A pleasant surprise. Was initially very cynical about EA coming to the apps store with premium prices, but so far (well, with Tiger Woods and NFS) they've dished up some good stuff for the money. Liking this, amazing how this is actually better than the last 3 NFS games on bigger consoles :) Very nice. A pleasant surprise.

It was definitely worth the wait. The controls are precise and easy to use. Framerate is smooth. The car customization options and numerous missions make for extended gameplay. EA did this one right. Some things are worth waiting for. I have been waiting for this game since it was demoed at last September's iPod event. It was definitely worth the wait. The controls are precise and easy to use.

It's the only game I have ever played on iPhone where the tilt controls are smooth and perfect. Tilt controls on this game are amazing and the only game that is implemented well I think tilt controls generally suck too, but this game is a whole new ball game.

You never even tried it, just watched a poor video on this site and made ignorant comments without even playing it first hand. 15fps it definitely is not, the framerate is a lot smoother than that video shows and as graphics go, this is by far the best on iPhone for racing games Typical EA hater.

In fact, it was the default method. And it was, at one point, a shining example of getting tilt controls "right". Then Gameloft issued an update that completely ruined the tilt controls. Uncontrollable mess of a game now. No longer playable, and I now designate it Ass Fault. Seriously, Ass Fault has been THE worst racer on this platform since that update. Friggin' unplayable, and I don't know how ANYONE can recommend that POS. Asphalt had tilt controls too. In fact, it was the default method.
