Playing this is like watching a bad action movie. You know it’s not going to be good, it just happens to be what you’re in the mood for.

Loses half a star because it corrupted my save and made me sit through three hours worth of nonsense again.

Just good enough to make you want to play an actual Fallout game.

A definite improvement over the first entry, for two main reasons:

1) You can jump now, allowing you to avoid the spider hazards that plagued the first game.

2) Loot boxes have been replaced by a shop that costs very little to refresh, making unlocking cars fairly easy.

Perhaps I’ve played too many bad kart racing games recently, because I didn’t think this one was as bad as its reputation would lead you to believe.

Would I recommend it? Of course not. However, it looks like a masterpiece in comparison to the likes of Garfield Kart and Race with Ryan.

You’re telling me that we used to get 5 bananas per banana bunch? Shrinkflation has really taken its toll on the franchise.

I miss the days of car brands pumping out shovelware. The games aren’t particularly good but they contain a nice mixture of jank and charm.

I can confidently say that this is the strangest racing game I’ve ever played. You start off by selecting one of four characters, and they hail from locations such as Nerdsville, Nebraska and Geek City, Tennessee. The game then cuts to a scene of you overlooking a gathering of a group called “The Kings” which I suppose is the coolest group around because they race classic Chryslers. Regardless, your dweeb-self really wants to join the kings.

The 20-race campaign sees you earning cash (for upgrading your vehicle or buying items such as suede jackets) and cool points (to progress from being a nerd to at the end, a jive cat). There are also top-down mini-games that require you to collect teddy bears to woo the hordes of women that you’re attracting with your Chrysler.

The racing itself isn’t great, but the pure hilarity of every other aspect of the game made it a worthwhile experience. In short, I think I need to go buy a classic Chrysler and become a real-life jive cat.

The Alamo never would’ve fallen if I was at the helm of its defenses.

Very much a poor man’s Split/Second, which isn’t the worst thing ever. I would just prefer an actual sequel at some point.

Let’s take Rocket League’s basketball mode and remove every enjoyable aspect of it.

I wasn’t sold on this game until it let me summon zombies and use a frying pan with lightsaber sound effects.

Not the worst Christopher Columbus simulator on the market.

Essentially a more accessible and toned-down version of Smite. My only complaint is that Bacchus is not on the roster, his inclusion would immediately make this a five-star game.
