Er, I can drive like a granny today in my car. It is smashing into stuff and opening fire on people in my way I can't do in real life.

"Volvo Cars, a unit of the Ford Motor, is also giving the dealers copies of the game cartridges that they can give to prospective and current customers."

Come on people, for the last 10 years or so, most video game consoles have scrapped the "cartridges" for cd's and now dvd's. Lets try to keep up!
