I'm not an ambi-turnerGenre: racing - simulation
Publisher: Sony Imagesoft
Year: 1994
System: Genesis
Gameplay Score: 1
Gameplay Notes:
Is there a sport more boring that stock car racing? I guess I can understand why someone would watch the sport. Well, not really, but whatever, I'm trying to throw someone a bone. Even if it has its virtues, this sport makes for an incredibly poor gaming experience. The entire gameplay can be summed up in two statements: hold A and press left. That's it. There's nothing else to do. The game honors your request to do those two things, which is more than can be said for trash like College Football '97, but there is nothing to do in this game.
Level Design Score: 0
Level Design Notes:
Three tracks. Three. And they're all ovals. Yup
Theme Score: 0
Theme Notes:
I hate stock car racing. I also hate ESPN. Boom. I would never pick this up off the shelf
Art Style Score: 1
Art Style Notes:
The track animates smoothly but it's also devoid of any features whatsoever. The cars animate poorly and don't scale well either. They're also very small on screen. Nothing looks particularly good. Half the screen is covered by the HUD which works surprisingly well since THERES NOTHING TO DO in this game.
Audio Score: 1
Audio Notes:
Just road noise and a lot of crunching when cars bump together.
Overall Score: 14
