    An enjoyable game with lots to do and unlock that is sure to keep you occupied until "Gran Turismo 4" arrives.

    It’s slightly above average in almost every aspect and matches that with a low low price.

    Fairly easy controls that actually respond differently between the different corvette models AND when upgrades are done on the cars. An easy to use setup that racing fans will feel very familiar with.

    It's a shame that the developer couldn't also license some fun gameplay to go along with the Corvette name. [June 2004, p.129]

    This game does a lot of justice to the cars and performance differences between different model years are readily apparent. Game play is very rewarding as you increase your driving skill.… Expand

    Best described as NFS:Porsche Unleased for the PS2, but with Corvettes (and no damage). Contrary to reviews, I found the cars DO handle differently from each other. It's graphics are not the best, but the tough competition is what keeps me playing. Sometimes gameplay is more important than looks. It does not look bad. Corvettes do NOT handle like the exotic cars in most games that turn on a dime and should not here either. They can be heavy in comparison as Gran Turismo depicted so well. (Hey, if you want super realism-try to drive those boats in Ford Racing 2 like the Mach 1!) Totally worth the $8.99 I spent. It would be worth $19.99. It's a regular fun driving game with every model year represented.… Expand

    If you're not a COrvette owner, or have a Corvette year that is featured in the top racing games, stop reading, the game is worthless. But even as a 1993 Corvette owner/enthusiast, I couldn't reccommend this game. The game is mediocre at best, and very buggy with no patches so far. The car models are all very basic and poorly shaded, and on my system with a GeForce4, all chrome objects on the car were all white or not rendered at all. Very ugly. Gameplay was boring. COntrol scheme had to be re-entered every time I played it. The only reason to buy it was having all the Corvettes, but even this isn't enough to overcome the mediocrity and bugginess. I returned it after 3 days. Don't bother, even for the $19 it costs on the PC.....… Expand
