive Unlimited 2 is a game that I remember fondly and appreciate for the chances it takes.
This game gets a bad rap, but I enjoy it still. The idea was great, I think that if the devs were just better supported it could have been something truly epic.
Would love to see something like this again, especially on a next gen console.
Dear gameinformer,
look up the fucking definition of cult classic,
sincerely,
anyone who knows what "cult" or "classic" means.
