This game is twenty years old, but it's still one of the best racing games I've ever played. I recently replayed it on my PS2 about a year ago, and I have yet to find another racing game that's as satisfying to play as this one. Despite its age, the controls are as smooth as butter. It has one of the best soundtracks out there, composed by actual rock stars. I've sunk countless hours into this game, and will sink even more in the future. I'd gladly play this over Mario Kart any day!

I honestly was disappointed by the gameplay at first, but I grow fond of it since it was quite fun, challenging. And ofc, how could I not like the plot, the characters and stuff! Despite the desastrous development in which devs were put in difficulty with the stupid decisions from above, the game still is a gem IMO.
Probably one of the coolest combat racing games I've ever played. The music, the aesthetics, the characters, it's like a time capsule of what was "Cool" in the 2000s. I'd love to see this game on a modern game store with PC support, though I doubt Sony will ever agree to their old games being re-released
