Today is a game that should've been way more popular than it's numbers suggested.

Released in 2010 for PS3, 360 and PC, Blur was the last swan song for Bizarre Creations better known for works like Project Gotham Racing, it was billed as the Mario Kart for the hard core gamer where progression was dictated by fan numbers instead of currency. And yes you can blast your opponents with power ups, so their mission statement is very much real.

It's legacy lives on in Forza Horizon who took on several of it's crew when Bizarre Creations got shut down.

Pros
Extremely fun
Good power ups
Some epic races

Cons
Progression is painfully slow
Never really got the social media selling point to work.
Some bull shit achievements.

Verdict
I love Blur for being fun and I actually do find the game better than Mario Kart
