    Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown's technical issues, both online and in performance terms, do a disservice to a novel, detailed game world.

    Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown is too little, too late. Instead of innovating, it instead takes ideas already popularised and doesn't even pull them off properly. Lacklustre visuals and a flat future aesthetic don't do anything to bolster its chances, not when better contemporaries are available.

    Expected like the messiah by a community of nostalgic gamers, Test Drive Unlimited: Solar Crown may well brake the hopes of those expecting an experience as captivating as that provided by its predecessors. While the game is not fundamentally bad, it struggles to convince because the competition has set the bar so high. Between the rough technique, the rather unremarkable atmosphere and the absence of elements that made up the DNA of the series, KT Racing's title suffers from an overall lack of polishing, perhaps due to insufficient development time or resources. It is a shame that the French studio chose to produce a game that was too (overly?) ambitious in terms of content, without really achieving its aims, instead of trying to innovate and surprise us. Those who are not put off by its shortcomings will nonetheless find a solid racing game with pleasing gameplay (at least on the road) and a rewarding, coherent progression system.
