A terribly boring racing game. Go buy Mariokart instead.

Introduction: At first this game boasts you can play with eight players by hooking up two Nintendo 64's to each other. While that may be true there is nothing else even vaguely good about this game.

Graphics 7/10
One of the stronger points in the game the graphics are about average and are not too bad. Cars look pretty good and the courses are alright. Most courses look quite good but are not set out very well and are hard to race on. As I said the cars look good except for a few which are not very good at all.

Sound 4/10
Sound not very good at all. Turning of cars and all other sounds the cars make are not very good and the music on the courses are very plain and not very interesting to listen to. Music on the title screen and menu are okay but not really that good either.

Controls 3/10
The controls in this game leave a lot to be desired. The handling on the cars are very poor and extremely difficult to handle. This is especially true for novices of the game. All other controls are okay but as with every other section they are not all that good and can be very fustrating to learn and use.

Replay Value 5/10
Like most multiplayer and car racing games you can go back as many times as you like and race over the courses again and again and again. But in this game you may not even want to. Apart from race through the courses again there is not much to do once you have done them all before.

Challenge 8/10
Mostly challenging games are good. In the case of this game the challenge is very frustrating mostly because of the controls. Quite a challenging game but in a frustrating way. It can take quite a while to beat all the courses but at the same time be really annoying.

Rent or Buy?
Personally I would say don't of either. But if you still would like to have a go at it just rent it do not buy it. It is one of those games were everybody thinks differently about it but It is a better idea to rent it first.

Overall 3.7/10
Although the totals may not average this this is the score I personally think the game deserves. Graphics are okay, sound is quite boring, not much replay value and a bit too challenging.
