    Este juego fue una curiosidad en mi vida, por alla en el año 2001 cuando me regalaron mi primera PS2, este juego fue parte de mi comienzo por la consola, es un simulador duro, olvídense de los need for speed y su temática arcade aca.

Duras horas y horas aprendiendo a conducir prácticamente cada vehiculo del juego, los graficos eran relativamente mediocre incluso para su época, pero lo compensa una buena plantilla de vehículos y unas detalladas pistas. música ok, sonido ok, es un juego regular pero lo que mas sorprende es que fue elaborado por Square, una empresa que en su tiempo fueron los dioses de los juegos RPG orientales. Fue una aventura nada mas, antes de la llegada de Gran turismo fue un decente juego de carreras luego paso al eterno olvido… Expand

    Plutôt moche, des bruits affreux et surtout une conduite complètement ratée : les bagnoles ne cessent de louvoyer comme des éléphants défoncés au crack. Jamais vu un truc pareil !

    Really bad graphics, would just about pass as a ps1 game. Handling is poor and just feels shoddy

    I have played so many better racing games that it makes this one look terrible. It's not the graphics that turn me off, but the handling of the cars and poor control. Squaresoft has failed in this game. It was brave of them to try something new but please stick with rpg's. If you never played any other racing game, you'd think this game is ok.

    First of all, this gameplay sucks big time. People can get blind because the blurred background. Fortunately "Gran Turismo 3" is saving the PS2. I have never played a game like this. If you ask me they have to balance the steering wheels. This is toooooo fakeee. When I steer right it has to go right not left. CAPICH

    It still feels more like work than entertainment, but persistent simulation fanatics will welcome the challenge.

    In all my gaming years, I have never felt the frustration that I felt when playing this game. On more than one occasion, I had to physically get up and leave the room or risk throwing the controller through my television screen.

    While the graphics are some of the best that I have seen in a racing title for a nex-gen system, this does not compensate for the fact that Driving Emotion Type-S has unrealistic physics that debilitate the overall enjoyment of the game.
