For $5 they could do this monthly and I would buy it. Played one run on the one easy and medium tracks. Some interesting new tracks, I particularly enjoyed the Giant Wall. Can't wait to tackle the 3 new extreme tracks. -------------

Got it last night, and played through the easy levels, repeating a couple as needed to take Brent down. ;) Here comes the fun as he takes them all back! One of em took me quite a few tries to beat, which scares me as these were obviously your first few runs. Are you chasing anyone else on your friends' list but me? The game is so much better when you have a time to chase. It's not nearly as fun (to me) when you are not chasing any friends and are just looking at overall leaderboard times. It's hard to get as motivated. ------------- http://profile.mygamercard.net/webdanzer">

You and Slumberland are the only ones on my friends list with the game. I agree that it is nice to have a few friends on the list to chase after. I really think Jason should pick this one up as he does like moto games and I completely dominate him in them.  There are a couple tracks in the medium or hard area that really are not that fun. Pirates, which is just hard to see what you are doing and I forget the level but it is basically a puzzler on a motorbike (it actually forces you to backtrack to advance, not once but twice). Another has you dealing with little red lines and other triggers that you either have to beat to the punch or wait for them to rotate, otherwise you blow up. The one track that has me so far is the 2nd extreme track. I got to the end in 50 or so tries but that last jump is a PITA. My favorite so far is the clock tower. It is just a thing of beauty. -------------

Web, I don't have the DLC yet but I've spent so long watching your ghosts disappear off into the distance over the last year or so that not only do I no longer enjoy chasing after you, I'm not even totally sure I like you any more... It depresses me enormously to report that NFS: Hot Pursuit's Autolog stokes inside me exactly the same competitive fires that Trials did.

Okay Web, I am just going to let you go through and beat all my scores. When you are done with the hard and extreme tracks, I will then see if I have the skills to overtake you. I did that on a couple of the easy tracks and noticed you caught that and proceeded to whip them again.

Your extreme times should be safe for a while. Beat the first track there well below you, and timed out on the second. I need to take those in small doses. :) Adam, the Autolog is definitely what is attractive to me about NFS, but I'm definitely going to rent first based on a lot of rubberbanding annoyances I've seen posted about the 1p game. ------------- http://profile.mygamercard.net/webdanzer">

The second one is a PITA. Most of your times on the easy and medium are safe. I rarely go back to these and gold is usually the extent of ability. For some reason I dig the hard and extreme levels. They allow for a few screwups and still be successful. Right now they are the top downloaded game on XBL and Red Lynx deserves every penny it gets from the game and the DLC. -------------

It appears we have a bit of a rivalry now with this game. Just when I had beaten all your Hard track scores, except the last two, you wiped them all out.  I got one back and with little college football on Saturday you have given me something to do.-------------

Good! That's the way I like to play! :) Take 'em all down! I need to get back to some of the tracks on the first pack. When I got 'em right away, hardly anyone on my friends list was playing, so I didn't put much time into chasing anyone because no one was there. I then stopped playing for a pretty long while, and I come back to see most of my times obliterated by quite a few people. Got one of those back last night as well. ------------- http://profile.mygamercard.net/webdanzer">

Don't forget about those extreme tracks, you have some catching up to do there. I will try to have all the hard tracks back by the weekend.

I managed to get a couple of extremes, though I expect you'll have them back before too long. Been eking my way into first on some of the first DLC pack's medium and hards, too. Please come take some of the mediums and easy's, as I only have bronze in some there, and I want to chase to improve! :) ------------- http://profile.mygamercard.net/webdanzer">

I will give the med and easy a look but normally your times are beyond my abilities. I took a few hard from you this weekend (did not have much time to play) but fear you have them back already. Will definitely look into the extremes.

You should be able to get some of the new pack easy and mediums back, as I only gave many of them a couple of tries. Some of the older and original ones will be much tighter. Some of your small amount of falls on some of the extreme tracks are just sick. No idea how you managed some of those. ------------- http://profile.mygamercard.net/webdanzer">

Having OCD helps. Of course the guys that sicken me are the ones who can fly through them with no falls and get through it without any stoppages. On the middle Extreme track from this new DLC there are people making it through in under 30 seconds. Those guys need to seek help or play something other than Trials HD on occasion. -------------

Okay I got a few of the easy and medium tracks back. A couple I am not fond of and won't even try again. I had to get my two babies back (extreme tracks) with hopefully a enough distance that you won't be beating them in a day. Now time to work on the non extreme tracks but I am taking a day or so off from the game to let my thumb heal.
