Test drive 4x4

Review by : Crazy Review

Format : Playstation

Type : Racing

Players : 1

Whoever combined off-roading with the dual shock pad was a sad and twisted individual. Imagine it, every time you hit a hump or a bump VRRRRRRRR! The thing shakes worse than a bee-hive down your pants, and this is going to happen lots as the tracks are almost entirely made out of humps and bumps. It used to be that this kind of jumping and crashing was all you could hope for from an off-road sim, but we thought Colin Mcrae had changed all of that. Obviously not. Balancing trucks against cars always cause problems, and here the range is very odd with the Chenworth 2 buggy obviously a winner in every department. This is actually pretty disappointing, considering the high standard of the rest of the Test Drive series. Poor handling, ragged graphics and narrow, awkward tracks, mean this isn't fit to lick Test Drive 4's tyre treads. Go back to playing Colin Mcrae on time trial.
