funny translation but HOLY CRAP THE GRIND WAS PAINFUL. had to cheese the final race by just trailin behind the AI and zipping in at the last second to win which was funny. This game tries to be an ambitious console-type game and an arcade game at the same time, and in having to do both kinda gives it the flaws of both. It has the difficulty of an arcade game that wants your money but the time commitment of a console game in that theres like a simulation RPG mode. The fact that credits buy you TIME instead of lives kinda shows the weirdness of this one. If they had just made it a console game, got rid of the timer, and nerfed the difficulty to make it more fair, you'd have a pretty interesting bike racing game, but they tried to have both cakes and eat em and we all know how that kinda thing turns out.
