Why buy on GOG.COM?
DRM FREE. No activation or online connection required to play.
I played this game back when it was new and still play it every few years. It's arcadey, has neat physics, the cars are fun to drive (put it on the most realistic handling). The LAN play is actually fun (I haven't tried this with the GOG linux version). It does have rubber-banding with the AI racers but not as bad as Flatout 2.
Frankly, it's just a load of fun and the way the cars handle is great. Work your way to the Bone Cracker, upgrade it to the max, and just smash the **** out of the other racers! That's the prize
If somebody was to increase the poly count, add some extra layers of shaders, and expand the tracks, it would be a great new game.
This game is simply legendary, despite its continuation this one doesn't forgive. You have to drive perfectly as opponents won't slow down when you crash. Bit frustrating sometimes but so challenging! If you have enough racing - there are many cool stunts with absolutely the best addicting high jump, you can easily earn some money there and upgrade your car. Handling is bit strange but comes with interesting camera work that gives you unique feeling of speed, especially with nitro on. As a cherry on the cake we get set of awesome music tracks boosting gameplay feelings from the very first run. On a promo - absolutely must have!
The biggest plus is that it runs smooth on notebook with embeded Intel card (detected as 4600 or smth)
I've passed the Bronze by now (9/36 races)
- the asphalt tracks are easiest and most predictable. After some practice/upgrades 1st track is just 1000$ prize for 4 minutes racing.
- there is defenetely some catch-up - you won't lose too much crashing as team will slow down while you restart, and there would be always one car trying to keep close if you are leading to make your nervous enough
- car selection does matter. 1st car sucks, while selecting other one make me pass bronze with only few replays. so chose wise.
- once you pass bronze you have to buy new silver car as you upgraded bolid sucks. so you probably don't need all the upgrades but better keep the money. good news is that silver car is allowed to race a bronze race, making easy money
- bonus stunt events sucks to me, as it's not about the racing. but try it once to see if it make fun to you.
to sum up: somethere between Juiced and Colin Mcrae Rally. Must buy on Sale.
('Loosing is fun' style)
p.s. using 'Normal' handling + Auto.
I got this on the PC, and I loved it. Sadly, my new PC does not have a disc drive, so I bought it on GOG. I still love the game to this day, and hope that the series goes on.
I just love this racing game.
It may not be perfect, but it is perfect for having a little break, stress relief, just fun. The physics are quite nicely implemented. The races consist of a lot of crashing and boxing your way through the track and opponents. Cars will slowly degenerate and change their stability during each race and thats fun, too. Parts are flying of them and through the air, sometimes even the driver, if You are not carefully enough. Use your opponents as cushions, destroy the surrunding, find funny shortcuts through buildings and crates. Gain nitro whilst crashing and crushing. And so on ...
The racing isn't too hard. Even if you play it casually, You will advance slowly through your "career". But it is also not too easy. You will have to race each track several times, before winning. But sometimes You're just lucky, You box away your components or gain useful seconds on a shortcut. The game is fun, not punishing. There are also lots of tracks. 30 or 40 or something like that. And although there are only four different kinds of tracks (Wood/Race/Winter/Construction site), these have enough interesting and more and more challenging variants.
Also there are plenty of different cars and upgrades. It's fun to change the car from time to time.
There are some details, which could be better. Some obstacles are easily destroyed when crashing into them (and that even gets You some extra money ;) ), others are indestructible and crashing into them will cause your driver to fly ... . These are difficult to distinguish for a beginner. Also it would be nice, if cars would be completly destructible, so one is able to kill the oponents, but that would also make the game much harder, so maybe not such a good Idea? Ok, I don't really know, what kind of bad things I should say about this game. It's fun, it's great.
