Abstract: Car games are a dime a dozen but every now and then, a developer will challenge the current genre and this is where the game Blur comes racing into the race. Although the game is a competent and graphically impressive racer, where this game does stand ...
Online multiplayer is awesome, in-race goals are fresh and set the game apart from other racers, power-ups allow for strategic depth
Single player is marred by the far too common checkpoint and destruction modes
