    Great port and a ton of fun. I remember the controls on the PC being not-all-that either so I don't have a gripe with them. I actually seem to be playing better than I used to back on the PC. It's amazing how it's been so long since I played the game and, yet, it was a trip down carnage lane once I started playing it.

    Think I'm enjoying this more than Crazy Taxi (which was also a good port). So even when it flips to paid, it's worth well over the buck.

    My case too... But after some restarts of the game i retrieve the lost progress... For now i m trying to not open the game in multiple devices because i think is an iCloud sync problem.

    This is a great port! I was worried about the controls, but the are really good. Forgot I was playing it on a touch device:) The frame-rate is so smooth, not like the slide-show I got on my 100MHz Pentium when I played the original:D

    The game is awesome. I really, really hope they do a port of Carmegeddon 2; I spent so many hours in my youth playing it so it would terrific to go through it again.

    We need to start a campaign to get the Rush games ported over. Lives will be complete.

    controls

    It's not about how well it controls, the idea is not to come in first place, it's simply to make it to the finish. It does control exatcly like the old game. You can do some upgrades to the car though.

    My progress gets deleted after each launch of the game. So I have to start from scratch every time.

    I came here to ask this. I don't see a save option but it doesn't appear to be auto saving either.

    For those of you that never played the PC version and aren't happy with the controls, you might want to try switching to analog.

    Even though the default controls are about the same as they were on the PC so I have no complaints, the analog actually works pretty well with a sensitivity slider also part of the settings. It took me some adjustment to use the slider to steer, but it definately is more responsive. Might even stick with them a while myself to see if I fare better with them.

    I lost my save data too. I went into the icloud settings and turned documents and data on, then my save file came back.

    Strange. No save issues here, but is kind of weird when it comes to Game Center. It takes a bit too long to actually log into GC so I'm usually prompted as to whether I want to play as a Guest or as the GC id I last used. If I wait for the GC login, then that prompt goes away.

    I wonder if the GC login is tied directly to the game save and is not using the save if you are a "guest"?

    WTH! I've been playing on and off all day and have finished the first five or six races, just load it up now and *poof* my save has vanished?

    Other than that tho I'm loving it, it's just how I remember it being from when I played it back in my school days :)
    Great stuff.
