First you need a memory pack or you have to start from scratch each time. There is no damage, but the cars feature a heavy sliding feel that the real street based GT cars of the mid 90's must have had. The tracks are all of the made up racing in the streets variety, as opposed to real racetracks, but the cars are based on real racers. If you actually follow GT racing all your favorites form the mid 90's are here. Porsches are Rages and Vipers are Venom's, but if you know what a Lister Storm is, then you'll figure it out. At the lower levels there is a Stallion that bears a strong resemblance to a Salean Mustang with a team owner that is not to far from a surfer dude version of Tim Allen. Nationalities are all wrong though; the Lotus clones are Italian for crying out loud.

i didn't like it!

I really didn't like this game. The steering stinks, The levels stink, and The cars are cool but are pretty slow.

Very Well Done

This is the best racing game on the N64 platform. The physics are excellent. (Which I cannot say about Gran Turismo) The only problem I had is doing six 5 lap races for one cup is too long and you can't split the races up. Oh and the graphics are extremely good especially considering it does not use the expansion pack.

I have had more fun with a bag of sharp glass.

The creators of this game wasted great graphics on a game with not enough depth. The only time I had fun playing this is when I paused it and took a nap and had a dream about Pamela Anderson. There weren't any guns and the game was way to hard.

This is the best I've ever played.

I don't know how I would improve this game - it is the most addicting and exciting I have ever played. The handling characteristics are extremely realistic; be thankful that the cars can't be damaged because there is a lot of bumping and banging involved. If you like racing, this is the one.

Whatch that tail-end swing!

This game is the best driving game ever. You can do realistic straight line braking and downshifting (you WILL need to learn to brake to win races), apex your turns to conserve speed, and powerslide around other racers through curves. Stop reading this review and go buy the game right now!

best darn racing game around!

This is a great game. i got it today. It has surperiorgraphics. It handles like a real car. It lets you do all the work, not like all those sissy racing games with graphics that suck and make the game easy which makes it very boring,this game is so addictive, it should be illegale. Buy it!

Most realistic Racer yet! But not for the Causual player!

WDC is truly a great racing game it is visually stunning and the car control is very realistic. A nice break from Rush and other 64 racers. The main theme of the game is to gain as many points as you can in order to obtain a higher driver ranking and be offered "better" rides. Just because they are better doesn't mean that they are faster. The graphics are great and the way that each car handles does take some getting used to; but it is well worth it. The replay value of this game is high and the other drivers do give you a run for your money. It could use a pit aspect as well as the ability to try and adjust your ride out( the game has neither) but all in all it is a very complete racing game. As a racing fan I would recommend this game to anyone shopping for a racing challange. I would not recommend this game for persons who don't have the time to get to know the cars or the tracks. These two things are paramont if you are to be successfull in climbing the ranks and becoming a World Champion Driver.

Fun, but lacks realism

World Driver Championship certainly is more realistic than many of the racing games out there, but it is in a no way a simulator. The graphics are great and the game itself is a lot of fun, but there are two major downsides. First, your car can't be damaged. This alone makes the game much easier since you don't have to be as precise in your driving. Second, to get anywhere in the game you need to own a controller pak. If you don't have one this game isn't worth owning since you won't be able to play most of it.
