    Nail'd is a grungy off road racer built on a lightning fast 3D engine with an assortment of powerful ATV's & dirt-bikes that look like they could be straight from a post apocalyptic movie, that you can customise with new shock, brakes, gears and paintjob's etc. Graphically, there's plenty to applaud, with 14 courses that weave their way through mountains, deserts, even molten lava andNail'd is a grungy off road racer built on a lightning fast 3D engine with an assortment of powerful ATV's & dirt-bikes that look like they could be straight from a post apocalyptic movie, that you can customise with new shock, brakes, gears and paintjob's etc. Graphically, there's plenty to applaud, with 14 courses that weave their way through mountains, deserts, even molten lava and offer an impressive range of racing conditions including off-road events, stunt races and time trials in both single and multiplayer modes. The courses also make up for their relatively short length by using the third dimension far more creatively than most. Jumping off ramps and plummeting 100 metres to the level below feels more like being on a rollercoaster than a conventional racetrack. The emphasis in Nail'd is most definitely on an arcade style of racing, with speed coming a close second. Be they quad bikes or motocross that youÃ¢â… Expand

    Flawless GFX and original/well designed maps. Everything about this game is supercharged: 30 hours of gameplay and it's still surfing that new game buzz.

    The female rider also has a fantastic ass.

    Super fast and super crazy, but a little too arcade in execution. Nail'd at times almost feels like you're on rails with turning being a sort of quick-time event, but then eventually interrupted by an awkward crash. The upgrades to your bike also don't feel like they make a noticeable difference.

    decent visuals, lots of speed, lots of air, not much else. This game is completely lacking any real driving sensations, the screen is like looking through a fish eye lens, stunts are underwhelming, crashing happens uncontrollably, and unavoidably. Half way decent game for a while, if you are drunk hanging out with friends or something like that, but definitely not worth the 40 dollar pricedecent visuals, lots of speed, lots of air, not much else.

Other race games out there that are much better. Older ATV games on the ps2 were a lot better than this. Plus this game lacks any open world stunt modes, which was always my favorite part of ATV games.… Expand

    8.2 - Had lots of fun moments playing this, and considering a cheap price on Steam, had a decent amount of content that included cool detailed tracks and good rock soundtracks.

    Had so much fun with this game. Loved the soundtrack, gameplay and the amazing maps... I just wish there were more of them. Just 14 maps and 103 races in the tournament mode? Wish they made at least 6 more maps. My other complaint is the difficulty... while for the most part, the game is challenging, at the end (especially the final tournament) it gets ridiculous.

Other AI drivers just keep crashing into you, destroying your progress, while they miraculously survive or teleport to the front... it's not fair. Other than that, this game is perfect. I recommend it to anyone who wants to play a fun arcade racing game with amazing soundtrack. Pickens approves!… Expand

    Don't take nail'd too seriously, there is no depth in it. Just some unsophisticated, adrenaline-charged fun. [Feb 2011, p.98]

    Listen to punk rock music, get the tunnel vision, jump, drift and hit your opponents! nail'd would be a perfect racing game, if there weren't the repeating tracks, the so called huge motor pool and the missing long-term motivation.

    Unfortunately Nail'd's core gameplay doesn't do quite enough to justify stripping back all of those extraneous details. It's a game that's begging for a little more refinement, visual polish and structural content; and without those in place it struggles to elevate itself above the frustrations inherent in its erratic engine and course design.
