cars and bikes

This is really a great game for racing fans that want some originality. You can get so many great power ups, and the graphics on your car and your rivals car are VERY detaild.
Your tires can get shredded your windows break, your hood can catch fire, any thing that can happen, will happen.
The overall graphics are not that great, more like N64 style.
The game is very short, but holds great replay value in head to head mode.
Better than any taxi game EVER, plus in the third level, you get to race a giant gorilla(king kong?) up a building!
Great for the price, racing fans should pick this up.
(It's also a great party game).

At first sight you may notice that this game plays much like crazy taxi, but after you play it you realize there is much more to this game. The objective is still to get taxi patrons where they are going in the shortest amount of time possible, but there are many add ons that you can get to get you to your destination even quicker. You can get monster truck tires, turbo jets and buzz saws just to name a few. I highly recommend this game because of it's high level of fun.

Smashing Drive is built upon the idea of racing through these convoluted, jumbled city streets and smashing just about everything in your way. This, in itself, is fun, but the things that bog the game down are numerous. I can excuse the bad graphics, even the annoying sound and music, but the fact that the game is WAY too short and limits how much fun you can have is inexcusable. What I mean is, every race is set against a timer, as well as an opponent, so you are forced to beat the levels under a lot of pressure. There's no time to just sit back and have a good time. The 1-player mode can be beat in an hour. The 2-player mode will last you an hour longer before you get sick of this narrow-minded game.
