Destruction Derby 2
Review by Duel007
"The game lacked multi player mode, and a solid single player mode........"
This game was pretty good, but not all that it could have been. This game had a BIG lack of choice. Like only being able to choice between 3 cars. What kind of **** is that!?
Graphics: 10/10
The graphics were great. One of the definite plus' of this game. The tracks were done nicely too. Whether it is the racing tracks, or the arena tracks to battle, the graphics were great. The car's had a tine bit of detail, but it was really just your average race car.
Control: 7/10
The control's could have been better. The car's had VERY little handling and that is part of the reason this was brought down so much. The control's weren't very basic either. Square is to drive. Usually to drive it is X. It wasn't a problem at all, but it was kind of different.
Music: 5/10
The music, was ok. Not that bad, but not that good either.
Gameplay: 8/10
The gameplay was fun at first, but can get boring after a while. You can race in single player mode, or battle with 30 other cars trying to total them. The basic idea is to ram into them and make it so they can't even move any more. Then, you move in for the kill. Just total them. The game lacks choice. You get to choose from 3 cars. WHOOP DEE DO!!!!! Three cars. That's a lot of choice. The bad thing is, the fast car's have NO handling or turning. The game had like four battle arena's. Not a lot of choice. It had some good race tracks though. Also it looks cool when you go up a ramp, you will be able to do some MAD stuff. The game also lacked a multi player mode. Which really brought it down too.
Replayability
This game will keep you playing for about a week. Not a lot longer. You will then throw this game into it's case and probably never play it much again.
Rent or Buy
I strongly suggest you rent this game before buying it. If your a big fan of Destruction Derby, you may want to buy it. But try it out before buying it.
Overall: 7/10
Overall, this game gets a 7. Lack of choice brought it down. Also, the game didn't have a lot of fun in it. This game could have had A LOT more than it did. It's a shame.
