Showdown is a lot of fun

Drivers should understand that this is a showdown or championship game. It doesn't have to be like a "normal racing video game". The game is very interesting, I recommend it to everyone.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Negative impression

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Decent but non-essential purchase

I've never played a DiRT game, so don't be biased. I've played a lot of racing games though, so if I play one I know a good one. Since there are very few PS3 racing games out there I really wanted DiRT Showdown so I bought it. I've already read the reviews so I expected the game to be around a 7.5/10. The single player mode called Showdown Tour just doesn't like it. The gameplay itself is good, but nothing keeps you glued to the screen. There is no plot, which is the main reason the campaign…

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
  • No performance

If you want to buy used and play online you have to spend another $10

Great game, fun and decent graphics. I only give 4 stars for ONE reason! To go online with multiple players, you must use the VIP access code provided with the game. My game came with one, but if you're buying a used game like me, you'll need to buy a code from the playstation store for around $10. It's not worth it to me like knowing that I would spend another 10 bucks for a new game and I would have a new game with the VIP code working in it. It is what it is and I just want you to know…

Pros
  • Feels good
Cons
  • Not the best

Destruction Derby for this console generation

Simply put, this game is a pleasure. No long, windy reviews with numerous paragraphs are required. It's an elimination derby. You have 8 cars on the track trying to collide each other and get the most points. They also have other modes like 8-Ball which is a lot of fun. Elimination, this is your typical last man standing event. Containing real licensed cars, Head-2-Head is essentially a gymnastics from DiRT 3. There is also a mode where the track is divided into 4 sectors and the goal is to set

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Doubtful purchase for the elderly

Great crash and bash!

This game works very well for me and supports my wheel/pedals perfectly. It's reminiscent of Monster Truck Madness 2 and was my favorite. It's loud and dramatic!

Pros
  • Special Offer
Cons
  • Weak Set

Lots of great games

My 10 year old son really wanted a demolition game that he could use to crash into other cars. He says it's "amazing". It was exactly what he had expected and desired. According to him, there are many options to choose from and the graphics are really cool.

Pros
  • New to my collection
Cons
