This is a PS1 Launch title, and it shows.

So... where do I start to write?

First of all once you boot this game for the first time, you have to learn the main menu, because for some odd reason it's not that simple to navigate at first.

So... where do I start to write?

First of all once you boot this game for the first time, you have to learn the main menu, because for some odd reason it's not that simple to navigate at first.

There aren't too many tracks here so bare that in mind. each track is about 4-5 minutes long, and each one is filled with obstacles along side your fellow racers trying to knock you down on the way. kinda similar to Road Rash.

the racing equipment consisting of Roller blade, Mountain Bike, Skateboard, and a Street Luge. They are all different with each one offering different advantage and disadvantage on each track. there are money collectables while racing and I assume there is a way to buy better equipment just because there is a catalog for different equipment, but I didn't know how to obtain them.

Controlling your racer is different in each track as mentioned before, but it's not easy. the controls suffer from a slight input delay which can be a make or break moment. There are a lot of time where the game well sign your input and you have to press again and can make the can infuriating. the hit box in this can be a little wild.

The graphics are not bad but there are a lot of sudden (you hit this obstacle because you didn't see it).

Overall the game is not bad. I enjoyed it but it feels like driving on a rocky hill. It's fun but infuriating. It would given it a 2.5 out 5 but 3 isn't bad. If you want to play, then I would recommend doing so with a friend.
