    Perhaps the career is a bit short and those bits that complement it don't quite hit the mark, but 80's Overdrive is an arcade racer that you'll thoroughly enjoy.

    Credit where it’s due, 80’s Overdrive tries its Rubik’s Cube-shaped heart out when it comes to immersing you in classic 1980 arcade racing and Outrun-styled action. It’s a fast and challenging slice of speed-demon action that’s all too brief and marred by a tedious economy, a paper-thin level editor, and one-note thrills which will start to tire you out before the game’s ending. The soundtrack and attention to presentational details do give 80’s great aesthetics, if only they were fused together with a better arcade racer than this.

    80's OVERDRIVE is a title that will undoubtedly please the old-timers with its extremely simple gameplay, and without any headache... A kind of love letter to that era. Despite a career mode that is a bit flawed and the participation fees for each race can be a problem, the music and the time trial still make you want to go back.
