Test Drive.
I don't want to waste my time bashing on this game, since I could spend close to an hour doing so, but I do want to say that I found this game lacking any level of satisfaction. The easiest level is the first and the hardest the second, and the game only gets harder after that. Maybe I'm complaining, but this game sucks; it takes close to a minute for the game to load a 20 second cinematic, and then follows with another loading scene. The gameplay lacks flavor, as they challenge you to spin around corners almost consecutively while hitting inanimate objects and doing "X" turns. I'm finished, I'll turn off my rantbox now.

Except Test Drive 3 (the old 1992 game) ALL the Testdrive games sucked. Need for speed is SO much better..

If you don`t like it, take it back to the shop or give it to someone else as a christmas presant.
