That doesn't make any sense. It's the same engine. Only difference is in car models and tracks.

Yes, because M3 is heavier, and has rear wheel drive, while most of Volvo cars have front wheel drive. That makes the difference. And, M3 has about 200 more HP.

Yes, but Ferrari game is based on Synetic's engine used in MBWR, WR2 and Cobra11 games, which is way too arcade. While M3 and this Volvo game use same engine as GTR, GTR2, Race, Race 07...

LoL @ it not having car damage thus being dismissed as crap.

I never realized a racing game was intended to play out as destruction derby. Laughing The dude above has a picture of him driving in oncoming traffic, gives you a general idea of how retarded the average gamer is in terms of their gripes in modern games.
