Classic is basic racing with only nitro boosts available to the racers. In both career and quick play you have the option of playing classic or type X modes. Perhaps once I grind more money for car upgrades it will become easier. I have completed both beginner and standard, but find myself struggling with expert. There is a beginner, standard, expert and master championship, each which has many races to compete in. Speaking of the career, while no story is involved this mode is something that you will need to sink some time into in order to unlock all the cars. Eleven of the twenty-one cars are locked at first, but you unlock them over time by completing certain career championships. This adds some tactics to choosing which car you want to focus on with your hard earned in game dollars. Each car has slightly different handling, nitro, acceleration and top speed stats, but all can be upgraded with currency you gain in game.Ĭertain vehicles will have different ceilings on each of those stats, so the bus has a higher upgrade ceiling for handling than the cop car, but can’t compete in terms of upgrades for top speed. Racing cars, muscle cars, pickup trucks, cop cars and even a bus. To get around all these cool tracks you will eventually gain access to a total of twenty-one cars. Still, this is way more than I expected and from the resort, docks, cliffs and desert all the way to the airport, they all look superb. Fifty-two stages in total, although there is a day and night option for each, so it’s really twenty-six unique venues. There are a wealth of tracks to race on here as well. In total you have the option of six different views, with one isometric and the other five being various angles behind the car. If this isn’t to your liking though you have the option to switch to a more traditional behind the car camera.

As soon as you start playing you will quickly get Micro Machines vibes with the isometric camera the game uses by default.
