This is an extremely underated game!

This is one of the better science fiction racing games that have ever been released. Even though there are a few flaws, this game still deserves 5 stars because it is so innovative and nothing like it has come out since. You will start by being able to choose between several different disguise vehicles that look like ordinary trucks so that your secret identity, an advanced alien scouting vehicle, will be concealed. You have some very cool alien space powers during game play that might make the game a little too easy for experienced gamers, especially since most of the powers activate automatically, allowing you to decimate your opponents in the races. For example, your freeze ray will automatically stop your opponent in his tracks at the beginning of the race and he will not be able to move so you can complete the race at your leisure. The cops in the game are also no match for the advanced weaponry of your vehicle and any cop cars are disintegrated with your invisible laser beam before they even come into sight. Unfortunately this weapon doesn't seem to differentiate between cops and any other car because you never actually come across any other vehicles. Some other super cool powers you have is to automatically phase through any solid objects in the game, which is a clever idea by the developers to let you avoid that terrible frustration that comes with crashing. Your super space vehicle can also spin in place almost as fast as a tornado, stop instantly, scale vertical cliffs, and enter special warp zones at the edge of each track. These powers are easy to use and will make you feel very powerful during each race. It isn't that challenging of a game but don't let that stop you from feeling full of pride when you win the race and get that famous "You're winner!" I'll never forget that first time I got that message because it made for one of the happiest days of my life. I definitely recommend this game!

"Worst Game Ever Created" Gamespot Review

The game was the winner of number 1 spot on Gamespot's 10 worst game list. I saw all review videos on multiple sights, the game is so awful YOU CAN DRIVE THROUGH ANYTHING, and bridges you go under, you fall and and keep driving and come out the other side and do things like drive 100 miles an hour on a full horizontal angle of a mountain! The only reason some one should buy this is to laugh non stop at how bad it is.

Bestest Game Ever? Jesus thinks so.

This game is simply flawless. Every aspect is carved to eat out your heart, soul, and mind. With enthralling care to detail, sharp textures, and vivid animation (you can practically lick the smoke coming from your "big puppy's" exhaust pipe).

But this game isn't about its mind-blowing graphics that surpass even current generation (Gears of War? Psssssshhh. Check out this field of perspective - THROUGH A GIANT, FULLY AMERICAN, TRUCK). No. At heart, Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing is defined through its incredible gameplay. When you back up, YOU FEEL LIKE YOU ENTER A LEVEL OF TRUCK RACING NO OTHER GAME HAS BEEN ABLE TO EVEN COME CLOSE TO!

Oh and here's what caught my attention the most about this game: the AI. You know how games like the James Bond series are meticulously similar to the incredible, impossible feats of the movies? Well Big Rigs simplifies matters, and certainly makes you feel like "you're winner!"

In short, there is no way to sum up the level of quality this game brings in just one review. You will have to witness it for yourself. As God put it when he played Big Rigs, "Holy ****!"

spectacular

Man you guys are harsh. This game is and always will be the best game in the universe. Need a quick physics review before your test? Play Big Rigs, for the most accurate physics ever incorporated into a game. After all, everyone knows that the first law of physics is, if your car is bigger than a building, it will automatically dissipate right through it! I'm getting an A next semester for sure! And for those of you who enjoy music while studying, have no fear. The soundtrack for this game is amazing! The cool techno beats keep you on the edge for hours as you race your sweet rig against your opponent, keeping yourself from getting caught by the cops. Simply put, the song is amazing. In all honesty though, this game would be nothing without the massive rig and course selections. One of the courses even has a brilliant strategy to it -- it shuts off the game! Wow what a concept! Anyways definately buy this game. It's worth your money and then some. In the future you will sacrifice your first born child even. So buy it. Now!
Note: If you're being beaten everytime and can't figure out how to make your car go faster, make your car go in reverse around the course.
And btw, YOU'RE WINNER!

I think of myself as someone who usually is too nice when I review things. That being said, on to the review.

Hands down, the worst game to see the light of day. Incase you didn't hear me, WORST GAME EVER. The Good, NADA. The bad, wow, if I type all the bad, then it will take your computor hours to load the page.

The AI doesn't move...not one inch.
Awful graphics for PC standards
No sound, at all
You don't have to worry about bridges, lamps, and buildings, you just drive right through them.
Tired of driving on a straight surface? you can drive even on a 90 degree angle on a mountain
Tired of the world? just drive into the mountains into a white screen of nothing
Tired of the laws of physics, Einstein's theory, and everything possible? Well you can go from o to 60 in reverse in two seconds, without a speed limit, and if you hold the button down long enough, you go the speed of light.
And that famous phrase when you win, "You're Winner", yes, I are winner.

