  1. It's a shame that the developers didn't polish "Rally Challenge 2000" a bit before they sent it out the door, because it has a really cool racing engine at its core.

    It's not a miserable game by any stretch -- the bad fogging can be worked around, the sad audio can be drowned out without missing anything, and the lacking tracks are at least true to the sport.
  3. It's not going to keep you up nights either; it's simply an amalgam of traits copied from more successful franchises, with a few new innovations that don't really add much to the gameplay.
  4. Bringing gamers a sense of nostalgia may be alright in space shooters and RPGs, but in a racing game, especially in the visuals department, it just isn’t right.

    Although the actual car models are quite nice, the N64's infamous fog--which makes for about 10 feet of visibility, even in sunny conditions--and the blurry, washed-out textures undermine the game's few good points.
  6. The hobo outside could do a better job than whomever they picked to do the voice acting.

    It loses any notion of fun after 10 minutes.

    An unashamed rip-off of Sega Rally, it's not as much fun to play but has more cars and tracks on offer. The championship mode doesn't workAn unashamed rip-off of Sega Rally, it's not as much fun to play but has more cars and tracks on offer. The championship mode doesn't work half as well because the slightest damage or wear and tear on your car makes it unmanagably sluggish but it's worth it for the Arcade mode. Expand

    This game is an absolute trash fest for gaming. I do not approve for anything in this terrible game and I hope you all agree.
