Paris-Dakar not worth your time
« on: October 12, 2001, 01:26:46 PM »
Rented it today.  Ready to take it back today.

4 classes to choose from and about 4 vehicles each.  Only 1 of each vehicle is playable at the beginning.[list=1]
  • 4WD
  • Motorbike
  • Buggy
  • ATV
    • [/list=1] Motorbike sux.  Buggy not much better.  4WD is playable.  Didn\'t even try ATV.

    Music is good.  Graphics so-so.  LOAD TIMES ARE DISGUSTING.

    Don\'t rent
    Don\'t buy

"Don\'t rent

Neither thought even crossed my mind with this game

Thanks EmperorRob.  I\'m fairly much a racing game freak...but I hate to have to turn into a hunchback due to fury of a poor game.  Appreciate the heads up.  Seems I remember previews indicating much the same points...of course, the previews were holding out with that time-honored point: "...but this is still only the beta and 80% complete so the developers still have time to \'fix\' these flaws..."  Yeah, right!  So much for Paris-Dakar... :(

It was a toss-up between that and Gadget Racers, which is probably also gay.

You played Dave Mirra ?

Dave Mirra?  Only in a demo.  Never seem to get "bike" physics right IMO.  Always seems like the bikes just "pivot" left/right/etc.  Doesn\'t seem to matter whether its actually bikes or motorcycles...they just seem to react weird in action.  Not my bag I\'m afraid...but ATV Fury was a blast!:D

Thanks EmperorRob, I almost bought it yesterday but I decided to wait till next weekend because of a little problem,  $$:D. I was also thinking in NHL 2002 or Formula 1 2002.
