This being a product from Rockstar — the proud and profitable purveyor of such red-meat titles as Grand Theft Auto and Manhunt — you can probably guess what side of law and order you’ll be representing. As a talented wheelman, you’ve been recruited for a set of tasks that have you burning the pavement in three cities (Los Angeles, Paris, and Tokyo), each increasingly difficult road environments. Local knowledge and a set of good tires are a must: pretty much any surface — alleys, escalators, riverbeds and train tracks — can be used to get you to your next destination. A wide range of challenging courses, the hilariously rocket-like properties of the in-game motorcycles, and a memorable mission that has your car jumping a river like a foreign-job??? General Lee, were just a few highlights from this highly entertaining “street culture” curio.
