Motor Mayhem isnt a bad game, but its hampered by a combination of small, annoying slights that keep it from being the game it could be.
-
It just seems that even with the unique ideas and pretty graphics, they never quite managed to pull it all together, and its just not all that much fun.
-
MM surprised me with its slick graphical engine, solid game play, and involving depth and appeal. One thing that makes MM stand out is the fact its more of a futuristic sport, than a plain old kill and destroy storyline.
-
Even if you completely wipe clean your memory of "Twisted Metal: Black" and just look at MM all by itself, you will still see a fairly shallow game that lacks any sort of discernable charm. The game's characters are lifeless and are completely devoid of personality.
-
Gripping sound effects and a mind-blowing arsenal will keep you coming back for more...but only for a short while. You'll tire relatively quickly, and realize that "Twisted Metal: Black" is a clear winner.
-
This aint no "Twisted Metal: Black." If Motor Mayhem had come out last October we might have recommended it; as it is, there's no real competition.
-
The flaccid sounds are joined by dreadful physicsits like driving a balloon. The fighting game-style combo system is unwieldy, and a sense of speed would have been a good idea, too.
