Everything Louder Forever Special Competition! The game played very much like an arcade racer, which is a good thing in my book.

There was enough power sliding around corners to keep us arcade junkies happy. This game will never be confused with a realistic racing game that is modeled after true physics, so if you don't like arcade racing, you might as well look elsewhere. As an arcade racer, the game does not offer anything that has not been seen before, but that is not necessarily a bad thing. Then there are the tracks. I was really hoping to get more out of them. There were only a few shortcuts in the whole game, and for the most part the tracks were pretty unexciting.

Once you raced them a few times, you were ready to see something new. There were occasions that you would catch air over some of the hills or you would have to make a sharp turn to avoid running into a barricaded road, but for the most part they were nothing too exciting. The game says there are 16 tracks, but we all know what this means -- backward and mirrored tracks.

On the whole, I don't think there were quite enough original tracks. Most of the races are competitive. It is rare that you really blow out to a huge lead.

You always know that you are one mistake from last place. If you do make a mistake, it is possible to catch up if it happens early on in the race but if it is near the end, you have no chance of catching up whatsoever. I guess this was cool, because it did keep the competitive juices flowing. There are so many racing games where I end up lapping cars that it takes away some of the fun.

I never lapped anyone in this game. This game looks like an N64 racing game. Is this good? Well, the N64 has some pretty crappy racing games, but it also has some decent racers as well. First off, this game looks like it is running in the high-resolution mode, so it has a very glossy, arcade game look to it. Second, it says that it runs up to 60 FPS. While I guess this is true, if you get all 3 cars on the screen at one time, things can get pretty choppy. You can also race against 5 cars, but the frame rate drops to 30 FPS.

One of the reasons I think the game resembles an N64 game is because it has some pretty serious fogging in the distance, as well as heavy draw-in. N64 racing games suffer from both these things. This game definitely does not bring anything new to the party, but it is still not a bad game. I actually had fun playing it for a few days.

After playing for a while, I did start to tire of it. There was really no motivation to race the slower cars because the computer would always beat you. I would have liked to see a few more tracks to bump the replay value a little. Overall, I would say this game is a rental at best.

Ready, set, speed! Motorhead , a competitive racing game, has the primary goal of winning the TransInternet Speed League. Each division of the championship contains different tracks and opponents, with each one being more difficult than the one before.

A variety of cars are offered and are unlocked as the races are won. Each car has different speed and grip capabilities, thus different cars work better on some tracks than on others.

The objective on each track is to complete a required number of laps in the fastest time possible. When you finish a race, you will then have access to the next race regardless of how you placed. The challenge here is that you must place first or second for the whole circuit before further circuits and cars will be unlocked. I found this to be a pretty difficult game and never actually made it past the first two tracks, even with the difficulty level set to "easy.

The graphics in this game are great. They're clear, crisp and have good coloring. The tracks have a futuristic look to them. The lighting effects when passing through tunnels are done well. The video is very smooth with frame rates as high as 60fps. The graphics are definitely the best feature to this game. Reviewed On: PII , 6. The documentation is pretty complete. It offers information on installation, gameplay, driving techniques, and of course support information.

The game is simple enough to figure out by moving through the menus so the manual may never make it out of the jewel case in the first place. I found this to be a fun and frustrating game. The installation and controls in the game are easy to get the hang of, however I found that winning races and moving on is difficult even for "easy" mode.

There is also very little that is unique in this game which is why I give it a score of Browse games Game Portals.
