What started off as a cool Outrun-style arcade racer with gorgeous retro graphics incredibly quickly turned into a tedious and frustrating experience with cheap AI and lackluster track design. The game is designed to replay tracks over and over again until you basically perform a flawless race. There is no catching up to the leader if you bump into another car or the scenery (which is sometimes on the track!). The other racers go out of their way so that you bump into them and sometimes they'll just appear out of nowhere when you're coming out of a tight corner or on a downhill part of the track. And there's 19 opponents in every race.

And you HAVE to replay races to get better results because progress is otherwise locked. I unlocked several cars and upgrades and none of them improved my performance in any way. The cars all drive the same and the upgrades are worthless, from what I can tell. Also, you can run out of fuel! Your car just slows down and stops on the track. And that's it.

Horizon Chase Turbo is a prime example of why arcades sucked and why that cheap-ass model died a horrible, deserving death.

Horizon Chase Turbo delivers a great sense of speed and control. You're going fast enough that you could get off the rails at any moment, but you never do, as long as you learn the ropes around it, especially how to make curves. There are a few neat tricks to learn too, like making use of someone bumping you to get a boost.

The one thing though, is that a few cars seem too overpowered, especially Minuano and Dustdriver. I thought it might be the handling that's just too good of a stat, but it seems like specific cars are just better to control and usually will make races far easier than others, even if they aren't as fast as other cars.

Muy muy chulas las carreras, hay que estar pendiente en las carreras, no solo de mantenerte en la pista y evitar a la IA que es un poco cabrona, si no que además tienes que ir recogiendo gasolina para no quedarte parado (y se nota cuando no la coges).
Y si ya quieres hacerlo perfecto y obtener un trofeo y desbloquear cosas más rápido puedes recoger fichas e intentar quedar primero en todas las carreras, es fántastico, invita mucho a la rejugabilidad y no se hace para nada repetitivo.

Me encanta el sistema de progresión, usa unos puntos que se acumulan, no se gastan.
Y para pasar al siguiente país o conseguir el siguiente coche a veces tienes que mejorar algo tus marcas: coger chapitas y quedar el primero.

Los modelos son muy sencillos pero el arte se siente como un todo y no hay nada que descuadre, ni bugs o cosas raras, simple y maravilloso

I immediately remember the old arcade races on old consoles when I first started the game. A very pleasant shell hides the eternal monotonous gameplay of this game and what infuriates us most is the terribly developed car collision mechanics. But even with such a drawback, the game attracted the world tour for 6 hours and fans of multiplayer or local skating will enjoy this game more.

Сразу вспоминаются старые аркадные гонки на старых консолях при первом запуске игры. Очень приятная оболочка скрывает вечный однообразный геймплей этой игры и больше всего бесит, так это ужасно проработанная механика столкновения машин. Но даже имея такой недостаток, игра завлекла на мировом турне на 6 часов и любителям мультиплеерных или локальных катаний, зайдет эта игра больше.