This game is equal to this happening to you:
You are on your computor, it freezes, 30 bees come in the room. They sting, but just not enough to kill you, the honey attracts bears, and worst of all, the CD player is broken and it won't stop playing the same 80s metal song over and over. This game is just abysmal, and may God have mercy on its soul.

At first..

At first I never knew about this game till I read gamespot's review and saw their video review. Simply amazing, honestly, because the game is so horribly done. The "fun" factor is rated a 3 because I was converted into "funny factor". Rating this game however was a bit harder because lots of people enjoy this game because it's so bad and want to get their hands on it. This game was not made by "Cokem International Ltd.", in fact it was made by a russian group called "Stellar Stone". What do the russian's know about physic's? Well at least this group has no clues about it nor the english grammar. "You're Winner!" it presents everytime you win, but supposedly a newer release came out saying "You won!" or something of that nature.

Anyways what are the pro's and con's?

Pro's

- Funny Game to get a laugh factor, if you're serious about big rigging, buy another game.
- Groups called "WINNER!" are all around

Con's

- Bridges are non-existant
- Physic's are non-existant
- Back lights are not even attached!
- Cannot change key commands
- Going in reverse you have unlimited speed, let off the key and you instantly stop
- EVEN with the "patch" the AI finally moves but when it gets to the finish line it stops and does not pass it.
- Need a low low end computer to hear music
- One Map Crashes, but you can fix that with the patch.
- Semi's can go up 90 degree angled cliff's?

Did I buy this game? Yes, because I wanted to own the worst game ever made. That is correct, this game is beyond any other "bad" games ever made. I laugh at the back of the box because it says "....including the ultimate traffic stopper...a police roadblock" Which is made fun of alot because..there is no police.

A sheer work of art.

Simply one of the greatest digital experiences, nay, experiences PERIOD that I have ever experienced. Graphics jump out at you from the screen and hold your eyeballs in their grip. You'll dive out of your chair in response to your Rig nearly crashing into a tree or building, it's so realistic! Of course, the game gives you the avant-garde experience of passing THROUGH said obstacles. The musical score is a tremendously wonderful rendition of John Cage's "4:33", and brings tears to the eyes. The physics are amazing! You can do things you would never dream of being able to do, such as travelling at the speed of light, then instantly stopping with the touch of a button. Stellar Stone has crafted this vision for us, to show us what a perfect world would be. I can only hope that one day, mankind will find a way to make Stellar's visions work in real life. Play the game, and you'll be happy. I know I was!

Quite possibly among the best games of this generation.

The negative and sarcastic reviews this game upholds is because of its nominal association with other gaming developers wanting to ruin its outstanding glory by posting bad reviews of it.

Big rigs upholds some of the most amazing graphics of its year of release (2003), and can easily hold its own today.

The gameplay is phenominal, and the novel ideas it holds to creep up on you when enjoying its marvellous intensity. Gamepkay features realistic physics that both mimic an actual Peterbuilt 10345 based Semi and its pinnacle of a graphics engine make it look just as realistic.

The driver AI is hard, but possible to keep up with, but each race is challenging. Cops do an equal part in the game, reacting in near realistic ways. Keep your speed down though, and they won't be a match for you.

Once you have completed this stellar review, you will completely have a different outlook on life. Realizing how much worse your menial life was without this game. Buy it and cherish this title for years to come!

This game deserves negative stars. Unfortunatly, the lowest amount of stars I can give it, is one. If your looking for a game that involves racing trucks through different environments trying to beat the competition to the end point, a game thats fun, has a little bit of a challenge, involves some skill... Dont buy this game. There are only 4 trucks to choose from. The graphics are terrible. The actual gameplay sucks. You might like this game if you like being able to go from 0-60-0 miles per hour in two seconds up a verticle cliff. The game is so rediculously unrealistic. If you hold down the right or left button on the keyboard, you will spin around in that direction. You can fly off of mountains. When you go over the briges, you actually fall though them. You dont have to worry about obstacles, because you can drive right through them. And your "competition" doesnt even leave the starting gate, so you win every time. I dont know what idiot would buy this game, or give it anything more then one star. There isnt one good thing about this game. It sucks. If you're still convinced that this game could be good, go to this website- [...]
and read the review. also, scroll down to the bottom of the page and watch the video review. Seriously, you do not want this game.

YES!! I AM WON!
