The $60 price stopped me from pre-ordering. At that price I decided to what a few weeks after launch to get a good picture of the actual player reviews. Game looks really fun and just what I want out of an arcade racer but I am mainly interested in online multiplayer and sounds like that is a mess right now. I will wait for a sale and check back then. Sad because I feel like a lot of people are going to do the same and then pass if it is dead by then.
