    THPS2 takes the original game, pulls it into the garage, and puts the whole supercharger extras package on, and peels out to you. The skateboarding experience punches up 2-3 notches to a game that is definitely worthy of your attention.

    Talk all you want about the mighty Playstation 2. I'm sorry, I can't hear you, I'm too busy whoopin some guy in Cleveland's rear end.
    • Metascore: 94
    • Critic Score 80
    Maybe I'm just being picky, but I found the camera positioning quite annoying at times, especially in the last section of the final boss.
    • Metascore: 93
    • Critic Score 90
    The only reason I can't give the game a perfect score is the 4 player limitation on online mode.
    • Metascore: 93
    • Critic Score 80
    Not as smooth as "Test Drive V-Rally," but the trade-off is that the game almost NEVER slows down.
    • Metascore: 93
    • Critic Score 90
    Online play, new moves, better AI, and street ball. No basketball game on any other system is going to touch NBA 2K1 this year.
    • Metascore: 92
    • Critic Score 100
    I can't get over the look of the game. Even the feel and sounds of the players grunting, and the racket hitting the ball is just so realistic.
    • Metascore: 90
    • Critic Score 90
    What you have here is simply the greatest RPG that has ever been created. And while I put "Skies of Arcadia" right up with it, it's still a big number 2.
    • Metascore: 89
    • Critic Score 90
    A simple, yet incredibly fun game.
    • Metascore: 88
    • Critic Score 90
    The game LOOKS like the UFC, FEELS like the UFC, PLAYS like the UFC.
    • Metascore: 87
    • Critic Score 90
    It is not only the best racing game on Dreamcast, it's the best racing game ever.
    • Metascore: 86
    • Critic Score 90
    This thing is a joy with a good wheel. Very responsive, and very realistic.
    • Metascore: 85
    • Critic Score 90
    This is probably the toughest racing game I have ever played. I have yet to finish 1st in a race yet, and I have logged serious hourage into it...If you are a true racing fan, there is no excuse for not owning this game.
    • Metascore: 84
    • Critic Score 90
    One of the better driving/sims on the market, and could even give the heralded "GT2000" a run for it's money.
    • Metascore: 84
    • Critic Score 90
    The new "wing" feature allows you to fly through the streets of San Francisco with added control along with the ability to create new stunts and tricks.
    • Metascore: 84
    • Critic Score 70
    And while the game itself is straightforward in gameplay, the difficulty of the puzzles are almost outrageous.
    • Metascore: 83
    • Critic Score 90
    I saw rendered worlds that looked almost hand-drawn in Looney Tunes cartoon fashion, with cel-rendered cartoon characters. In the end, add to that a solid and smooth framerate, and a great cartoon look. It's really like playing a Warner Bros Looney Tune.
    • Metascore: 82
    • Critic Score 80
    One cool thing Sega was able to do was cast Leonard Nimoy (the infamous Dr. Spock) as your narrator and guide to raising your Seaman.
    • Metascore: 81
    • Critic Score 70
    The game is packed with over 70 scenarios including everything from the original Railroad Tycoon II and their Second Century expansion pack, plus all new scenarios designed exclusively for the Dreamcast.
    • Metascore: 80

    The biggest difference in this and other racers is the adaptive AI. The other cars do not run the same line all the time. They will cut corners, and will try to run you off the road if need be.
    • Metascore: 79
    • Critic Score 60
    And maybe in the future, you can race through more than just one road in Tokyo.
    • Metascore: 79
    • Critic Score 80
    Sure, it's not 3D in-your-face graphics, or a techno soundtrack. But I'll tell you what it is.....fun.
    • Metascore: 79
    • Critic Score 80
    A fantastic game, and a worthy sequal to last year's sleeper hit.
    • Metascore: 79
    • Critic Score 90
    With online play, and a moving "Star Wars"-style storyline, you definately want to climb in the cockpit of StarLancer and take a ride around the galaxy.
    • Metascore: 78
    • Critic Score 80
    If you haven't picked up NFL Blitz 2001, and you want a fast paced, no rules, slamfest for you and your buds, then you need to go get this game. Still here??
    • Metascore: 77
    • Critic Score 70
    What Demolition Racer lacks in graphical power, it makes up in raw fun power.
    • Metascore: 76
    • Critic Score 80
    But beware, you'll need a little time to learn the controls.
    • Metascore: 75
    • Critic Score 70
    This is a game of strategy and time, so quick-gamers need not apply.
    • Metascore: 74
    • Critic Score 80
    You can see things like vapor trails coming off the wings, sun glare, nicely textured landscape, variable weather, and extremely detailed planes.
    • Metascore: 74
    • Critic Score 70
    The off-roader's dream game.
