How do you come this close to making a cute, aesthetically fatnastic tribute to Virtua Racing only to fuck it up entirely with obnoxious, terrible voice acting punctuating every moment of gameplay, some wonky physics and drifting, and AI that rubber bands at the drop of a hat.
Virtua Racinng from 1993 is also legitimately more thrilling, fast, has better track design and is less obnoxious. Who the fuck thought giving a retro throwback racer more constant chatter than an ace combat final mission? (that repeats itself astonishingly quickly) was a good idea?
It has a saving grace in it's flat shaded, glorious aesthetic which really does feel like a great modernisation of Virtua Racing. Which makes it only worse when the Model 1 - style graphics make way for in-game advertisments for Curve Digital's other games. Yes, that is actually a thing, and no, now I have no intention of playing Snake Pass, what the fuck?
Fuck this. Just play the Virtua Racing port on Switch.
