Corvette (Xbox)

This is the only game that lets you race virtually every Corvette made in street and track settings. Over 80 incredibly rendered production Corvette models from '53 to '03---plus awesome show cars. Upgrade your 'Vette's engine and suspension---feel the effect of real car physics. Race on various tracks and an obstacle filled Route 66 from Chicago to LA. The choice is yours...6 characters, 15 official production colors, multiple environments. Variable camera angles---and era-specific HUDs---enhance your race experience. Heritage mode allows you to "test drive" any stock production 'Vette. [TDK Mediactive]

Critic Reviews

62 IGN
What Corvette has working against it, though, are solid, if boring aesthetics, and iffy physics.
58 TeamXbox
Corvette does feature over 80 cars, but being they react so similar (regardless of the terrain) there is very little incentive to play entirely through the entire game. The default computer AI is mindless, but adjusting the difficulty level is a must for real racers.
50 Cheat Code Central
Just an average racer. It leans more to the arcade side as most of the vehicles are easy to control and upgrades are handled automatically. The five modes add some depth but they are just variations on a theme that's not so captivating to begin with.
43 GameSpot
Falls flat in just about every way a Corvette or racing fan enthusiast could hope it would succeed...it's difficult to recommend it to even the most devout Corvette enthusiasts.
