Released in May 2010, ''Blur'' is the first racing game from Bizarre Creations since their takeover by [[Activision]] in 2007 (and their second overall, following ''[[Geometry Wars]] Retro Evolved 2''). The best way to describe it is to combine Bizarre's ''Project Gotham Racing'' franchise, with the real-life cars and locales, and [[X Meets Y|combine it]] with the [[Wacky Racing]] of ''[[Mario Kart]]''. [[Hilarity Ensues]] as up to 20 real-life cars at once are engaging in weapons-based combat.

* [[Spiteful AI]]: Averted: the AI cars will go after other AI cars as often as they go after you.
* [[Take That]]: The [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jPqRue51GZ8&feature=related ad campaign] mocks ''[[Mario Kart]]'' and other cutesy [[Mascot Racer|Mascot Racers]] with a Toad [[Expy]] named [[Incredibly Lame Pun|Brock Lee]] expressing a desire to "race like a big boy".
** [[Biting the Hand Humor]]: Because Activision is doing the new ''[[GoldenEye 007 (2010 video game)|GoldenEye]]'' exclusively for Nintendo, Reggie Fils-Aime [https://web.archive.org/web/20100824135627/http://www.nintendoeverything.com/43116/ now sees the commercial as this trope].
* [[Vehicular Combat]]
