Author's Review
Ridge Racer meets Mario Kart was my initial thought of this game. But I have to say, It sure was a fun game to play.

When it was first released, It was overshadowed by both Modnation Racers and Split/Second. Both were great games in their own ways.

The only problem I had with Blur was that if you have signal problems and/or a lousy modem (both of which I have), then the lagging will put a damper on on-line play, but that didn't stop me.

The single player mode was as intense as the online play. It mainly revolves around completing certain challenges and defeating CPU's in a boss battle to win their cars.

Online play is a lot of fun and it gets hectic with all the missile's and land mines flying everywhere. But it also gets very annoying with people cursing and throwing out words on the voice chat. On the plus side, you can mute them if they get on your nerves.

The Power-Ups:

-Barge: Creates a shock-wave that throws of your opponent.
-Shock: Creates lighting domes in front of the leader.
-Bolt: Shoots 3 rapid rounds that will cause your opponent to loose control of their car for a few seconds.
-Mine: You can drop it behind you or you can shoot it forward. A very useful power-up.
-Shunt: A homing missile that can be shot both forward and behind you.
-Repair: Heals all the damage your vehicle has sustained.
-Shield: Creates a dome around you that temporarily protects you from damage. Can also inflict damage to your opponent if you touch them.
-Nitro: A quick burst of speed that can even harm your opponent if you ram them.

All-in-all, this is a must play racing game, especially if your getting bored of games like Grand Turismo and Need for Speed.
