![]() Trucks, vans, SUVs, sports cars, buses, garbage trucks-they all handle in a way that suits their size, weight, and shape. But a crappy little compact has just as much of a distinctive feel to it. Drive a muscle car and you can really feel the power of the engine growling under the hood as you slip and slide around the streets. It also gives every vehicle a unique personality. It's not a driving sim, but the level of nuance and depth underpinning the handling model is surprisingly complex-which gives the game a feeling of weighted realism. This forces you to think more about how you're driving and the layout of the road ahead, not just bomb around like you're playing OutRun. You have to consider the weight of the car you're in and the inertia your acceleration has generated, which brings a knife-edge tension to every chase. If you miss a turn, you can't just slam the brakes, come to an instant stop, and quickly reposition yourself. When you're behind the wheel you're fully at the mercy of the physics engine.
