This is quite possibly the strongest possible method of marketing a racing game I've ever seen. As someone who isn't exactly "a huge racing game fan," I'm much more interested the action of racing.

I'm also a big fan of taking little cars, like Hot Wheels or Micro Machines, and racing them at impossible speeds off of my table, or desk, or into the wall. While Ken Block doesn't crash into anything, the video here is shot in a way that recreates the childish fantasy of breakneck speed.

Still, it'd be cool to see some shit crash and blow up too.

It's not likely that they'd bother to put a suspended camera on cables in in-game footage.0 0Like or Dislike?Posted: Jun 19th, 2011 at 7:08 am

Modern Warfare 2. Oh, wait. I meant 3.

Call of Duty 4 is a spectacular game. The campaign was top notch and the multiplayer was revolutionary. Everything about that game was superb, and when Modern Warfare 2 was announced, we didn’t think it could be topped. Well, it wasn’t. Modern Warfare 2’s storyline was a guilty pleasure for most.
