    No matter how you look at it, this game is crap...I shudder at the thought that people might spend time even reading about this game.

    It seemed like Midway wanted EVERYONE, no matter how bad they are, to be in the race. This might appeal to those who aren’t really good at this game, but it just takes away any skill needed to be a good racer and almost leaves it to blind and random luck.

    Not only a horrible example of game making, but terribly insulting to just about anybody who’s even familiar with the original versions on the 16 bit systems.

    With Real Pool 2’s timed shots, choppy graphics, obtuse camera control and bland technology upgrades the game feels like Kinda Real But Not Really Pool.

    This game is putrid.

    It's hard to control, impossible on the eyes, and kind of like getting your nose ring ripped out! This is, simply put, the worst fighter of all time. It's a new low on every aspect of the game.

    And as if uninspired gameplay wasn’t enough, the game is chock full of the dandiest bugs this side of my bathtub. Let’s see - where to begin. Clipping, bad frame rates, stuck fighters, horrid camera movement, moves that just don’t work and sluggish controls.

    If you're looking for a no-frills, number-crunching, "old school" 4X strategy game, pull up a chair and relax. You're gonna be here for a while.
