Pure is great. Never heard of split second so might give that a look if it floats past.


You can get it for £3 second hand on 360 from Amazon. There can be no excuses. Unless you are ethically opposed to Amazon. Or don't own a 360.

the 360 as currently it's jammed down the back of a sofa.


Excuse accepted.

I was looking for a thread about Split:Second and this is the best I could do.

Y'see, I turned on my neglected 360 last night, determined to get into Dark Souls one final time. This meant I played the opening for perhaps the fifth time, before getting to the Fire Link or whatever it's called and getting no further. At a loss as to what I was meant to be doing, and feeling slightly queasy at the judderyness of the thing (did it always used to be so juddery?) I swapped discs for Split:Second, which I can't have played since forever. It is still a revelation. The sense of speed and the thrillingly overblown drifting and the insane set pieces, it was one of the most enjoyable 20 minutes of gaming (it was late, I was tired1) I've had in years.

I'm sure there are good reasons for a sequel never being made, such as bankruptcy or pig-headed idiocy or whatnot, but fuck, can't they make a new one. It would make me sickeningly happy.

I appear to be stuck in a loop, as I forever hunt for a Split/Second thread* but to no avail.

Anyway, this looks excellent.
