| I rented Super Offroad this weekend. I've played the game in the arcade every
time I go into an arcade, and was happy to see this one out for Nintendo.
General observations:
o Though you steer with the joystick, after a couple of laps, it's easy to
control the truck. Something I didn't find true with R.C. Pro-Am.
o A variety of tracks (6-8) with the races running in both directions.
o As stated earlier, bumps throw you off badly, but after watching the real
thing (real truck on dirt tracks), I think it was realistic.
o Trucks are small, but not hard to track.
o As you win, you can power up your truck. Better engine, tires, shocks, etc.
This increases your chances of winning further races.
o Fun game for one person, though it may prove boring after several days play.
This is one of the new four-player games, and probably would be a great
deal of fun with the right crowd.
It's a good but not great game I.M.O.. I'd probably give it a 6.5 to 7. If
you liked R.C. Pro-Am, you'll probably like this one.
