In the Prologue you have to earn his money so that you can drive all the cars. In this respect no new features. But the graphics and sound are a quantum leap. Even the people waving at the roadside are now no longer flat silhouette target. Also the lighting conditions change from lap to lap. Time the sun on your back, side and front. When driving out of a tunnel you will be blinded - all reality so adapted to a scary is. Photorealistic scenery rushing past you that you may actually stop - just time to make a little sightseeing tour.
Only the missing damage model would be in the full version of the Hammer. Also a possibility of tuning individual vehicles lacking initially but will be activated with progressive course of the race.
Unfortunately I do not own a wireless DualShock Controller - which provides then with the known vibration in the hands of a real racing feeling.
But remember: it's just the Prologue. A prelude. Not more. But what you see here and get to play with is the reality madness par excellence.
Here it is really worth it to finally buy the new awaited plasma or LCD TV. Who still does not have surround sound system in his possession, which should quickly buy a. Because otherwise go at least 50% game lost.
And now the all-important answer to the question: well worth the money issue - or should we wait?
Given the price I have in any case much longer considered and accessed. I was not disappointed, at least in the first rounds and can be bridged with the Prologue time to publication of the full version. It is, at least as a fan of such games, just too hot on the number, as that they are allowed to pass.
My recommendation: BUY AND BE AMAZED - AND PLAY until the doctor comes!
