Project Gotham Racing 2

Game History
************
Back in 2000, Metropolis Street Racer (MSR) launched into the market and was an instant success; I was one of the many proud Dreamcast owners who had bought this game. MSR had tried something new with its racing system. You would progress by just driving fast and beating the other racers to the finish line, but it was all about driving with style and still winning the race, so you would have to power slide your way around the streets of 3 real-life cities around the world! Project Gotham Racing 1 and 2, have kept the similar system. This on the whole, works really well!

As stated above, this game isn't the same as your bog standard racing game, you have to race of course, but you have to gain 'Kudos' in the race. Which ...
Advantages: Wide variety of cars to choose from Disadvantages: Night racing mode a bit too dark
If you are seeking an XBOX racing game, Project Gotham 2 is definitely the one for you. Basically, Project Gotham is quite a fun and realistic racing game, with great graphics, sounds and cool cars. There are many more tracks and cars on XBOX Live service.
In the game, you have to drive as wild and crazy as possible without losing control in order to accumulate Kudos points that allow you to purchase new cars to use. Drifting and drafting (following closely to the car in front of you), picking the best line through the corner and several other techniques will also allow you to rack up Kudos points.
Cars are impressively detailed and accurately modeled and the cities you race in are very realistic. There are over 200 soundtracks and you can also copy your own songs from your preferred CD to the XBOX's hard drive and play ...
Advantages: Speed of small transfers Disadvantages: No ReadyBoost, feels cheap
Hi today I will be reviewing a Kingston DataTravler 2GB USB Flash Drive. I bought this a few months ago after losing my other flash drive. It cost me 9.97 from PC World but I believe you can get them cheaper in other places.
Speed
For the data that I transfer to it i.e. pictures and some small visual basic programs it transfers them extremely quick compared to some cheap flash drives I have used in the past.
Problems
So far I have had no major problems other than in windows vista it is not capable of running ReadyBoost which a free flash drive I had a while ago could.
Size
The overall size of the flash drive is quiet good the USB connector slides in and out with a rather flimsy press and slide switch.
Feel
The Kingston feels rather cheap and plastic considering the price I paid for it anyway.
Over all this is not a bad ...
