"ABSOLUTELY THE WORST RACING GAME I'VE EVER PLAYED!"

1 Rating: 1, Useful: 8 / 11

This game is truly awful. It is, without a doubt, the WORST racing game I have ever played. Racing games I played on my old Sega Genesis were better than this boring, stupid game. The cars look ok, but they're not half as good as the ones in "GRAN TURISMO 3". They're just not fun to race. You can only race certain cars on certain tracks and that just plain STINKS! Even the opening movie is BORING. Two vettes endlessly racing down the highway for what seems an eternity.

Take my advice and stay clear of this game. There are better racing titles out there like "BURNOUT", "NEED FOR SPEED UNDERGROUND", "MIDNIGHT CLUB 2", "GRAN TURISMO 3" and even "FORD RACING 2". Try one of them but forget this game. It is TERRIBLE! -George Bauch.

If you dont have this game, youre not a true corvette fan. Some people say this game isn't that great, but THEY ARE WRONG. This game is one of the best racing games in the world. And for $10, seriously thats a deal. It has sooooo many options like career mode, arcade mode, and some other special modes, that you have to unlock. Whats really cool about it, is that you dont get all of the cars in the beginning, you have to unlock them, that makes the game even more challenging. All in all this game is a "you must get".

Corvette is one of the greatest racing games on the market. This game is really great for Corvette lovers. The graphics are so great I thought that I was really driving a Corvette. There are five diffrent career race tournaments. Each tournament has different modles of Corvettes. After each tournament race if you place in first, second or third you unlock engine and paint mods.

Great Game!

The Corvette is the best American sports car. I can't believe there wasn't a game about Corvettes before now. The graphics are pretty good and the gameplay is great. The steering is tough but you get used to it. A great game. The game is a bit easy to beat though. I don't like two player mode though. You cannot change the camera view from the first person style view. Otherwise it is a good game.

Unbelievably awesome

This game is so great. I have loved corvettes since before I was born. This game finally gives the car the respect it deserves. I mean Need For Speed put the Corvette into its games but not like this. This game lets you drive models all the way as old as 1953. The only thing is too bad this game doesnt include the upcoming 2005 Corvette C6 but it does include everything else. Graphics are a little more cartoony then real but they look great anyway. Too bad this game doesn't show damage to the cars, why not? There is no way to make this car look bad. For $10 it is the best value game out there. I recommend this to everyone. If you don't like this game, and you call yourself an automotive enthusiast you are wrong about one of those two things. If you're thinking of trying out this game by renting it at Blockbuster for $4, you might as well buy it. It is definitely worth it

really fun for the money

I'm a little lost why everyone is bashing the heck out of this title. It only costs $10 folks, and its worth it. The game is fun and simple. There are plenty of different modes to play and lots of things to unlock. Basic play is rather easy. Despite what people say, there are differences in the cars from year to year. for example, a 67 will out run a 63 in a straight line. If the cars were all the same, that would be impossible. The older cars have awful brakes just like they did in real life. The c5 a re fluid and graceful and the c4's are chunky and tempermental, just like in real life. (i've owned a c3, c4 and c5) The graphics are pretty nice, and the tunnel vision at 100mph is a nice effect. The courses are pretty good (although there are some that i dont care for).
Dislikes: 2 player mode makes you race the same era of cars. dirt and pavement traction is fairly similar. physics aren't too real, but close enough for fun.
The game could be imporved upon without a doubt, and if it was I'd pay the normal $50, but in this case i only paid $10, and I feel that the game is a great value for the money. I dont need a clone of GT3 or NFS or anything else. i have those and if i want to play them i will.
lastly, the most humorous defect i've found so far: When in 2 player mode, if player 1 wins, then player 2's car will not have any engine noise. You still hear tires screaching and wind noise though. rather funny.

It felt and looked like I was playing a ps1 game from the late 90's. The Corvettes have a nice sound, the cars do not drive realisticly, they handle and feel heavy, the graphics are a little behind compared to there competitors. In comparison to Gran tursimo aspec, the corvette does not look photo realistic. The replays are very nauseating to watch and there is a limited number of tracks per car. I recommend renting the game. The game is not very good, its just good. Thats why the price was reduced. However the vital info on the vettes is good for learning and understanding what numbers the vette puts down in the 1/4 mile run and 0-60 times.

Very Disappointing!

First of all, thank God that I didn't buy this game before borrowing it from two of my friends, because I was very disappointed in this game. And, of course, like every videogame out there, this game DID have some good parts to it, but, of course, it had some bad parts to it.

Pros
> pretty good graphics
> great cars
> great tracks

Cons
> on PS2, you have to press X really hard to get to your top speed
> racing gets boring after a couple of races
> in multiplayer mode, Player 2 has to race using first person view(which is really stupid!)
> the car handling stinks
> the menu music can get annoying

If you want to buy a good racing game, don't buy this game. You should buy NFSU or any other NFS game. Heck, you could buy Ford Racing 2, that's just as good. I recommend that you rent this game before buying it. If you like it, hey, that's your opinion.

corvette ok but no that great
