N0T PENNYS B0AT - Good news is the Resident Evil Revelations demo is really good, bad news is it's the same one I played at PAX East.

Check yourself before you wreck yourself

If you feel the precision steering and finesse maneuvering of typical racing sims pales in comparison to something a little more brutal, DiRT Showdown is the game for you. Putting aside the traditional racing formats of previous games in the series, Showdown focuses on destruction derbies and massive vehicle pile-ups. See for yourself in this new trailer.

DiRT Showdown is due out sometime this May.

Huge Damage you say? So, at 40 seconds, car takes a side impact and barely takes a scratch.. Ok, huge it is.

This looks much better and so much more fun than Dirt 3. Can't wait.

And it looks just like Destruction Dertby, which is no bad thing.

Can't wait to try this online with my friends. I've been waiting for a good demolition derby game for a long time and this looks like it could be it. I have faith in Codemasters.

I only hope that the music in-game isn't what we hear in the trailer. I always thought that some good Heavy Metal is much better for this kind of game.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who can't find the huge damage promised... these are some of the least damaging high-speed collisions I've seen recently
MH The Rockstar - Finally got around to watching The Avengers (I know, only a year or so late). Thoroughly enjoyed it.

The damage looks decent but the game is just Destruction Derby... not necessarily a bad thing, just nothing new. I can't see this game being all that interesting after a few hours of gameplay to be honest.
