I haven't played the game. I won't buy it because it's a single player game that requires online connectivity. If you lose internet connection in the middle of the race, you lose the race. That's annoying enough, but I also have satellite so I'll lose connection several times a day. It's brief, but from what I've read that's all it takes to stop the game from saving your progress.
You can't play when their servers or down (which there's also no guarantee they're going to make it playable offline once they shut the servers down permanently). I only left a review to throw my hat in with all the other gamers who are ill about the online requirement.
