    Think it was this game that I went to play a while back and it needed an internet connection to start. So I didn’t play it but instead left the only review that I have ever made on Steam to not recommend it.

      This is the game that put me off preordering forever. I got it just as it came out and it was SHIIIIIIIIIIT. After starting the game I would get 15 minutes of “xXBlazeIt420Xx beat your score on (some shit challenge)” scrolling up the side of the screen. I’d understand if it just told me my friends had beaten me, but it felt like telling me the whole world had.

      Then there was the memory optimisation… Start a flying challenge, fuck it up, restart… IT TOOK OVER A MINUTE to load back to the start of the challenge.

      If that wasn’t enough, the world just felt empty compared to JC2. There were vast areas of nothing but fields between towns and it sucked. I put it down a week after buying and never picked it up again.
