    Even though there are flaws in the multiplayer offering, the single player mode gives more than enough bang for your buck. Pixel-perfect control, fast action, and plenty of events to take part in mean that Mantis Burn Racing isn’t far away from arcade racing perfection.

    Outside of a sub-par soundtrack, Mantis Burn Racing is the finest overhead racer in years. It combines skillful racing with a level of excitement that is usually absent from the sub-genre.

    It is a solid game in terms of controls, gfx, sounds. But for us it felt lifeless, to steril.

It a well made game but it is just too boring. Needs some kind of interesting gimmick or hook to make me want to do this vanilla racing. There is just no power-ups or any sense of speed.

    But this game could be Micro Machines if it was targeted as a online game with single player. But it ain't, to get games in online lobbies is rare with hardly anyone online. Making this game mainly a single player game and most single player games are boring rinse and repeat affairs, just like this one. Average game that could of been so different.    … Full Review »
