... how the *** do i steer in this game?
if i go above 200kph i can't steer any more.
but if i do anything that slows me down(brakes, handbrakes, giving no gas) i also lose the ability to steer.

Yeah, there's like 0 control. I can't get a drift going on at all, even if I'm already steering when I hit that E-Brake
You see, When you go into corners in a car, you must SLOW DOWN. When turning while braking, you will fund a force called UNDERSTEER. Pro Drifters sometimes use the handbrake, but it is a hard way to drift. Also, I would like to see you guys playing Gran Turismo.

it was just the ashton martins.
the only way to get those to actually drift or powerslide is by crashing it into a wall on the inside of a turn.
the cars in the japanese races steer much easier.
 
DISCLAIMER:

This is an arcade racer. But, it is leaning more to the simulation side. A simulation game means that YOU MUST SLOW DOWN A LOT BEFORE TAKING A CORNER. Unlike Ridge Racer, drifting is hard. You must learn how to master the turns. Also, to help your turns, their is a imaginary "line" to follow around corners. this is called an "apex". It is the fastest way around corners.

You see, the best line to follow is the light blue one. The saying goes "slow in, fast out", meaning that you must slow down a lot, but then you can accelerate more after, gaining more than you lost by going slow in. You must find the ideal speed for each corner.

Two words.
RIIIIIDDDDDGGGGGEEEEE RACER!
 
I'm so conflicted. I SUCK at arcade racers but love the speed and drifting, but this game is more like a simulation, which is easy for me but not as fun.

Finally got around to playing this... great job again by firebrand games. My only complaint, though very minor, the hills in San Fran are huge when compared to the Console/PC version. I'd say a 9/10.
 
Holy... It's out! It's out! I've heard nothing but good things about this game. Going to download it while I finish cleaning.

Edit: Got too excited
