Any possible skepticism about gratuitous licensing is blown away after punching the gas and doing your first double somersault flip in Hot Wheels. You can race solo or head-to-head with one of 40 classic Hot Wheels toys come to life, including Jet Threat, Mongoose, or the killer Red Baron.
Next, you can place those classic cars on one of eight rockin', rollin' tracks packed full of loops, jumps, shortcuts, and unique challenges as you slam your car into the competition. Tricks and turbos are what Hot Wheels is all about, which is a shame because this has to be one of the biggest mistakes in the game.
If there's one thing a car cannot do, it's tricks! Think about it - a car just cannot turn that many different ways, and it's not as if you can stick your arm out the window and do a nose grab! You're limited to flat spins, flips and barrel rolls, which all quickly become repetitive, but are unfortunately unavoidable.
The reason is that to win turbos, you must do tricks. To make matters even worse, you cannot link tricks together and the trick detection itself is atrociously bad. Picture the scene: you arrive at a ramp and manage to get enough air to tweak the nose of the car a bit before you land. The second component is the Hot Wheels Turbo Racing rom itself to play on the emulator. All PSX Emulators. Unfortunately downloading video game roms is against Nintendo's terms and conditions , even if the games are old and no longer being sold by the copyright owner, so we can't provide any rom file for download via this website.
It really takes a while to get comfortable with the cars and the tracks. There are over 40 Hot Wheels cars to choose from. Sure, they all look really cool, but you want to be able to make it around the track fast enough and in one piece to be able to win the race. Some of the cars will have higher top speeds than others and varying degrees of stunt ability, durability and control responsiveness.
Your job is to find a car that will best suit your driving style and abilities. When you reach certain levels and win some races, new cars will be unlocked that can have higher performance characteristics than the standard cars that are available at the beginning of the race. You can choose between five different modes of play, on 11 different racetracks. In the Hot Wheels Cup, the goal is to finish first in the race against the other cars.
Your speed on the course is determined by the number of "Turbos" you accumulate and use to propel your car into break-neck speed. The amount of Turbos awarded to you is based on the difficulty of the stunt performed and your successful completion by landing on your wheels without touching any of the walls or other objects. The tracks are really cool, with plenty of loops and secret passageways to keep you on your toes.
Metallica, Primus and several other bands further enhance the game with some killer tunes. You can choose which music you want to hear, or you can let the system randomly play them for you. There are also plenty of "Power-Ups" spread throughout the tracks. The other main mode of play is the Airtime Challenge. This mode is not quite as fun in my opinion, since you are simply performing stunts to accumulate as many points as possible.
It just seemed a lot more competitive, challenging and exciting to me. The graphics in this game are actually pretty darn good. I like the unique racetracks, which are highly colorful and nicely detailed. Some of the tracks are really cool. They even did a nice job on all of the background scenery whizzing by on the screen. I think the cars are pretty well detailed too. This is one of those games that was a real surprise to me. I never expected it to be as good as it is. It is a lot of fun, very challenging and unique.
Many people will probably overlook this game due to its name. Sure, the youngsters will enjoy it as much as anyone else will, but the big kids will surely get a kick out of it too. Go buy it!
