Beta Access: Blur

Earlier today, developers Bizarre Creations - the devs behind the PGR games - were giving away free beta codes for their upcoming game, Blur.  Courtesy of CVG, I managed to get my hands on a code, and as of next Monday, should have early access to the multiplayer beta.

For those who aren't familiar with the game, it's an arcade-style racer, that centers around giving the player power-ups to take out rival racers. The game is often described by the mainstream media as being "Mario Kart with real cars". As that description doesn't sound too promising, and because I want to stay open-minded about the game, I'm going to look at it more positively, and describe it as Burnout (which I love) with weapons.

Whilst I honestly couldn't say if the game is going to be any good or not, I'm going to reserve judgement until I've played the beta.  Either way, though, you can rest assured that I'll post my opinions here when I do make my mind up.

This seems like a racing game I could really get into.

The beta is on 360 - or at least the one I got into was.

I personally think Split/Second might end up being better, but am kind of looking dforward to checking this out. The most recent preview for this on CVG said that the game has improved A LOT since they last played it, which sounds like good news.
