Description

Beyond the action-packed racing filled with fast curves, sneaky alternate routes, hair-raising jumps and fully realized damage models that provide for spectacular crashes, Blurs narrative is presented through Bizarres innovative new community-based interface, reaching far beyond the game itself. This unique story-driving social network evolves dynamically as players compete in different races, make new friends, rivals and fans, and connect with other racers both in-game and in real life.

Looking beyond Blurs single player story, gamers can engage in competitive and team-based multiplayer races with up to 20 players online, or on a single console via 4-player split-screen. Bizarre is especially excited to introduce Blurs original social gaming experience Custom Groups, where anyone can create unique multiplayer modes based on their favorite ways to play the game. These new modes are immediately shared through Blurs social network, expanding the game in ways that are only limited by the gaming communitys creativity.

            Comments about Blur (Xbox 360):

            Blur is another excellent racing game from the house of Bizarre Creations but with a weapons twist.

            The graphics are excellent, I suggest reviewing the Digital Foundry tech analysis article found at Eurogamer.com for a highly detailed review of the tech in Blur. The synopsys is: "full 720p resolution, high levels of anti-aliasing, up to 20 cars on-screen at any point, a large, highly detailed rear-view mirror, masses of post-processing effects, no LOD popping". Suffice to say, Blur is one impressive looking game.

            Gameplay wise Blur is simply excellent, especially online where skill and luck play a big part of competing along with your knowledge of the tracks and powerups. As one is always levelling up, it matters little if you finish first or last as Blur is about causing as much carnage as possible during the races. This earns you fan points (the same as the Kudos system from the sublime PGR series) which will unlock better vehicles.

            The single player game is very enjoyable but suffers from difficulty spikes a little way in. Hard difficulty, in Bizarre Creations tradition, is very challenging indeed. Most players will find easy or normal difficulty to their liking. Completing single player boss battles enables you to take their cars online.

            Finally, rejoice those without Xbox Live as Bizarre also included a 4 player split screen mode!

            Overall, Blur is an extremely satisfying experience & well worth buying. An 8.5/10 effort from Bizarre Creations.
