    Nitro is good at providing plenty of simple, no-frills fun. That also means it’s not exactly an incredibly deep experience, but it doesn’t need to be. It’s fun, silly, and full of upgradeable cars.

    Of course, the odds of accessing Wi-Fi at some point are pretty high, especially if you download games on a regular basis. That being the case, Nitro is a fun racer that'll hopefully continue to give throughout the year, so long as Z2Live pumps out free updates. Considering the best entries in this crowded genre, you shouldn't worry about more content.

    A good racing game held back by its business model.

    Nitro is another free to play racing game that should satisfy those who want a more arcade-style experience, but it lacks the addictive hook necessary to make it a classic.

    Nitro looks and sounds impressive, but under the bonnet you’ll find a racer which is hampered by a poor free-to-play system and saddled with strangely unexciting on-road action.

    Nitro (Free, Universal) looks promising, but just isn’t firing on all cylinders leaving you with a relatively bland experience that misses the essence of what racing is all about. There just isn’t much action going on, and every single race blends together into a monotonous drive. Nitro is one to skip as it just doesn’t deliver its namesake.
