Unlikely 90% of most recent XBLA games, I may have to try this one...

This game wasnt as fun as I remember unfortunately.

Definalty not as fun as i remember but online play and split screen im sure will be a hoot when i try it. Single player not recommended!

Ugh, yeah it's not as fun as I remember either. Part of the problem I'm having with it is the bugs. Going 2 MPH, hit a rock, rocket into the sky like I was going 200 MPH. Crashing into another car, both models clip together (essentially becoming one demon car!) Or my personal favorite- Hit by a mortar, clip through the map and sit "below" for the rest of the game.
Fun but flawed.

Not as much fun as I remembered it, either.

A little "tweaky" to try and aim, but fun..

I'll probably get about 5 again, and then give up like I usually do ;)

I bought this at 5 am last night soon as it appeared on XBL. Granted I was waiting till 5 am so I could copp it. Now let's see if Dead Samurai and SSFIITHDR ever come out.

As far as I remember, that game was crap when it came out in the first place (ps1, was it?)
