One of my favourite games, despite the flaws

The Good
- The style - It perfected the DD and DD2 style and athmosphere
- The mayhem - the tracks and big grid bring the chaos you need
- The physics - for a PS1 game physics are perfect
- The damage - damage looks good
- The track variety - there are a lot of tracks
- The multiplayer - while only on arenas still better than DD2 in that aspect.

The Bad
- The AI acts rather boring
- The AI scores, probably due to optimizations, are fake
- The career mode doesn't lead to a final standing - it is never final. When you finish the Smash 4 cash you get credtis, then start over with the already accumulated results still standing
- Multiplay featuring only arenas. My favourites are the tracks themselves, and no, you cannot race on them with friends unfortunately.

The Bottom Line
Can anyone stop the mechanical mayhem AAA!!!!!
I can clearly see where the shortcommings came from. It was year 2000 and PS2 was just around the corner. Despite it's flaws I still love this game.
