US Racer

The Good
The game features a radio, making the game more realistic.

The cars look nice.

Cops add to the challenge.

The graphics are good, and so are the sounds

The Bad
Well, they could have put a dashboard like Maxis did in Streets of Sim City to make it more realistic.

The controls are sensitive! A little tap on the left or right key and the car makes a big turn.

On my Windows 98, the game runs horribly! On the back of the CD case, it said it could run on Windows 98, 2000, and even 95! The game slows down on me on numerous occasions. I can't imagine how it would run on 95.

The other racers run on a fixed course which means: NO AI! NONE AT ALL!

The Bottom Line
It is a fun game, I mean, you race through the U.S, but it isn't the best out there.

The Good
What I like about the game is that you can race in the USA, there aren't games where you can race trough the USA. Davilex has made often much other race games in Holland, Germany, France and England, but the AI of all those game were the same, always, the fastest car always won and the slowest car lose. But in USA racer it is different. The speed of the game is much faster then the European predecessors were not.

The Bad
What I don't like about the game is the objects that are placed on the road for upgrades for the car like "repair" and "turbo". I think they never had to make that, that makes the game silly and a little bit to easy. Some graphics could be made better.

The Bottom Line
A reasonable game. Games like NFS 3 are by my opinion much better and there is even more AI, what the game makes more harder to play. But after all, it isn't so bad what they say about the game.
