    Ok, get this straight: Asphalt 3D is just (kind of) a port of Asphalt 5 for iOS onto a 3DS. The gameplay is Ok, but it doesn't feel like you are actually playing an official Asphalt game. It has everything a normal Asphalt game would have, but it has more. This might not be a problem, but you have to do three laps for each race. It has plenty of glitches and as a plus, the are cops tryingOk, get this straight: Asphalt 3D is just (kind of) a port of Asphalt 5 for iOS onto a 3DS.

Its not as epic as a normal Asphalt game would feel, and not as immersive either. The 3D effects are not so good. But sure, if you are a casual gamer who happens to have a 3DS and no iPhone or Android, get this game. If you have a mobile phone, get Asphalt 8.

    It's definitely not the best, but not the worst.    … Expand

    There is no excuse for how pathetic this game is. I don't actually own it. I played it on a friend's 3ds and HAD to review it. I got better value from the Iphone asphalt game. Asphalt 6 cost me 1 dollar in a special gameloft sale, and that game runs more smoothly, has better graphics...honestly....this is putrid.

    Very terrible mostly once you're driving through each street you can't even see most of the cars from somewhat far away. It is terrible, annoying and and always jolts the screen and flickers. I'd give it at least a 1.5/ 5 not even a 1.

    This is one of the worst 3DS Games I have played. You are better off getting Asphalt on your Phone as its better graphics and the 3ds version is just a lower graphics and glitchier version of the Phone version. If your looking for a racing game on the Nintendo 3DS just get Mario Kart 7 as its a way better game.

    Pese a que es un juego de celular no se le saco el mayor provecho para que este cumpliera con la N3Ds siendo un juego mas interesante en el celular mas que en la consola, por otro lado es un juego descuidado, es como si fuera un juego de poligonos de la N64 en nuestra generacion lo cual ya no llama la atencion a menos que su jugabilidad sea buena, pero hasta en eso el juego es pesimo

    In the end, Asphalt 3D falls below gamers' expected standards. As far as technical aspects go, the controls are fine, while the sound and graphics have some issues. The gameplay is solid enough, but there are very questionable mechanics in play that either do nothing to the experience or ruin a few good moments. Multiplayer is limited by closing off every other mode but one for play, but at least the game makes good use of the StreetPass feature. For racing fans who have become early adopters of the 3DS handheld, stick with Ridge Racer 3D for your racing fix. If you've already grown tired of that game, then try renting this one to see if you can overcome the flaws and squeeze some enjoyment from the title.

    Asphalt 3D is an extremely poor port that does not utilize any of the capabilities of the 3DS to any good extent.

    It's almost a relief that the game struggling to break free from these severe technical shortcomings is mundane. [May 2011, p.104]
