Background:
"Race for the Checkered Flag behind the wheel of a turbo-powered
speedway racer in real-time, 3D-action." You can race on 10
different tracks for practice (with no other cars), a single race
(with up to 5 cars), and a Tournament (race a season on the 10
tracks). You can change the weather, transmission, car color, airfoil,
tires, and sometimes number of other racers.
Game Play: The 3D graphics are suitable
enough and I thought the control is good and simple. One button is the
acceleration, another is the brake, and the direction pad is for
steering and shifting gears. You can navigate the curves by either
using the brakes, laying off the accelerator, or downshifting. When
your car crashes it does not explode a la Pole Position but quickly
sets itself upright. One criticism I have is the lack of choices in
type of car. You can only race a 3D turbo racer. That is it! However,
overall this is a solid racing game and gives the Jaguar a decent
racing title. A good addition if you like racing titles.
Pros: control, fun to play
Cons: lack of variation in car type |
