By OlDurdy | Review Date:
Jet Moto is an early PS game in which you race futuristic jet ski-like things around crazy courses. Jet Moto is a very hard game, and tries very hard to get you to lose. This game is probably one of the hardest games on the PS. You have to know every track like the back of your hand to do well, because one small bump, fall, or a wrong turn can completely ruin the whole race for you. Although some of the tracks are cool, the computer just seems to be too-good at them for it to be some what enjoyable. The graphics on the game, for its time, are also not very good, everything appears very grainy and that just doesn't help out at all.
The actual racing is interesting. You get 4 "boosts" every time you start a new lap, which are very helpful for those areas with lots of bumps, so you can boost right over then. There is also a grapple system around tight corners. You press O and this beam of pink will grapple you, swinging you around the corner to keep your speed. Grappling is a hard thing to master, but if you get it down, you'll probably be able to pass many people on the turns.
Although the racing isn't half bad in this game, the computer is just too good. I wouldn't recommend this game to anybody, unless they're fans of the series.

    I cant lie but this game was ridiculously hard when it first came out. It still is a pretty tough game to date. But still, it was a pretty fun game and despite the difficulty of it, it made you want to keep playing it. I... Read Full Review
