FAST speeds, Full of Neon Lights, chill beats, and drifting, TONS of Drifting! The Story mode, is designed to introduce you with all the aspects of the game. Giving you tasks and challenges that are designed to help you master the strange controls. You steer with the left stick, and it only has a limited range of motion, it's not even enough control to make a turn. That's where the right stick comes in, this allows you to drift at will with the intensity of your sticks motion. Using the triggers to gas, and break. You can unlock more cars, up to 16, each with their own handling. Then you master each car with 20 tracks available. Once you've beaten the story mode, you can dive into a few more game modes, mostly single player. The game does include Split Screen and Multiplayer, but it's limited to One on One. More racers would have dramatically increased the fun, as the game tends to feel quite lonely. You can also unlock the highest difficulty, adding even more challenge to the game. The Twin-Stick Controls are so alien at first, but after a few races, the motions started to feel much more natural. If you love racing, love drifting more, and want a new kind of experience, Inertial Drift delivers, even without more drivers on the track!… Expand

    This game is a good take on the classic good old times of racing games. I would not say its the best racing game but the art style and soundtracks are good. The only major criticism I would give would be about the AI who are either very hard or to easy other than that if there is more cars added later on its a solid buy

    Inertial Drift is a satisfying arcade racer. Its scant multiplayer features mean that it’s best suited for those who like to play by themselves, but at least they’ll find a lot to get stuck into. And even better, its budget price means it won’t break the bank. If you like getting cars sideways and aren’t afraid of trying a new way of doing so, Inertial Drift is well worth investing in.

    If you like an arcade racer, if you like drifting, and especially if you like drifting in arcade racers, Inertial Drift on Xbox One is the game for you. Even if you usually like the more serious end of the racing spectrum, I defy anyone not to be gripped by the sheer exuberance of the game world and the outrageous handling that is on display.

    Inertial Drift is a fun arcade racer that brings a unique mechanic to drifting that works very well. While the tracks can be a little hard to read at times, after a few plays this becomes much less of an issue. There are plenty of cars to unlock and try, twenty tracks to learn and a decent story mode to help with learning the intricacies of the controls and modes. There are better overall arcade racers out there, but Inertial Drift definitely deserves a look if you fancy something a little different.
