I too went out and bought the game. and these are my thoughts on it.
Pros: Carlist is huge. Almost doubble that of NFSMW, but where are my S2000 or Ferrari? City is huge, very Tokyo like, but repetitive. With the exception of a few things, most of the city looks just like the other parts. Thus making free roam not fun to look at. Storyline. Its actaully believeable, and well intagraded. Not just a cut scene at the begining and end of the game. Driving physics are amazing. Even on the keyboard it handles just like you would expect the real thing to. Lots of cash, no more poor street racer barely being able to get parts for one car. I've got a full garage with fully upgraded cars. Cops and other traffic got really smart.
Cons: THEY TOOK MY GTR AWAY AGAIN!!! I'm sorry, but I bought MW because of the GTR, then when I it in the car list for carbon I got really happy. But no, again EA just plays with my emotions and takes it away again. All cars arn't unlocked at 100% completeion. You can't mod the Le Mans Quatro. The game was way too short. The early turf bosses are way too easy to beat. Online is kinda screwy. Theres no more lobby, but just tell EA kinda what your looking for, and they will find a server they think you will like. And if you want to play with your friends you have to go through a whole long process to hook up with them.
Overall I plan to keep it around, but I would suggest not buying quite yet. Its a good game, and thankfully they dropped it $10.
Cheers
