"Is this really a racing game?"

Matchs: 7/10

Even though there are a bunch of games there was only one like I liked with was destruction derby. Anyways the ones that was in there. Were regular racing matches which you just race of course. There are a few mini game matches too like my favorite destruction derby where you drive around a crash into another cars until the person inside the car flies out the window but there was a lot of junk inside this match which would make you wreck your car and make you lose faster, high jump where you drive down a strip unto a jump and you press the NOS button and you fly out the window through a bar, long jump same as the high jump except you fly straight instead of up, darts its just like a dart game so im not going to go over it, and bowling.

Controls: 6/10

The controls are not too hard but not too easy too learn if you go over 80 you start to lose control of the vehicle so that's why I always choose manual and never used automatic. But if you used manual then you would start out late at the start of the match. If you crashed in this game you lost a lot of time and if you crashed into something hard then you lost a lot more time because you would fly out the window, and there is a lot of stuff on the track to make you fly out the window. And you could upgrade the vehicle to change the controls of the car like upgrade the traction and engine and stuff like that.

Difficulty: 6/10

It was a little difficult because of the controls and the cars would always stay on you and push you into something to make you fly out the window. And if you pit someone you would make the car go front of you which would slow you down, way down like to 5 mph.

Audio: 7/10

I didn't like the songs of this game. They was rock with a girl making this weird noise which was really annoying too me. Other songs were 80's style rock. The cars to me sounded different when you upgraded it.

Graphics: 9/10

The graphics are good I really like the window flying out but I didn't like how much times you flew out the window. When you crashed your car gets all crunched up so the wheels would look like they are popped out. The tracks were good too but it was a little dull they should of had more stuff on it like hills and stuff since it was destruction game and not a real racing game what im saying that if it was a real racing game then you could go over 100 mph and not at max 70 mph.

Rent it or Buy it?

I would just rent it but if you really like this game after renting it go buy it. Only reason I would buy it if I played the destruction derby only.

Pros: flying out the window
Online
The mini games especially the destruction derby!!
