I'm gonna say that if you were content playing it on PS4, your expectations probably were far below that of the average player. I completely understand why people with high expectations were disappointed with the game.

The difficulty is that traffic lights are rather unpredictable. Some actually require you to speed up to the limit if you want to keep up with the wave. And others won't light up until you pass a sensor so coasting and regulating spe
