1. Awesome soundtrack. OK,... I was blown away to hear real songs playing in the background by Primus, Duran Duran, Alice in Chains, etc. Great touch.
2. Well-designed tracks. This game has a LOT of tracks. They are designed so that you really have to race several times and learn the tracks in order to win. There is a lot of variation, with arena racing and country racing.
3. Even though you never like to crash, the crashes are great to watch. The physics are very nice here.
4. Strong AI. When you win a race on the harder "career" levels, you BARELY win. It is not one of those games where you are lapping the second place opponent. This, together with the excellent track design, is what earns this game 4 stars.
5... I personally thought the 2-player mode was great fun and gave the whole feel of the game, especially if you use side-by-side split screen instead of top/bottom.
Here is what...[I did not like] about this game, earning it 4 stars instead of 5:
1. Not enough variation in the AI... All the opponents drive the same, so tend to be bunched up on the course. So when you...[mess] up, you go from 1st to last place rapidly, and it is very difficult to pass the pack again without crashing.
2. The physics are sometimes too realistic. There are little boxes all over the sides of the track, and if you hit one it is a guaranteed crash. You can't drive on a very large grade without crashing. OK maybe this isn't a true fault but I found it annoying.
3. The "trick" techniques really bite. They are difficult to pull off and not very exciting to watch...
4. No replay mode. After a race it shows you the last lap in replay, which is nice if you pulled your sick maneuver on the last lap, butotherwise...[is useless].
I WILL buy this game after renting for 5 days, which is a rare occurence for me.
