User Rating: 9 | TrackMania Nations Forever PC
I downloaded the free demo of this game about three weeks ago, and I could not stop playing it. between the immersive and original tracks and the fun gameplay this game would have and racing game enthusiast hooked. Even if you are not into racing games, this game is not a traditional racer, it has many challenges on unique tracks with jumps, twists, loops, and you can even drive upside down. Another factor is the difficulties. This game will go easy on rookies to racers by doing a good job progressing the level difficulty of the tracks. It will also provide an intense challege on later tracks for hardcore racing fans. The one complaint I have with Trackmania is the lack of damage modeling. It would really bring excitement to see your vehicle careen off a track at 200 mph into a wall and be devastated. Also, I am not big into in game advertising and this game renders billboards for cars all over tracks. Other than that, an all around great game I would recommend to anyone.
