>"One of the great things about the internet, among all the horrible ones, is that the abundance of online information makes research simpler. I know this is stupidly obvious when written out, but if you were, for instance, buying a video game in the ’90s, you had to read a magazine to know what you were getting yourself into if there wasn’t enough word of mouth surrounding a particular release. Worst case scenario, you’d just make your selection based on box art alone."Misleading almost seems like a soft way of describing the deception afoot here. Just looking at the cars on the cover, notice how they’ve been blurred in such a way as to almost resemble stock cars if you’re not paying close attention. The one on the bottom right appears to be sponsored by Tide, for crying out loud. (There happens to be a fake Tide-colored Lexus GS300 in the game.)
