Yea i think that the 3d games on GBA sucks, but this one, its better than any other, nice graphics, and very nice action, a lot of ramps, etc, i believe that its one of the most impressive titles in 3D for GBA, you must try this one.

Hey!! it my personal opinion ,

Reserver X · Nov 6, 2004

omg hax0r minish cap

.

just kiding

yea um... 3d for the gba does suck... they belong in the pile of crap along with that elf game and polar express game (not that the movies were bad)-

- "the kind of game you get for your children... if you want them to kick you in the nuts"

thats my opinion.

Some 3D GBA games are good (Ecks v sever, V-Rally, Mario Kart, F-Zero) but mostly they're bad (like this one). The only reason they are in 3D is for idiots who buy games based on shots on the box then from actual reviews.

Anyone looking for a new decent GBA racer should look out for Racing Gears Advance, those who have played it at all these games shows reckon its up there with Micro Machines, Super Off Road and Rock n Roll Racing.

Vater Unser · Nov 6, 2004

F-Zero and Mario Kart aren't 3D, they're using the Mode7 effect which the SNES versions already used 10 years ago

but I had my fun with V-Rally and Top Gear Rally, too...not all 3D GBA games are bad, but I wonder why all the new 3D GBA games look worse than the very first 'real' 3D one, V-Rally...

take a look at games like Driver 2, they look so bad it hurts, and it even has loading times...

despite looking terrible, sega rally on the gba played great, felt very similar to the arcade imho tho everyone else seemed to hate it..

Has anyone actually played this? It's actually very impressive! The 3D is very good and the framerate is very impressive too.
The game plays quite well, it's just a straight forward racer (literally - you can't turn around). Lots of wacky power ups and very detailed and fun courses. Proper music too, with vocals even though the songs are crap. There's a voice over in the game too, telling you what power up you grabbed or if you're running low on time.

Seems like a fun game! I don't know if there's more to the game than just racing yet, I thought it was a Crazy Taxi clone... oh well, I'm going to flash it and play it a bit more.

This game is pretty good but the car seems to be too distant. The best 3D gameboy advance game ever released was V-Rally 3 (or maybe Asterix & Obelix XXL). I'm still waiting for something to beat Duval & Velez in making 3D engines for GBA

.TakaM · Nov 6, 2004

this is a good game, but you have to be appreciative of how much they put in they game, power ups which are really cool, the wings and big wheels are my fav, and the shortcuts are realy awesome, I love the one with the gorrila then yuo drive down an elevator shaft and back onto the road
and the ending when you drive up the statue of liberty man.... its awesome

and since they blocked of all the unneccesary roads it doesnt have slowdown like crazy taxi did, this game had to be made in 3d for all the features a 2d game couldnt do, and it did a damn good job, a rally game is a lot easier because you only have about 5 other cars on at once, this one has traffic everywhere not to mention the huge buildings!

it was a good game but I finished it in about 15 mins o.o

Gee, I thought that graphics didn't matter to you people, gameplay does. At least that's always your argument for the DS's inferior graphics when it comes up.

Vater Unser · Nov 6, 2004

right, graphics don't matter (as long as they fit and are good enough to see what you're doing), that's why developers shouldn't make 3D GBA games, but rather use Mode7 for racing games

the DS graphics aren't that inferior to the PSP's...they both are somewhere between N64 and Dreamcast quality

I don't want to play shitty games, just because of the better graphics

Not everyoe said that, there are still some graphics whores...

This game doesn't feel too great but it is pretty fun to play. The intro is so wrong!

Yeaa, im agree, like i posted before, this 3d game its really impressive, i love the ramps, its was a surprise, when i start driving inside an airport, and then the planes.... this game is very nice :gbasp:

subanark · Nov 6, 2004

People dis it up and down until shaunj66 says its good. Then everybody says yea it is good

. The only true 3-d game for the gba I've ever liked is monkey ball jr.

monkey ball jr, i forgot about that...excellent 3d graphics & gameplay...proves 3d can work on a GBA *runs off to flash monkey jr*

MAAN i was hoping i would be playing Zelda this weekend

Undercover Flip · Nov 7, 2004

The only good 3D car/racing/etc game for the GBA, in my opinion, was Need for Speed Underground. It was pretty good. D: Now this is crap. D:

Yes its seems like i was the only one enjoying this game, until Shaunj66 appears....

Dark_Lord Malik · Nov 7, 2004

Okay i tried this game. First thing is that the Intro is horrible, It looks a little bit like Spideman one. Ok i played this game without worrying about the graphics, I admit though that it is somewhat fun but still it is not good enough. Like i don`t like the wreck when you hit a car.

Everybody should try Penny Racers for the GBA. This game was in 3d and it doesn`t sucks. Graphics are great(atleast better than this one) and the ability to powerup your cars is great. Everybody should try it.

Try2bcool · Nov 7, 2004

I'm a graphics whore....yep yep!

Zap · Nov 7, 2004

in my book, graphics like Zelda: A Link To The Past is THE perfect graphic for the GBA.

I tried this game... yep, just like any other 3d wanna b game... choppy AND blocky...
