this game is SO fun in multiplayer, even if you don't know what you're doing. banger!!!!!!!!

Stands with Crazy Taxi and Kirby Air Ride in the Ridiculous 3D Arcade Racer Canon. Lane-based racing is a great idea that Forza should steal. Trainza.

Thomas the Tank Engine went Off the Rails in later life

It's kind of shit but I appreciate the commitment to it's concept no matter how annoying it is to deal with. Soundtrack is surprisingly good.
One of the strange cases of a game only being released in the UK outside of Japan, this is a game from my childhood that I had a physical copy of. My taste in games might be better today if I was given Ridge Racer instead.

This game probably gets an extra half star just for the gimmick of a train based racing game.
That gimmick is fun for about 10 minutes, with races finishing in stations and the commentator's bizarre quips.
After that though, it's just frustrating and ugly and has nothing to offer as a video game.
