One of my favourite games of all time
Gameplay - 9
Gameplay is plentiful and can be entertaining, Single player campaigns are challenging, sometimes frustrating but track designs and racing on them can be really thrilling and satisfying. Not being able to collide into cars does make Race feel more like Time Attack but it shouldnt make too much of a difference. The track editor is hard to get use to at first but it wont be long before its quick, easy and satisfying and you can bring them online. Okay physics may be ridiculous, but who cares?! NADEO didnt say it was a serious realistic game and while car models are limited you can download plenty on the internet ;)
Graphics - 8
On the highest detail, TrackMania Sunrise is a beautiful looking game, not one of the best looking games but you cant say it is at all ugly. Their does seem to be a bug sometimes which makes things smudgy and blurred but this doesnt happen often and can be resolved.
Sound - 7
Sound is the lowest point of TMS i admit, Car sounds and sound affects are basic, very few music tracks but no sound issues and no real problems at all in general.
Value - 10
This game can last you a long long time! As well as all the single player challenges and track editing there is also the easy to use online play to try out many incredible tracks made from people around the world and compete against other players around the world. On top of that you can download billions of cars, tracks, skins and other mods on various websites easily.
Overall - 9.1
In my opinion, this is a fantastic game and i think the creators deserve much credit for this. If you like arcadey, fast paced, challenging car racing in various enviroments and with track creating. Then this is the game for you.
