The total package. It's not some pared-down version of game that appeared on a next-generation console... There's tons of content and diversity in the addictive gameplay.
-
In a market where so many games seem based on the same set of ideas, Gun Battler Joe is a real breath of fresh air. Highly recommended.

Nintendo PowerMixing driving challenges with RPG depth, Car Battler Joe is a one-of-a-kind adventure. [Feb 2003, p.158]

In a time when some games seem to be out for making a quick buck ("Army Men," I'm looking in your direction), Car Battler Joe is like a breath of fresh air.
-
There's so much variety and personality, however, that the odds are good that you'll find your money's worth in some aspect or another.
-
While undeniably odd, there's just something about it that pulls you in and doesn't let go until you've expended hours of your precious time on the thing.
-
Give me a better variety of arena maps with danger zones and distinctive features more like Super Mario Kart instead of the basic sprawls we've got here and I'm sold.
-
With a lengthier adventure and a deeper combat sequence, Car Battler Joe could've had a shot at the Hall o' Fame.

Pocket GamesA charming, original game. [Winter 2002, p.42]

Electronic Gaming MonthlyWhat saves CBJ from mediocrity is the fact that you can customize the bejeezus out of your vehicle, adding an extra layer of depth to an otherwise not-so-deep game. [Sept 2002, p.162]

netjakIt's difficult to find a copy, but just as well. This game was forgotten by many, but it deserves all of it.
