The best experience youll have in this game is the multiplayer mode, which I played for literally hours on end.
-
Solid racing action but the interface needs some work.
-
Gameplay, although it is rooted in traditional racing gameplay, is very much more challenging and can prove to draw even mild racing fans into its action.
-
If you've ever wondered what it would be like to drive a balsa wood car full of helium, here's your chance. Slight bumps will send you airborne.

Nintendo PowerTight control and realistic physics. [Dec 2002, p.216]
-
It's a little schizo, trying to tread the line between arcade racer and sim, but it's much more of an arcade style experience on the whole.
-
You dont get a real sense of speed and this makes the handling very problematic.
-
With a focus on being more accessible and arcadey it's pretty easy to jump into for beginners; however, for rally experts it may proof too basic to be worth any interest.
-
While any petrol-heads who are starved of a racer would do well to get this as its not a bad game by any means everybody else would be wise to sit on their hands and wait until something a bit more special comes along. "Colin McRae 3" will be here in March.
-
Floaty physics and a sore lack of variety in track design are the standout issues that prevent this game from even garnering a rental recommendation.
-
Visually, the game has a rather muddy and faded look -- it just isn't up to snuff. Although car damage can affect driving, none of it shows up in the visuals.
