Race Across America

Saw Harley Davidson - Race Across America listed today, cheap. Made by Wizard works, but honestly can't remember a single posting for it in here. Any views? Colin

Based on the CNET Gamecenter review at http://www.gamecenter.com/Reviews/Item/0,6,0-3338,00.html it appears to be priced that way for a reason.

At least it made a few people smile when reading some of the reviews, like the one of cdmag's: "Harley Davidson: Race Across America - First player to Sturgis gets to uninstall the game!" "...you can get a better sim experience playing Atari's Pole Position. The original one." "...the game is about as challenging as a two-piece puzzle and almost as much fun." "The bikes in this game have all the fuel economy of a refinery fire... Your bike runs out of gas approximately every sixty seconds." "The game does have a multiplayer mode, but do you really want your friends to know that you purchased this game?" "It's Like: Going to the dentist, only not as much fun." --- Antti Markus Peteri 15 miles. your dim light shines from so far away - Soul Asylum, Promises Broken

The game engine is as old and obsolete as the engine in a real Harley. Tim >Saw Harley Davidson - Race Across America listed today, cheap. Made by >Wizard works, but honestly can't remember a single posting for it in here. >Any views? >Colin

Don't you just HAVE to wonder: What IDIOT would allow something so stupid to be produced??!!! Same with Extreme Paintbrawl I understand.... I can't imagine any programmer allowing something so piss-poor to be published! Gunner

Aye, it's amazing. Tho its prolly the publisher who says that we can have a few bucks with this one. They did release it as a budget title all along, so I guess they had at least some idea about the quality of the product. I'm more amazed that Harley let them couple their venerable brand with a bitload of shit like this. I suppose their PR department knows squat about computer games. Seems they just had a crash course. --- Antti Markus Peteri 15 miles. your dim light shines from so far away - Soul Asylum, Promises Broken
