Racing Revolution
This game is amazing.
Now that I got that out of the way, let me explain why. On the surface, it's simple: stop at a stoplight and perform in one of five events to gain new cars and better, yet still creased, licenses. But underneath is a daunting level of complexity and the scale of the game is really very frightening. There are Superjumps, which are special ramps that activate beautiful cinematic camera angles and can result in some daunting crashes, which I will talk about more later, Billboards to smash, and shortcuts that can give you an edge in winning a race or staying alive in the 'get to the finish without eating it' event Marked Man.
Then there are the crashes. I found myself boosting into walls just to see the bone crunching crashes that look incredible. The car models look amazing and they seemed to have put in a new level of car damage models that looks utterly stunning as the hood folds in on itself, the bumpers fall off, and other lunacy occurs.
This is no gran turismo. It is an arcade racing game at it['s core. It's sort of like chess with really good looking cars, easy to pick up and play, but extremely difficult to master, It has it's problems and might not be everyone's cup of tea, but if you're into a game that seems like it belongs next to a Mortal Kombat machine in an arcade, this could be your game.
