Test Drive: Eve of Destruction blends the best elements of racing and demolition and is packed with 25 different events, including Demo Derby, where the last car standing wins; Gauntlet, where the player climbs behind the wheel of a hearse and tries to finish a set number of laps while the rest of the field attempts to stop them; Trailer Race, a new brand of racing event, where players compete while towing various types of trailers and must finish the race with something resembling a trailer still attached. Additionally, Test Drive: Eve of Destruction offers players a selection of more than 30 custom vehicles, a dynamic soundtrack and a split-screen multiplayer mode for up to four players.

This was THE multiplayer game for me and my brother growing up (outside of Mario Golf and Monkey Ball). It might have the best ost of any video game and I'm only like half kidding.
O Test Drive de demolition derby. Um dos melhores jogos do estilo, que foi lançado numa epoca onde faltavam jogos de demoliton derby com qualidade. Eve of Destruction entrega uma ótima variedade de corrida, eventos, carros, e claro, destruição no seu longo modo carreira, que poderia ser um pouco menor. Uma pena essa franquia ser tão desconhecida.

This is one of the best racing games on the PS2 easily, it pales in comparison to something more modern like Wreckfest, but for the time it was incredible. Great destruction, cars are a handful to steer, and the career mode is deep enough to keep you engaged. The soundtrack is lacking, not that it's bad or anything, there just isn't enough of it. Highly recommend if you enjoy FlatOut or Wreckfest.

An easy recommendation if you're looking for something like FlatOut or Burnout from the era, an absolute delight from start to finish. Really captures the feel of general America, especially in the last 90's/early 00's. A must-play if racing is your favorite genre.
An absolute gem of a racer from the same people who brought you NASCAR: Dirt to Daytona, it stands as one of the very best banger racing games ever made, alongside Destruction Derby and Wreckfest.
