Tracks made with the PC track editor can be downloaded and used. 2 players can go online from the same console. Nice track design with interactive obstacles. Lots of licensed US and JP vehicles. Offroad feeling is not as intense as e.g. Buggy Heat. Controls nicely with a wheel, but manual transmission is not configurable for Mad Catz MC2. | ||

Don't let the first impression fool you, this game is surprisingly good. Very good setting, story and level design, perfectly balanced gameplay and difficulty. Don't miss to play Jessifer's mission once you finished with Jack, as it clarifies the story. The first person view scanning scope is one real innovation. Control is not bad, but takes some getting used to. Even the dialogue and voice acting gets better with time. Does not support the arcade stick. Frequent load times can get annoying.

Has nice maracas support: you can use left maraca only (move & shake), I prefer left maraca for moving, right for shaking; menus: shake left = B button, shake right = A button. Hint: Use X or Y button in replays to toggle moves display. Unplayable in 50 Hz since sound and graphics are out of sync. 25 MB of bonus material on the CD-Rom part (gallery and japanese html pages).

One of the very few games where I must admit that it is really bad. Ugly, buggy, choppy framerate, name it. That's not to say there's no fun to be had. Gameplay has some good aspects actually. It's just so totally flawed technically. Hints: Always head for the direction marked red on the compass. You can pick up enemies' weapons when you are close enough. | |
