Another game I can add to the list is this:
I don't completely dislike the game, but if you had to ask me if it's a "good game", I would simply say no. The game has some nice cars, tracks and customization, but that's just about it. The rest is rather unappealing and eventually gets boring. This is one of those games were if you want to know how to play some parts of the game, you will have to read the instruction manual before playing it (Let's be serious here, who does that?), otherwise this game will confuse you. They make it seem rather tedious and complicated when you're trying to race and it often takes the fun out of it.
The graphics are not too good for it's time and they could be easily be better, but they are not. The cars have very unrealistic performance and I don't play these types of games and expect realistic performance, but I am pretty sure a fully tuned Mustang can't go over 300 MPH in a 1/4 mile drag strip.
It's easy to get disqualified if you aren't careful, luckily it's not too bad depending on the track you choose.
One thing I certainly cannot forget is the loading times, it is easily the worst I have ever seen in any game I have ever played! It's so slow at loading even the simplest things in the game such as changing the color of your car and it shouldn't take that long at all. To add more to it, when you get disqualified, their is a long delay before it starts loading again so you can restart, it is simply ridiculous. I can remember playing it once and then going over the line and getting disqualified. I had to wait at least 15 seconds before it started loading again so I could restart and I was like "Okay I get it already!" because I was already fed up with the games slow loading times and that unnecessarily long delay only made it worse. If you get disqualified a lot, you'll get sick of it very fast.
I am sure I have more things I could list on why this game is here, but I can't remember anything else and I don't own the game anymore. This game isn't the "absolute worst" game I have ever played, but if I had to make a list of the worst games I have played in all my years of gaming, this would belong somewhere on that list. I don't really like making long wordy posts like this, but there is just a lot I want to cover when I mention a game like this. It's kind of hard to elaborate on it and keep it short.
