    • “I did play around with the EU version of the game, and while I had no issues launching it, the lack of any in-race music turned me away.”
    • “I found the pristine-clean 'offroad' car textures to be interesting, but unfitting, and I felt the same for the typical PS2 racing game main menu music and background it used.”
  • gameplay
