I tried the demo and found it impossible to drive using the keyboard.
Has anyone had any experience with it?

My question is, how could someone produce such slop as this and actually
They probably developed it, realised they weren't good enough at driving
games or lacked money and ended up with a dodgy product which they needed
some return on. ie. release it in a nice box without anyone having reviewed
it to catch out the keen buyer (thank god for EB's returns policy in the
UK). I suppose Empire are to blame for actually publishing such junk.
