Nothing special. Pure arcade action with some good old fashioned cheating AI.Not worth a 104MB download though. No chance. Wait for a magazine demo.

I am not a narrowminded "Must be a sim to be fun" person like some people here, but the sheer arcadiness of this title made it kinda boring for me. The graphics are ok, but nothing amazing, too much "sky info". ridiculous Nitro blasts, silly physics, etc. It'll be a bargain bin title before you know it, wait until then and get it for 5$ ~dx

Oh, OK. The short review said "sophisticated car handling coupled with a real physics engine ". You can never trust the adds. ; ) Lutrell "daxe" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:Ikqz6.8712$[email hidden]...
