The best game ever is this one. With awsome 3D graphics. With the best boats and tracks, including bonus tracks and boats to win. plus even more extra boats on the tracks for fun like cruise ships. Animals and people are also in it for example killer wales and eskemos in the alaska track. The place I played this game was at a bowling party. I would give this game six stars instead of five. I would highly recommend this game for anybody who likes boats or racing.

Hydro Thunder!

I first played this at a pizza place arcade and it is AMAZING!!!! It's fun to try out interesting new tracks and boats and it's virtually impossible to get tired of doing the same track because there are always new shortcuts to find.I heard that they aren't going to make them anymore. Get this game while you can because it is the best of the best! P.S. Also try Arctic Thunder by the same company.

GREAT GAME!!!!!!!

I bought this game after playing it at a local arcade. This game is incredible!!! Some of the best graphics I have ever seen! The tracks are great, with hidden shortcuts and boosters evrywhwere. You start out with three different speedboats that are loyal throughout the whole game, then as you get better and start beating the tracks in 1st 2nd or 3rd you start getting amazing tracks from Lake Powell to New York. after you get the easy mediun and hard levels and boats, You can try your luck and go for the bonus tracks and boats, which are extremely fun ranging from a fishing boat to a armed responce ship, and the tracks like Nile Adventure which will blow your mind.

Getting there, but the game still has some flaws to work out

Having played this game in the arcade, I went out and got it for my N64. I wasn't very surprised at how the game ran, because I had played it before, but I was a bit disappointed in the graphics. I was using an Expansion Pak and I thought they could still be better. Althought the boats and courses are very interesting, most of your time is spent trying to beat them. The easy levels are far too easy, and then the medium levels get dramatically hard. The hard levels are basically impossible except for New York Disaster. Although I do like all the boats you can get, my personal favorites are Razorback, Rad Hazard, and Tidal Blade. What is also good is that you can adjust the camera angle any way you want to, so once you find the right view for you, you won't be bothered by the game. The courses are well designed with lots of shortcuts, but it gets very annoying trying to beat them. I really like the way the police that chase you in the Far East, The Greek Isles, and Venice Canals all speak in a different language, so it makes them sound funny. There are also major drops like the ones in Lake Powell that are extremely fun to manuver. The point is, the game is fun, but it could have been better.

PS: You will need a Memory Card to save your data.

This game overwhelms the stock of racing games availible for the N64! To start off - the 1st look at this game is amazing!The graphics are incredible, true to the arcade. The contol is amazing! The responce acts just as would want.The track and boat design are very intinuitive and ingenius in a way. As you start off, the three begining boats look ok, but the 'Lost Island' and 'Artic Circle' courses are a blast - 'Hydro Speedway'is alright. The medium tracks get a little better and longer. The medium boats are considerably better. The hard tracks are as labled - H A R D ! ! ! One of the hard boats cool - Rad Hazard. Cutt Throught is alright, but Razorback handles horribly! But if you manage to get to bonus stages - you will be rewarded for your efforts! The first three bonus courses are ok - but Nile Adventure will blow away! If find some of the secret areas - they will take into the truth of how the ancient pyramids were constucted. The bonus boats are also great! This game is definatlly THE GAME TO GET! If you want fast-paced racing excitement - look no further than HYDRO THUNDER!

OK

The game was fun but the graphics weren't the best I have seen. The only really bad thing about it was when you are playing multiplayer mode you can't zoom in or out. You always stay at a cockpit view. But other than that the game was fun and challenging
