And of course, it looks so prettttty.
-
A more complete gameplay model with refined controls could have made this racing title of the launch, excluding "SSX" of course.
-
Daily RadarNice graphics and physics and a number of secondary features make for a satisfying ride, but it's ultimately lacking in the innovative thrills we've come to expect from Sony's highly hyped machine.
-
Games RadarWithout wishing to come across as overly pedantic, there's little in Wild Wild Racing that could be genuinely be termed wild.
-
Does a decent job of giving gamers some off-road action, but the graphics aren't up to PS2 standards, and the racing isn't as deep as it could be.
-
The gameplay is nothing special, but not terrible either. The graphics and audio however are well below what we should expect on this system.
-
While the graphics and the sound are on point, the game as a whole is weak.
-
Lacks any real punch and stands as the quintessential middle-of-the-road off-roading game.
-
Underneath its dated graphics and insipid BGM/sound effects there is a very fun and challenging racing game in need for something special to justify its existence on PS2.
-
The main thing holding this title back from greatness, or even mediocrity, is its tasteless gameplay.
-
There's really nothing 'wild wild' about it. The game starts out bland and moves on to hoist unoriginal game goals that overshadow a clever yet underdeveloped Challenge mode.
-
With better racing games, like "Ridge Racer V," "Midnight Club," "Smuggler's Run" and "Moto GP," there isn't much need for an average off-road racer.
-
It's all the worst traits of arcade racers thrown together, exaggerated to the point of grotesqueness, and then slapped into a game that's at best a visual mixed bag.
