If you are craving for a racing game that offers speed and reality in one go then you are craving for the wrong combo, but if you want racing bundled with unreal experience and lots of destruction then you are about to have a party as Split/Second has been officially announced today by Disney Interactive Studios. If you thought by destruction I meant hitting opponents and destroying their cars then you probably got it all wrong as S/S takes it to another level. Game is set in a city sitting on explosives that can be triggered by drivers to stop their opponents from winning.

As suggested by the name, a player needs to be very accurate with triggering explosives in order to trap his opponents or in creating a new route. Craig Relyea, Senior Vice President of global marketing at DIS says:
Split/Second elevates action racing to a new level by enabling players to strategically take out their opponents by dynamically altering the course in real time, Split/Second further showcases Black Rock Studio's ability to innovate and deliver a compelling experience that has wide appeal beyond the traditional racing genre.
Game will be released in the year 2010 for PS3, Xbox 360 and PC. Dedicated site for the game will soon be up at this address. For now it redirects to a page dedicated to the DIS at Disney.com.
