Hotsuma's Reviews: 4x4: EVOlution

[~~~~Closed~~~~]

I honestly can't think of of a witty way of saying it, this game is bad. the graphics are so-so. even by early PS2 racing game standards. the gameplay is slow. and the computers are just plain cheap. turning on a dime and accelerating to top speed the instant the race starts. where as you are stuck with controls that are...bad...you can barely accelerate or turn thanks to unresponsive controls. winning, while possible requires nothing more than track memorization. tuning is another bad thing, tuning your SUV consists of dumbed down Gran Turismo tuning, and the ability put add-ons on your car...like a bike rack...or a bumper...both tuning your car, and putting things on it have absolutely no effect on your car.the sound? the sound consists of generic butt rock, generic engine whines, splashes, and the occasionaal crunch. speaking of crunches, apparently the devolopers thought that running into a tree at 100 mph would do no damage to either the car, or the tree...go figure...the entire game looks like an attempt to cash in on Gran Turismo's racing sim success. Gran Turismo is good, 4x4: EVOlution is bad. there aren't any interesting aspects of this game to even warrent a rental.
