When i first played this game with my brother we placed 2nd and 3rd in our first race and after that we were hooked. The game is so exciting all the weapons and great drivers gave me a challenge and we wanted to be the best. Blur in my opinion is the most exciting hardcore edge of your seat racing game i played in my life time and if you don't believe me then play the game yourself and see if you don't change your mind

This game is perfect for: hardcore gamers

Blur is the first game I have ever preordered from Gamestop. The advertising appeal was captivating, the beta version that was available for download on Xbox Live Marketplace was tremendous fun and challenging- also my first beta-, I played the beta from day one, and I got the disc on day one of its release. I haven't gone a week without playing it. If you're one for Burnout Revenge or similar Burnout titles, Blur was my replacement for BR, and I really haven't gone back since.

The single player Blur experience is decent, but the AI is mostly random stupidity, especially when it comes to launching power-ups. The main opponents always get a handicap boost despite the difficulty setting. Most of the Achievements for Blur can be won on the easy setting. The main draw for Blur is, as I stated, that it is very difficult when you are on the track with the best of the best. But that's how you learn to race and fight with balance, like a game of chess on wheels. Never give up, even when there's 6 shunts with iron fist pounding down your neck. Nitro, shield, nitro. Shield. Learn from every mistake. Outsmart. Outwin.

It's really a shame that Bizarre Creations never had the resources to create DLC for this title. That is a constant topic of conversation across Xbox chat in racing lobbies. What is even worse is that this game was the downfall of Bizarre Creations, and that development studio is no longer in existence. It was due to competing games released in the same season of 2010. The release date was not thought out well, and I believe that a little more time could have been spent on removing glitches that only become noticeable when Blur is played online for months, and different things happen, such as no audio, or intermittent audio, or no road noise, or the inability to grab power-ups(rare)... or even being kicked back a lap by a loop on the track.

For a pumped racing, hardcore car, arcade style battle, non-simulation, in-your-face-insane action game on Xbox 360, I give Blur a 9.95. I wouldn't mind if a Blur 2 ever happened to come into existence, but I will always have Blur to perfect.

It makes a great party game for those that like arcade racing with a twist. I can't seem to put this one down for good. This one is a lot of fun. It is worth a try if simulation racing is not for you.

First thought when I played this game: THIS IS FREAKIN INSANE!!!! Ok I will admit that I wasn't all jazzed up about the number of cars they had (only 50, which is pretty average) but they look totally awesome! This game also has a really good damage system. When your car gets jacked up, it looks like it. I'm not always happy to see half of my car falling off the frame, but I mean really, doesn't it suck when you smash into a wall at 100 mph and your car still looks brand new?

It's all on tracks, which kind of sucks because theres no fun of dodging traffic, but having no cops to come kill you and take your money certainly cancels that out. One of my favorite things is that when you crash (and make a full stop) or get spun out to far, or wreck the game respawns you, and it does it quick so you don't lose so much time.

I wish the game had a sound track, but you can't have everything right? The game has SUPERB graphics, and if you weren't racing, you might think you were playing Halo! But out of everything, the best part is the powerups. There is nitrous (you get a ton of points when you do a nitroslam), electro fields, little purple shuiken things you can shoot at people, big giant death spheres, and mines to get those pesky tailgaiters, and a powerup that hits anyone who decides to get to close. There is even a shield and repair powerup so you won't need to waste your time wrecking.

Aweshum game, and a must-have, even if you're not in to racing games!

I really loved this game. It is one of the best car games I have ever played. One of the best parts is the multiplayer destruction. I like playing other people, and using my power-up knoledge and skill, beating them so bad they cry. The power-ups are the shunt, barge, shock, speed, bolts, and my personal favorite, mines [especially when you forward fire them at somebody]. I also like the racing. You can change the skill level, but to me, some of the missions are already pretty hard to do. The only thing I don't love is the sound. Other than that, I have nothing to complain about. If you are just getting into racing or have been, this is the game I would reccomend to you.

This game is fun with all the power ups and cool cars but it gets boring quick.There really isn't a story.Its allot like need for speed most wanted with you race a bunch of people,you have to do objectives to be able to race the boss.
I had this game for about 3days and now i''m bored of it.
Multi-player is ok.Super hard.Theres a ranking system so people at rank 50 will always win.

The ranking system is appropriate.

Posted 1/20/12

Your comment that the ranking system allows players that are rank 50 to always win is very biased. With more time put into the game, anyone would expect rewards, and that's what higher ranks get, but it's not always easy to use them. True, the higher level cars can be much better, but I am Level 50, Legend X, and I won plenty of races while I was a low level on each of my 10 Legend levels. All you need is experience racing on Blur, to learn fast from your mistakes, and focus. You can't win if you're constantly hitting walls. Like driving a real car, you're never going to get to your destination if you don't put any brains into it. You'll end up in the ditch. Good luck on the track. Everybody needs it.
