For the price, Big Bumpin is worth every dime.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
GAMEPLAY: In Big Bumpin, you pick or create your character of choice, and throw them in your favorite bumper car for some high octane bumpin' action. The single player game is a series of 5 tournaments or your choice of a basic single event. Tournaments consist of a series of different mini games, each with a varying degree of challenge and strategy. What it really boils down to is just pure crazyness and fun. Whether your fighting for control over a disc, scoring goals on your opponents, or struggling to survive in a last man standing match, things are always fun. The controls are simple: Use the analog stick to move and press the A button to boost. They are basic, yet masterful. For a bargain game that comes with a value meal at such a cheap price, the gameplay in Big Bumpin' is great.

GRAPHICS: Keeping in mind that this is a budget title, the graphics are actually very good. There is a variety of arenas, and they are flashy enough to get the job done. Lights, explosions, and abundant amounts of color greatly compliment the games carnivell-like theme.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SOUND: The sound of bumper cars is hard to describe. The sound effects are pretty good, and the majority of the soundtrack fits the hectic action perfectly. Overall, things sound the way they should.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
VALUE: The single player game can be beaten in about an hour, but since the game is essentially a series of mini games, replay value is definitely apparent. The overall presentation for a bargain fast food meal bonus game is fantastic. And oh yes, I almost forgot: Xbox Live Multiplayer.... if have 3 friends, bumper cars has never been so fun.

TILT: Look at it this way, the price is great, and your getting the opportunity to down a delicious meal at the same time you pick up this budget masterpiece. Even if you somehow hate this game, you can't hate eating. No one hates eating, eating is great.
