There were quite a few times that I found myself staring at the TV just wishing I could just race or kill Travis Pastrana. 

It is also visually stunning and the short load times, compared to the original are fantastic.  Thanks guys for some great advice with this one.



My copy of Dirt 2 showed up yesterday and I got a chance to play it this morning for a while, and it's a lot of fun. I'm even enjoying the time trails, which is not something I expected. I'm anxious to try it out online.

Yes, the graphics are great. Even my son commented on how good the graphics look.

Can you do 9:30?

I'm up for trying both Dirt and Shift, if you like.  I haven't played either online yet.

Sounds good. 9:30 should be fine.

Maybe Ted and Adam can join us too.

I would love too, but I don't have either.  They are in my Gamefly Q though so maybe soon.

Would have loved to, but my 360 is currently hooked up to the TV in the living room, and I'm not there.  I do want to try this online, though, and look forward to some online impresssions.

Great races tonight Derek!!!

Derek and I played for about and hour and it was perfectly smooth the entire time - I couldn't tell the difference between online and offline play. We were talking about how much fun this one will be online with a few people and are hoping to maybe setup a regular night for racing each week. Thursdays are good for Derek and I. What about everyone else?
