Adrenalin Racing - 1.2

I search under games for the highest rated to find the coolest stuff out there. I find this. Try it... Uh.. its worse than a first generation Nintendo game! What the hell .. has to be a joke. Dont download and waste your time.

The game is actually quite good for what you are getting. Yes, the physics could use some work. But this is one of the few driving games I've tried that is driveable with a keyboard. The lift-off oversteer is actually pretty accurate (if a bit over-active). Yeah, the models could be better, as could the scenery. But I had no problems changing the resolution...I played it @ 1280x960 with no problems. I haven't tried 1.1 yet, but I think I ran into a few of the bugs it fixes, so it should be a bit better.

Music: Bad. Graphics: Bad. Shareware: Bad. Other problems: FPS stall a lot and freeze. Screen resolution: 640x480?!! This game needs A LOT more work.

The graphics suck. Example being: Around the 3rd race of the first (demo) circuit, there's a railing next to the road. The road is tilted slightly downwards. Well, it seems that this "railing" is only a single face with a railing texture. Problem is, the railing texture is only made to be level, so it looks like there are 3 railings stacked on top of each other.

The gameplay also sucks. It says I'm going 120 miles an hour, and it looks to me like I'm doing 40 at best. When you turn, it turns about three degrees per second, and when you hit a wall, you fishtail so that it actually helps on turns, since turning is so bad on all cars. And the "reset" button? It stops your car from flipping. Sort of. It can also jump you ahead by about ten meters.

Guess what else sucks? The AI. I can crash all I want and I'll still win.

Oh, and did I mention the physics? If you hit a tiny little bump, your car flips over. And over. And over. It never stops. It also goes way too slow to be actual gravity. More like moon gravity. And when you run into a bush, the car stops. A BUSH for cryin' out loud. Also, around the 3rd race, there's this little paper-doll dog and if you hit it the car flips over. And this dog just stands there. If you drive onto the water, you can drive over the water.

In addition to all that, it's buggy. Want to set new keys? Sure, there's a key setting dialog, but they're set back to the default as soon as you leave it. It's just an illusion. There are also a million graphical quirks.

So what's my point? This game lacks polish, physics, graphics, sound, and everything else needed to make a game. So, Mr. Author, if your brain is so creative, why can't you create something better than this piece of crap? I give it 2 days before it shows up on PerversionTracker.

Ok, not expensive. But weird graphics and totally unreal physics. For instance, miss a turn and your car will rollover during 2 minutes. Too bad it looks like a cheap game, nice music ambiance though.
