oh damn, i remember this. wild graphix! someone stole this from me, along with a bmx game.
I think this game is very Technically Impressive, especially for the GBA, but very unfortunately it's let down by the hardware and the format. The quality of the 3D rendering is very good for the hardware it's on, but unfortunately that's a statement that can't be removed from it's conditional. The game doesn't handle hills great, and sometimes curves appear out of nowhere or the bounds aren't obviously apparent - Urban Thruway 3 is the worst of this.
The other problem is that the game's format is repetitive. There's a slow difficulty curve over the game's 10 levels, but you have to beat all 10 levels (in sets of 3, so 30 tracks) on the games "Easy" mode to unlock Medium, then beat all 10 levels in Medium to unlock Hard. Which would be okay, if the tracks weren't exactly the same each time. There's nothing new other than a couple of better cars you unlock for your garage, which come at a very slow pace.
With all that said falling off a cliff in Great Heights and hearing the SFX halt into complete silence was absolutely hilarious. 10/10 unintentional comedy
