APB: GTA meets Fast and the Furious

Grand Theft Auto has set an unfortunate standard in gaming; take out your virtual aggressions on the streets of make believe cities, steal cars, beat people, etc.  There is a new contender to this style of gaming called APB, or "All Points Bulletin". 

This game looks a lot like GTA with a dash of Fast and the Furious, a pinch of 909 (area in Southern California) and an essence of your favorite MMORPG.  I like the fact that APB gives you a TON of customization options.  You can pick exactly how your character will look (clothes, facial hair, tattoos, etc.), as well as pimp out their rides (flames, custom paint, etc.).  Thus the douche bags you are used to seeing around your town will look (and act) more like themselves in APB.  Seriously, I see these douches people, sans weapons, roaming the streets of SoCal sporting wife beaters, tramp stamps, and raised trucks. 

Enjoy the trailer, and notice the designers, middle aged men with long outdated haircuts, giving their two cents.
