Summary: Jarrett & Labonte Stock Car Racing
Comment: Having read the other reviews, I kept wondering if I have played the same game. Because that's not how I saw it.Physics/control: The car gets loose, it understeers, it spins, etc. The car also responds directly to the controllers movement -> this part I did not like. There should be a response lag (no matter how well a car handles) but it feels like I am controlling a remote control toy car. It seems Codemasters had to cut some corners on physics to put 12 cars on the track at the same time. I did notice different handling characteristics on the cars. 7/10.
Graphics/sound: Yuck is all I can say. It was very painful to look at, track-wise or car-wise. It is very difficult to see which way the track is going if you are on it for the 1st time. The cars look like they are made up of 10 polygons (yes I am exaggerating a little). I cannot tell which car is which (say, a BMW from Opel) unless I go by their colour schemes. The sound is OK: the engines sound different and effects are acceptable. 5/10.
Realism: This is where JLSR excels. The tracks are R/L tracks from around the world and they are quite realistic from track layout point of view. Also, you know the cars are from actual racing series which is also nice. The racing is more difficult than GT series and these guys drive dirty. I have only completed 3 national series and have won them with less than my average success (3~4 wins per series out of 6 total). The cockpit view gives the best impression of 'actual' driving but I found the front bumper view most accessible. This game has medium depth. I figure I can get to world championship level in less than 25 hours of play where as GT2 easily ate up 100 hours and them some more. I see no repeat play of JLSR once I win the world championship. 8/10.
Fun/Addictivity: Well, I played it two nights in a row and want to play some more. 6/10.
Overall rating = (7+5+8+6)/4 = a solid 65% from me!!! Only reason I got this game was to hype myself to the upcoming 'Pro Race Driver' from Codemasters June/02. If it has the 2nd gen. PS2 graphics, improved physics, I believe it will be a big hit in my books.
