Well... its one of those free MMO's, so you will have to put up with all the gear you buy expiring after a set time. Even the hoodies that were handed out to Escapists as a promo are gone in less then a week. The gameplay isn't bad... the whole idea is to race, and get more tricks, better tricks give you more boost which makes you go faster. The community is... abysmal. Some don't speak English (I can't really complain about this though, everyone doesn't have to learn English), which can get annoying when the game host doesn't understand how the game works. I chose a girl out of the three characters because...she looked the least ridiculous, every 5 races or so I get a couple people following me around in the game lobby to ask to go out with me... *sigh*
Just because the Escapist has it as an add doesn't mean its perfect, its actually pretty good all things considered. It is still in beta so there are a few glitches but it isn't bad.
