Bought it earlier this month. Being a racing sim fan and a big Richard Burns Rally fan as well, I'd say it's a fair mix of simulation and arcade. It performs well, looks pretty and is a solid game overall. Only complaint I can think of right now is that the driving aid make it effortless to play (and unfair in online games to fully manual-control gamers like myself). If you guys are playing it on the PC, do post your GFWL IDs
