I see Test Drive 4 is in the bargain bin for $14.95.  Is it worth it?  I'm
disappointed that NFS3 won't have any linear tracks, and this game does.

No, TD4 is not worth that.  When you see it drop to about $7 I would consider
it.  Accolade will not even say that they are not going to send out the
downloadable cars like they promised to do.  If I would have been unable to
return this product I would have threatened Accolade with a breach of
contract.  They publicized the fact they would have downloadable cars.  They
never appeared.  I was waiting for the cars to appear before I re-purchased
the game.

        Doesn't Orbital do half the soundtrack?  In that case, it might
be a slightly expensive maxi-single but I wouldn't recommend playing it.
In brief: Bad control, pinball physics, unimaginative tracks, and ugly
improperly-proportioned car models.

TD4 was fun for a while, but it's bugs are too bad to forgive it.
