Fun Smash'em up!
Date of Review: Mar 21, 2007
I must start by saying I am terrible at racing games. I can never keep the car on the track. However in this game THERE IS NO TRACK! woo hoo! OK :-) so I personally like driving as a "trophy truck" as they call them in the Baja race. I love running over motorcyclists and other cars. This is a great "I had a rough day at work" relaxation game if you ask me, and so much more legal than running over your boss in the parking lot on your way home :-) Not being a "racing game aficionado" I can't really tell you how realistic the game play is. I would say it's less realistic than F1 but MUCH more realistic than Ridge Racer. I kind of liked the "motion sensing" controller option for this game it allowed me to use the controller like a steering wheel, but I went back to button mashing pretty quick. I also noticed that damaged scenery, tire tracks, etc. stay from lap to lap which is a nice bit of realism. When you wreck as a motorcycle driver the body flying has some nice rag doll type dynamics to it too.
