I'll probably get MC3, but I'm not a huge street racing fan. The one thing I like about MC2 is you can free roam. My 5 year old son loves it, and it's good practice for him for future racing games. No offense to any street racing fans, there's still alot of effort involved in the racing part of the game, but the free roam part is pretty cool too.

Also, GT4 is definitely on my radar, but without online play it kinda loses some luster. Assuming they actually add online play to it at some point, it could possibly be the best racing game we've ever seen.

This will be alot later in the year, but I'm hoping EA gets it's act together with the NASCAR series. NASCAR 2005 was a big disappointment and I hope they get it right this year. Seems to me NT2003 was almost great and NT2004 was really good.. seems like EA is going downhill with NASCAR. I hope it starts going uphill with this year's version.
