The best racing game of the year..."Gran Turismo 2" and "3" are just as good, but they are definitely not better than Splashdown.

Game InformerGameCube's Wave Race will receive the hype this holiday season, but Splashdown's sexy curves and what it can do with them are much more appealing to me. [Dec 2001, p.95]

As long as you dont mind a slightly more technical feel and a hefty challenge, youll find the best thing to happen with jetskis since the N64s Wave Race.
-
Easy to handle control, a decent trick system, and the all important water physics are down pat.
-
This is a better game than "Wave Race: Blue Storm." It may not have the wave physics that Nintendo's racer has (or many waves at all for that matter), but it runs away with the look of the water, control, and playability.

Official U.S. Playstation MagazineI have never seen water this realistic in a video game. [Jan 2002, p.136]
-
It's difficult to remember which tricks youve performed in a race, and which ones have yet to be done... It would have been nice to have stunts reset after a while.
