driving

A buddy and I bought this game together. We had high expectation for this game. We both took our games home and played it on our separate PS2 machines. We both hated it.

The good thing about the game is the graphic. Everything is sureal, animated and just fun to look at. That being said, the controls STINK. I love racing games and I was expecting a loose and fun game out of this title. Instead, the controls are horrible to play with. You can't drift properly... the game is trying to act like REAL car environment... which does not make sense under the "animated" design.

When I try to slide, slow down, or drift... I tend to spin out of control. You either have to control the car PERFECTLY or else you just spin out and slam against the wall all the time. If you bump or get bumped by a car ... you better watch out cause you might just spin out because of the contact.

I seriously attempted to LIKE this game, but there was nothing I could have done to make it more enjoyable for me to play this game. I just could not grasp the idea of what the designers were attempting to get out of this game. They try to make it similiar to GT3, but turns out to be horrible experience and nothing like GT3.

I give this game 2 stars because I liked the name of the title and I like the graphics display. I expected much more out of this game and was sorely dissappointed. I will trade this game in for another game soon.... this game is NOT recommended unless you just have too much money in your pocket. Don't even bother renting it, because you'll take the entire rental period just to try to learn how to control the car. Go with V-Rally3, NFSU, or the classic GT3 if you enjoy racing games on PS2.

I am sorry for those who want a good review but i have to call jeremy an idiot because he doesn't know what he's talking about. I haven't played this game but I know what it's all about and I just want to get this out..."JEREMY WHO EVER YOU ARE YOU ARE AN IDIOT DO YOU NOT KNOW THAT THIS GAME IS SUPPOSED TO LOOK LIKE IT IS IN A COMIC BOOK, CAPCOM MOSTLY MAKES GAMES LIKE THIS ONE(VIEWTIFUL JOE) DUH SO I DON'T WANT TO HEAR YOU DIS THIS GAME IF YOU DON'T EVEN UNDERSTAND WHAT IT IS ALL ABOUT. MORON..YOU MUST NOT KNOW A LOT ABOUT VIDEO GAMES..IF YOU THINK GT3 IS SO GREAT GO GET A PS2 LIKE EVERYONE ELSE, YOU ARE A SHAME TO GAMECUBE OWNERS EVERYWHERE. Thank you everyone I have said everything I wanted. Yeah you heard me Jeremy you idiot.

i've read a lot of reviews on this game. i've played need for speed 2 on GCN. There isn't anything like GT3 for the GCN. this game is fast, has nice customization of the cars, decent tracks, good AI if you bump up the difficulty. the interface gets a bit into the weeds when you're customizing but once you get into the gaming it's great.

i would beel better about the game if it was a bit less than $40. if you can get it for $20 go for it. GCN doesn't have too many racing games that are snappy and quick. this is a fast paced one with a different twist. but don't expect it to be GT3.
