Different, challenging; added into a race game is picking up power to trigger explosions. The result can wreck other drivers, yourself, and the debris may remain on the track. With the explosions and sabotage, it is surprising Disney created a game based on 'dirty pool/billiards'. You will have to learn how to drift from the get go. While at first I thought it was a nuisance, as well as friends, but it becomes fun. You can pick up power by drifting, drafting or jumping the car. There are different events other than racing. I some events you will have to dodge exploding barrels, or helicopter missiles. Obviously it is not a realistic racing game: explosions, heavy drifting, avoiding missiles. But it is just that, 'a game'. It is interesting, fun, and overall I gave it good ratings.Read full review

Split/Second has the most impressive destruction and explosions yet seen in a racing game. Forget Burnout and Motorstorm; from passenger jets exploding across a tarmac as you race under a wing, to detonating power plant cooling towers, to collapsing train tracks, Split/Second assaults your eyes as soon as you're off the starting line. There's so much going on during races that it's often difficult to navigate the game's courses, though the designers usually do a pretty good job of marking turns and plastering visual cues around the track.
I've only played an hour or so, but I'm impressed with the game show aspect of this game. This is pure arcade action, with insane speed, stunts and environmental destruction. It's easy to grab the controller, skip the tutorial and dive right in.

One of the best racing games since the days of Burn Out. Two player split screen fun for you and a buddy, Very fast, cool cars and extremely challenging. The power play triggers are spectacular to watch and satisfying to execute. One element of Split Second that I never experienced in a racing game are Boss battles, very cool! If you never played split second, your missing out on a great experience.

This game was actually amazing. Its like if need for speed and the burnout games had a baby. Lots of great arcade racing and action with crazy destruction and environmental hazards and whole level changes that can occur during a race. This is a highly recommended game from this gen of games.
