  • Summary: Why don't you try driving up sheer vertical cliffs, trekking it across uneven ground at high speeds, navigating through water and dropping down into deep crevices, whilst all the time trying to maintain control of your 4WD and keeping your eye on the time? Whether you're just a Sunday driver, or you fancy your chances as a full-on driving master in the Championship, either way you'll find 4x4 challenge equally as exciting. [Virgin Interactive] Expand

  1. The game plays very well, I love the concept, the options are extensive, set up consoles are easy to use, the actual driving is quite realistic, the vehicle graphics are well above the average, and the replay value is very high.
  2. For those who like the unique challenge of timed racing and the strategies that off-road rallies require, Screamer 4X4 is a must have.
  3. One of the best off-roading simulation games available on the market today.
  4. Call me a mullet-wearing redneck, but I prefer my off-road action a little more exciting. [May 2002, p.77]

    The game is extremely realistic, and incorporates the finest in offroad vehicles...Unlike your typical offroad games, this one actually brings realistic situations into play, and isn't all about speed. Ignorant people may see this as boring, but to all of us hard-core wheelers, its a great escape while our real 4x4s are in the shop! Expand

    Good game, different to all other racing games, but there is not enough water, or mud, or exciting things like that, i wish someone develop the screamer 4x4 2, and include more action to the game, and more recent vehicles.....Good game... Expand
