    Nice game overall, much better from the C1 I used to play and with great timed missions too. I don't like the way damage is dealt though.

    It is a very good game, but it don't have the vastness of the original or the sequel, but still well worth buying.

    This must be one of the most underated games ever! True, when it first came out the framerate was a little poor on most people's hardware.

    First of all, I don't like games like NFS, because even a little mistake can be fatal. But in Carmageddon you can run every way you like! And even a serious mistake is not fatal, and a lost time in case of mistake can be compensated with your good futher driving! You can do everything! TDR2000 has better graphics then C2, mission more interesting, but usual races are not so First of all, I don't like games like NFS, because even a little mistake can be fatal.

TDR2000 has better graphics then C2, mission more interesting, but usual races are not so interesting than in C2. Police cars is not god add-on, I take not much pleasure trying to wreck non-wreckable police cars. Viewing distance is significally bigger, and it is a big plus! (setting "MaxYonFactor" more than 35 hangs up C2 when AI car is trying to recover) In most times phisycs are better. I didn't play over network, but I think C2 will be more interesting.… Expand

    Definitely worse than 1st and 2nd Carmageddon. Time limits, physics of car, missions - everything has got worse.

    This game could use better graphic.. but i believe it would slow it down to much and create a higher demand on better video cards.. by keeping it like this.. makes it more playable to more users!!

    Carmagedon is the best game ever made. It is the greatest and most fun of any game. And TDR2000 is the best of the series. Definitely a great buy!

    Best game playable on XP. There has never been so many objects hidden places and great graphics in any game with the exception of mabey Commanche 4. TDR make the highly overated nascar games seem total dull and numbing. All one can do whith them is run aroud cheesy loking track. TDR has things I am still discovering even after 1.5 years of play.

    This game sucked. What happened ?!?!? CARMA 2 was unbelievable. the damage blows me away. the graphics. the gameplay is smooth and exciting. TRD i really wanted to like, but the game just plain sucked. the cars are not realistic (I mean : A guy that spins inside a wheel what kinda crap is that) zombies are crappy. and u can't race properly.

    Comon, jesus...lol (did I just say that?).. while I can agree that its not a 10 due to some net problems, it certainly has never been anything CLOSE to a simulation. It haws stunning gfx and use of AA... the framerates are more than tolerable on my P3-667, 512 meg, GF2 mx400 system. I would like to know how to use the replay output device though.

    Not the best of the series, but still not the worst game of all time. If can get fun and addictive after a while, but you have to ignore some flaws it has.

    After the release of the game was buggy and poor optimization, but after a few patches to fix it and now in this game you can play normally, it is a stylish and dynamic.

    Después de un par de juegos excelentes aparece esta bazofia mal programada, aburrida, censurada, con pocos coches que escoger, IA inexistente, realmente una perdida de tiempo

    Switching people to zombies ruined all the fun and the game overall is so much worse than Carmageddon 2.

    Pure annoying crap. Enemy carse will be constantly hitting you and won't let you drive for a second. Pedestrians are awful and they don't react to cars and never get scared. Atrocious hitbox detection and nearly immortal pedestrians will make this a boring, chaotic mess. Carma 1 & 2 were great, but this is just pure trash, now we know why they stopped making games after this boring turd

    You know you've got problems when the top quote on the box tells you that Maxim gave the game five out of five stars. I mean, that should tell you something immediately, right?

    While the vehicular slaughtering remains satisfyingly gruesome in looks and sound, the graphics of the rest of the game have taken a step back -- Carmageddon 3 suffers from lousy frame rates and animation slowdowns.
