Race your rc car against AI opponents armed with an assortment of weapons. Race on one of five detailed courses or create a custom course. It does a bit, doesn’t it? Fairly unattractive but playable racer with a custom course feature. I like customising things. 240 pointaroo’s. Which are like points but sort of bouncier. [...]

Wait…what? Hang on a minute. Something is wrong in the land of XBLIG. I think my 360 is more broken than I assumed. This really can’t be right at all. I’ve just loaded up an avatar game and it’s got an actual game in it. Not just hit a button to do something silly or [...]

Spawned upstream with Dotstream and Streamline, BitStream is a steer-your-line-around-obstacles racing game with superior audiovisuals and a twist.

Honestly, there isn’t a lot to say about this one. It’s a simple, zooming down a corridor, dodge-em-up. I’m going out of my way to highlight it because, despite being basic, it is solidly put together, it’s fun, and it has that “just one more go” factor. Three things that a majority of more complex [...]

The principle behind Track Architect is pretty simple: drive your car from the start point to the goal, avoiding all the obstacles, and trying not to flip over. If you’ve played Elasto Mania or Trials HD, you’ll get the gist of it. You can accelerate, decelerate and balance your car using the analog stick. As [...]

Thrust harder. With a vengeance. I suppose there had to be a dip at some point. After two very successful Xbox Indie titles (and both recommended on release and still recommended for you to try this very day), Halfbrick Rocket Racing comes as a bit of a disappointment. You’ve got all the elements of a [...]

It seems inevitable that any “Mode 7″-styled go-kart racer gets labeled a Mario Kart clone. It’s rather unfair that an entire genre is perceived as ripping off a single title, even if it was the originator of the genre. I try to judge a game by its own merits, and let it be defined by [...]
