Yes indeed. It will wipe the egg off the face of those that shelled out 40 bucks for the PSO adapter.
Let's hope they can fix the other complaints like.... it feels slow/sluggish, why can't you jump anymore, no power slide boost, two riders feels more like a gimick then innovative, all the racers are basically the same, too much emphasis on battling at the expense of racing, feels like a dumbed down version of an already simple game, ect.... don't shoot me, just mentioning things I've read in various impressions of the game.
Get out, and take your Sacagawea dollars with you! I'll give you 'til three. One!

If there was any egg on my face, it was the delicious cadburry cream egg that I was able to savor every time I had to clean my face. Plus it was best buy credit so who cares?
The powerslide is still in the game. I guess those people just couldn't figure out how to do it. I don't see how 2 players is a gimic if each one can use 6 of their own special items and it adds strategy by having one character hold an item while driving. It may not be a HUGE innovation, but it's still one at least. I think the whole "simplified" comment has to do with jumping. As for everything else, we'll just have to see. Again, I doubt EAD would release such an important game with all these little problems.
