  1. The sound was not exactly great but they were all customizable right down to the amount noise the engines made.
  2. There's a distinct lack of personality or defined identity for what "Extreme Racing" attempts to achieve.
  3. Final gripe of the day is that you can come first or second in a race by simply holding down accelerate and bouncing off the walls. Need we say more about the skill level involved? No, didn’t think so.
  4. Not very thrilling. Despite the nice premise of your transforming vehicle mid-race, the game falls down in far too many respects.

    Its entertaining for a few minutes, but then you realize that you don't really have to do anything to win. But it seems like it'd be great for small children. Expand
