<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>It's a really, really FAST arcade racer. You've got your typical selection of cars, and you race. Two things set it apart.
1) Quite possibly the most detailed, cringeworthy crashes I've ever seen in a racing game. Even after 8 hours of play, my friend and I are still wincing when we hit another car. There's even a "crash" mode where the object is to rack up as much damage as possible in one crash.
2) You're encouraged to do all the things you would otherwise avoid in a racing game. You get boost by doing four things - getting air, powersliding, nearly hitting (but not touching) other cars, and driving on the other side of the road. Naturally, the more you do at once, the faster your boost bar fills, and when it's full - ZOOOOOM.
There are no words to express the pure joy at powersliding through extremely heavy traffic at 160 miles an hour and going through unscathed.
Add to the fact that it's extremely smooth (in single player mode, it's a consistant 60 FPS), and you've got a hell of a game.
If you have access to a PS2, check this game out. It's too much fun for its own good. I only hope the rumors of it coming to the Cube are true.</div>

"For one thing to live, another thing must be killed. God, or whoever is responsible, deserves respect for creating such a system. It reveals that we cannot take all matters into our own hands. We need only to focus on doing our best--a simple, yet profound way to live, is it not?"
