If you're a race fan, buy this game.
This Game has everything a race fan could ask for and more. By more I mean Monster Trucks, but I guess there are race fans that are in to that. On the other hand, I’m a really big F1 racing fan, & with a section devoted to Open Wheel Racing, I’m as happy as clam. “I think that’s a good thing.” With all the different series such as Formula 1000, 3000, Ford, & Go-Cart, you can lose quite a few hours. “& that’s just one section.”
There’s also a Story based career based section, if you’re into that kind of thing. “I know I am.” So anyway, you can work your way up the ranks in different racing series, to be crowned champion of the world I guess. I’m not sure yet, I’m only about 45% of the way thru.
There is also an online feature that is really fun. You can play people from all over the world. I was a little worried at first; my connection is not the greatest. Battlefield 2 tends to lag every now and then, but I haven’t really had any problems with TRD3 lagging. You can browse on-going races, or create your own. The races a really intense, & there are a lot of good drivers out there. It is a little frustrating that if someone crashes into, you will probably not come in first place. No restart race feature here, but you’ll get over it, because when you start smokin people in races, it’s all worth it.
There are a few problems with the game menus. For example, when you start a series, in professional mode, there is no save & exit feature. Your only option here is Ctrl_Alt_Del, no worries though. If you completed a session such as practice, or qualifying, your progress will be saved. The last problem is hardly worth mentioning, it’s the fact that when joining a session online, it’s probably already underway. The only real problem with is, you have may have to wait for the racers to complete there race. & you will have to fight to come out on top in the series points. Other then that, all I can say is “I am really addicted to this game.”
