how did this end up actually being good

probably my favorite platformer of all time (i dont really care for platformers though so interpret that how you will)

this game shouldve been goated with a car and track lineup like this but unfortunately it has the absolute worst tire model i've seen in any race sim ever

among the worst racing games i've ever played

aaaaand they immediately shit the bed

series got off to a great start with this one

2014

apparently i'm not supposed to like this one, but i havent played the originals yet so i get the benefit of judging this as it's own game, and on that metric it's pretty fun.

it's good but the atmosphere of the first game just isnt there with this one, i really wish i could get into it but i cant

you need to play this on max difficulty with the vita chambers disabled for the full effect, this isnt really supposed to be a horror game but it more effectively unnerved me than just about any actual horror game i've ever played

nascar heat if it focused entirely on dirt racing (the best part)

fine i guess, only played it once ever though

what if nu metal: the video game got a sequel that was slightly less edgy but a lot more fun to play
