World Rally Fever: Born on the Road

What it does is done well

World Rally Fever is part of a group of racers that may seem a bit out-dated now. It's the Outrun and Power Drift formula of scaling 2D sprites to give the impression of 3D. Due to the early technology, these games are generally very simplistic, and have have much more basic psychics and such compared to what we're used to. Heck, even when this game came out, we had seen things like SEGA Rally Championship which was technically miles ahead of this game. So why am I giving it 5 stars? Simply because FROM this sub-genre of racing games, this is one of the best. If you look at it as what it IS, rather than what it could be, it's a damn fun arcade racer, that's easy to pick up and hard to master. There's also a nice weapons system, which adds a lot to the game (these aren't really common in these kind of racers). My only complaint is that the camera automatically turns when a corner is coming up, causing your car to turn a bit as well. This is confusing at first, since it takes a while to figure out how much you should turn around each corner, or if you even need to turn yourself at all. You still do have to steer around the majority of the corners, so the challenge is still there, but it's confusing at first. So when it comes down to it, what World Rally Fever does is done well. Know what you're getting into when you download this games, and chances are you'll enjoy it.
