Surviving the Drive
Posted on 05.22.07 by skintari @ 9:43 am

Here’s a little game that came out, courtesy of D3. It’s the Americanized version of “Genocide Grand Prix” (Japan). This game costs about $10 and you can find it at just about any local game store with a tad bit of looking. I definately recommend picking it up for the sheer thrill of it!

So, what is Drive to Survive you ask? Well, it’s not a very good game. The graphics are dull and common, the camera can mess you up, and the AI can be “too good”. But the fun of this game is the multiplayer!

It’s your basic 3rd person racing game. The difference is that you have weapon pick ups that you can use on your “enemies”, ala Twisted Metal. The cars handle like a wet sock, but that sometimes works to your advantage. The game is not very deep either. There’s 3 tiers of single player racing with about 15 different tracks. Once you beat that, there’s not much else.

But the multiplayer is the meat of this game. With 3 friends over, you can spend hours blowing each other up. Every time I have played the multiplayer, I have ended up in tears from laughing so hard. It is that much fun!

Overall, this game is a 2/5 for single player. But the multiplayer is definitely worth a couple extra points…..so it gets a 4/5 for that. My recommendation is if you see this game, it’s worth the few bucks to pick it up!
