Two demos in one day! Different genres though, so we’ll let them off. Nemesys Games send word that their new 3D racer, Ignite, has been released, and also has a demo out. You can get hold of the demo here, in exchange for just 414 of your megabytes. The game seems to be a low-budget riff on the Burnout series (with boost earned via drifting, destruction and so on), which demands that you manage your “nitro” to get more points from a race. The less you rely on this boost power, the higher you score. Doesn’t look super-promising, but the demo might be worth a look.

No has commented because they’ve all gone to download the demo!
Funny, I just installed Burnout Paradise two days ago.

I thought Flatout was the low-budget riff on Burnout? (Or maybe Burnout was the high-budget Flatout?)

I thought Burnour felt pretty cheap itself. Fun enough though.

Flatout was a much better Burnout imo, not a cheap one!

Flatout was SO much better.
Plus they promised LAN and they delivered, unlike Criterion.

I can’t tell if it is supposed to or not, but when you press turbo, it feels like the whole universe is shaking.

Scoring higher when not using boost sounds like a bad idea. Hey, here’s a fun mechanic, try not to use it to increase your fun and you will get more points!

It’s not a very good game. Picked it up when it came out several weeks ago, it’s got very little going for it unfortunately.
