Rating: - Very fun
This game is good and cool and more when you crash into the car and get on fire and in the last level is good because you go on the top of statue of libirty. Cool game
Rating: - Viewers who trash this game are complete idiots!
This game rules, I loved playing it! It was totally pimpin' and people who trash it have a serious mental problem! I mean come on this game rocks! If you like to crash into things, race through seriously awesome shortcuts, and run into King Kong, then you'll love it!
Rating: - Good concept, bad game
Smashing Drive is built upon the idea of racing through these convoluted, jumbled city streets and smashing just about everything in your way. This, in itself, is fun, but the things that bog the game down are numerous. I can excuse the bad graphics, even the annoying sound and music, but the fact that the game is WAY too short and limits how much fun you can have is inexcusable. What I mean is, every race is set against a timer, as well as an opponent, so you are forced to beat the levels under a lot of pressure. There's no time to just sit back and have a good time. The 1-player mode can be beat in an hour. The 2-player mode will last you an hour longer before you get sick of this narrow-minded game.
Rating: - why do so many people trash this game?
This is really a great game for racing fans that want some originality. You can get so many great power ups, and the graphics on your car and your rivals car are VERY detaild. Your tires can get shredded your windows break, your hood can catch fire, any thing that can happen, will happen. The overall graphics are not that great, more like N64 style. The game is very short, but holds great replay value in head to head mode. Better than any taxi game EVER, plus in the third level, you get to race a giant gorilla(king kong?) up a building! Great for the price, racing fans should pick this up. (It's also a great party game).
Rating: - My 3 Year Old Loves it
We got this game for our sons 3rd birthday thinking he could watch us play (he loves watching us play games) and thinking he could play once in awhile...well when we got it I sat down for an hour and finished the game...hubby has played a couple times and doesn't like it...but our son loves to sit down and play...he so close to finishing the game...so I have to say Great for 3 year olds...beyond boring for anyone older and the music is sooo annoying.
