    Give this game a 10! I'm not much of a racer, but this game blows. I love it! I can't seem to stop playing! It's fun to know that women dominate this game and have an advantage of winning than the men do!! talk about flexibility! I love all of the Electrica tracks! ^_~

    KICK ASS! The more you play the hard the game gets I mean it. The AI trys to win and it does not give up like other games. The only set back the game is too short. Also if you blank you are likly to hit a wall or some thing. But it is worth buying.

    Better than "ExtremeG 3." Fast, futuristic racer with amazing graphics, a nice trick system that earns you turbo points, and tight control. This should hold you over until "Wipeout Fusion" arrives next year.

    Awesome graphics sound and gameplay the only problem is that it's a little too hard.

    This game was totally bad-ass, no doubt about it. Music, Graphics, Stylish Stunts, this game has a crap load of awesome stuff. i'd be looking forward to seeing they make a second one.

    The game is very addictive. Its a notch above XG3 because you actually move as opposed to strafing in XG3. The only thing the game is missing is a sequel. Oh and of course gotta love the girls...

    My boyfriend and I love to compete i this game. We have found that out-doing each other's record times in ech track is both fun and competitive. We just want to know, what's next???

    I love this game and I don't enjoy many racing games. I enjoy the fact that it is futuristic and I love the fact that the women seem to be more dominate in the game.

    Basically is weird, weird dudes with racing suits was a new idea for the racing genre. The pace is regular, and it gets a little repetitive, because there isn't any adrenaline or addiction to it. Santa Monica Studio really could get a new chance to introduce us, a new sequel or a remake. Kinetica has potential to be a new way of racing set with cool ideas.

  1. A cool game that's been suspended from greatness due to its less-than-stellar track design, lame weapons and stunts that are often not as cool as they should be.
  2. While the core of the game is pretty bland, the trick system is excellent.
  3. The unique racing experience offered here stands out from the pack of futuristic titles with high-speed action and gorgeous graphics.
