  • Summary: Whether you're grinding through mud pits in Louisiana, crunching up cliffs in California, or smashing up trees to make the ride a little bumpier for the guy behind you, keep your eyes on the prize: the cash you earn on the circuit goes to buy new trucks and build up your ultimate Monster machine. Tear through 30 Monster events, including brutal stadium circuits, merciless exhibition arenas, and the hairiest off-road circuits your tires have ever seen. Soup up your truck with speed, traction, and other power-ups to give your opponents a run for their money. Smoke the competition as you blaze through well-known U.S. locations, such as Alcatraz Island, Central Park, Louisiana swamps, Cape Canaveral, and the Arizona desert. Master your tricks in Training mode as you taste all of the thrills, spills, twists, and rolls of Monster Truck racing. Then show them what you?re made of in Single Race or Championship mode. Get behind the wheel of over 20unstoppable Monster trucks, including Grave Digger, Hulk, Spiderman, Wolverine, El Toro Loco, and Bulldozer. [Ubi Soft]… Expand

    The vehicle animations are good, but the overall repetitive nature of the game makes this a very average title.

    The rigs get hung up on everything from pylons to small picket fences, tip easily, and generally bounce all over the damn place like superballs. [Feb 2004, p.103]

    A decent racing game if you're into monster trucks and stadium races that are just over a minute long... Barely worth the effort. [Dec 2003, p.82]

    Not worth buying new, maybe used. The camera angles suck! You get hung up behind things as well as the truck itself. Too much dirt and crap kicking up even when you are the only truck out there. You should at least be able to see where your going. Lastly, it almost seems like your driving on ice all the time. Slipping and sliding all over the place. The snow and ice covered tracks are ridiculous. … Expand
