    The text book definition of 'rental', 18 Wheeler is an expensive one-joke bomb when bought for $50 but an appealing and (dare I say it?) fun driving game for the couple of hours that it took me to beat the crap out of it.

I would say this game could be considered a hidden gem because it is very simple to play but hard to master. It looks much simpler than it actually is. Those who think this is a pure race game will be hugely disappointed and claim the game is slow and sucks, but to those who can grasp the concept of pulling a huge trailer and the slow steady momentum gain which builds as you travel then this game shifts into cult classic territory. The game is quite short and a great game just to beat in a couple hrs or less. Only 4 races and you beat the game and get a score. This is arcade mode which is essentially half of the entertainment the disc provides. The other half of the disc is score attack, going around 3 laps of one chosen track destroying bonus vehicles. Anyway, the key about this game is the uniqueness of pulling a lot of weight and how that speed and weight is the game and the race part comes after keeping check of controlling the weight you are managing. Its unique, well done and is easy pick up and play without a life's dedication to enjoy fully. People should not only own huge awesome next generation games but also some challenging classics made back in the day. Glad to own this smaller title it's refreshing to go back and enjoy old school goodness! It's an arcade style game, much like a comic is not a full length book and I can appreciate this title is short, but sweet.… Full Review »
