Well, not literaly.

Choose Edinburgh, then choose East Princes' Street: You race along that street Ewan McGreggor gets chased along in Trainspotting.

After you tear of Lothian Road & turn right, then go past 02, you can PARK OUTSIDE GAME, where I work. My boss will then rub your tummy! He's that kinda swell guy.

This is very cool.
I'm tellin' everyone I know.

It's quite different to drive around it as an 3-dimensional space: They've got the relative positions of the bust-stops exactly right, to an angle to my store, and positioned all the lights of the stores along Princes' Street correctly, and it's just... scarely accurate. Trust me, it's a bit more impressive when you're playing ;).

You used to work at that grocery store called "FOOD" didn't you? Or was that the liquor store called "BOOZE"?

PGR 2 owns.
Not as much as I'm expecting Rallisport 2 to own, but a circuit racer doesn't get much better than this.

Have you seen this thing running on an HDTV? Oh mah fucking GAWD! It looks...real..

Also: You can edit all of the car settings with .ini files if you throw it on the hard drive.

I tuned my Enzo to have 4000 ft/lb's of torque and it just takes off flying in the air no matter how lightly you hit the gas. Makes for some cool replays...

I also made a Mini that hauls complete ass and sticks to the track like it had Movies 10 seats for tires.

No. :( Pal Xbox's don't support HDTV -- The codes weren't written until the Xbox's were waay into production. I don't think it's the kind of thing that's gonna arrive on a net-update, either ;).

I cannot understand how fantastic HDTV is, but I really wanna find out. HDTV, and one of the 4-or-so new 3D-pixel technologies combined, would be fantastic.

I've seen this In Action now. It's really quite cool. I live about two minutes away from there - unfortunately it doesn't let you drive up my street. Which I suppose is good, as it might let the stalkers know where I live.

Sincerely, the texture that they've used for GAME is a photograph that was actually taken on Princes Street. I recognize the display.

Yes -- Remember, there are over 5 tracks set in Edinburgh -- I wouldn't be surprised if your little terrace was involved, atleast the main road near it.

Hello everybody.

What other streets can you race on?

We Don't Know. They're not unlocked in the GAME demo, y'see, and I'm too poor to buy the actual game. You'd have to go through all the bother of actually unlocking the tracks, an' all.

Course, there's always the option of Looking It Up through the magic of GameFAQs...

Are you sure? Different levels cut up the cities differently.

Hanging around the GAME store is not one of the missions which will net you any money in the game, however.
