    I don't care how many "positive" reviews are out there for this **** game. Big Rigs: Over The Road Racing is easily considered by many to be the worst game EVER. Period. Just about everything in this game seems broken and unfinished. You drive under the bridge. You can go over mountains. Hell, you can go backwards at 10 million MPH and reverse time and space itself.

And you get this **** "You're Winner" text whenever you finish the race. In the original version, the AI was broken and didn't even move one **** inch. However, in the new update, they did made it so that the AI could actually race, but they won't even cross the finish line. There is no sound, however, someone is being credited for sound! What the actual crap? The graphics are an eye sore and the only thing I liked about this game was the exit button in the main menu! What a horrible game this is!… Expand

    This game is really unique. It does everything what a normal racing game doesn't do. Such as being able to drive through buildings, being able to go out of bounds easily, not being able to lose and a really weird reverse acceleration. This game truly shows how savage the developers are!

    I like Big Rigs. I'm dead serious. The glitches were funny, controls were solid, sound effects were great and the graphics were awesome. It's a game where everyone can be a winner.

    it is one of the best animes of all time. everything about this anime plays like you are playing an interactive version of cory in the house. all the 0s and 1s are from people who didn't experience it right.

    Why is everyone hating on this game?? I mean, a speedo that goes outside of the instrument cluster??? Wow! An opponent that doesn't even move?? Incredible!!! No hit detection? Amazing! The ability to go an infinite speed backwards?? Unbelievable!!! A score of 8% on Metacritic? Absurd! And finally, "You're Winner!" when you cross the finish line?Why is everyone hating on this game??

    With an overabundance of high-octane sports car games, a semi-trailer racer sounds like a tantalizing breath of fresh air; we can easily imagine a thrilling high-stakes semi-themed Crazy Taxi-style game smuggling cargo and outrunning the cops being a blast to play.

Unfortunately, this one underwent an extremely rushed development that left little more than a tech demo in its wake. Graphics never got beyond placeholder art, physics are primitive, and the promised CB element is nonexistent. A shame; perhaps now with advanced game engines like UE and Unity available the staff can regroup and truly realise their vision. We've seen worse, but as it is, there's nothing to see here.… Expand

    This has to be the best game i every played. it made me feel like a superhero, the way i could fly and phase throught walls, I EVEN WENT THROUGH A TREE! what makes this game even 100000 times better is that my late uncle gave it too me as a gift. his dying words were "I hate you mat" im pretty sure he was being sarcastic. anyway, this game is soooooo good i would definately give this to my mom.

    This is the worst game ever released. It seems like something a therapist would make for his suicidal patients, so they can be "Winners" everytime. But he released the game way too early to save one of his patients who played the game and killed himself before even seeing the "You're Winner". The end result is a simulation of a what a first prototype of a game should look like. This is the worst game ever released.

Even if you were curious like me about the worlds worst game, still don't waste $5 on this game. Instead watch G4's X-play segment intitled "Games you should never buy" which shows everything the game has to offer, nothing. Oh and the review has sound, something this game lacks as well.… Expand

    This game killed my soul. Thats it. Don't ever play it, don't acknowledge it, don't even look at it. It will make you want to kill it, but like the hellspawn it is, it will stick around in your mind.

    This is probably the best game ever. There's so much into this one, it's unbelievable.

Besides the eye-hand coordination, the also need some imagination. Think further than the usual gravity and collision. This game teaches that things are only real when you think they are real.

    way ahead of its time, big rigs revolutionized what racing is all about. its is so mesmerizing that even the AI is unable to begin the race because its in awe of the visual backgrounds presented in this game. Please buy this game and hope stellar stone releases a sequel to this amazing off road rampage!

    This game is a total failure on all fronts. However, I believe it should get a 1. After all, someone spent the time (probably in the area of 5 minutes) to make it.

    This game's unique approach to the racing genre and wholly open ended gameplay makes for hours of extreme delight. The budget price only sweetens the deal.

    Imagine a game that would make "Smokey and the Bandit" look like Gilbert and Sullivan. I know it's difficult to imagine but Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing is so pathetic it makes a sandpaper-and-vinegar enema sound positively delightful. Not that I would know.
