The folks at Disney have released a new trailer that show off the Power Play element of
Split/Second, their new over the top racing game. In Split/Second, power plays are earned by racing and allow you to unlock elemental weapons on the other racers in the game, unlock short cuts, and even change the route of the race itself. It's an interesting concept but I do wonder how this impacts the balance of the race as you don't want it to become the blue shell of a game.
