The final island (hardness level) only has 2 real race maps that you use your own car, both of them circuit races. I found the game pretty fun with great graphics, and I got a little more than a week's play out of it. The computer ai is pretty lame in some cases; it's amazingly hard to complete a chasedown (the one where you have to wreck another car) when the other car is constantly running head-on into other cars. Also it's pretty hard to see the darker colored cars in tunnels, but that's not a big deal and may be by design. Customization is pretty limited, the decals provided suck. I hope there will be an update with more levels (maybe some point to point races or hell even just a 1/4 mile or track so you can race without other cars). There will never be a free roam mode, because there is not enough ram for the level of graphics in this game. There would have to be constant load screens which defeats the purpose of free roam.

And it is a fun game. but it is pretty darn easy. Evading the cops is so easy it is a joke. You simply have to beat them to the finish line but they can be right behind you and you have "evaded them" to the safe house. Not at all like Carbon where evading is much more difficult. The tracks seem very similar as well. On the plus side the graphics are very nice for an iPhone game, but I have seen better. I would say Assassin's Creed is more finished. As much as people want to declare it, this is not a PSP killer. The PSP is still a better pure gaming platform with better graphics and controls. That said, Sony should be very worried as the iPhone can do so much more than the PSP and it is slowly catching up in terms of gameplay. The Game is fun for now. I think I'll probably beat it in less than 4 hours. Hope EA updates it with Free Roam and more "events" otherwise this is a 4 out of 5 star game. I finally succumbed because of all the hype here.

If you want to do it too, you will need: 1) Buy GT2 and fully upgrade it. 2) Then load from options menu training map. 3) When your next move will be to make a slipstream behind a car, you will need long straight part of the road and then make double nitro :) I have zonda already, dont waste your time. Just buy carrera, they are almost identical but carrera more beautiful. Good luck :) I've managed to reach speed 540 km/h on GT2.
