If you like 4x4 evolution 1 or just like racing get this game. it has stunning graphics and almost too big of levels. I tested out this game at Toys R Us and it was great. on one of the levels they let you go so much off the track that i acually go lost. Definetly get this game if you like racing games.(...)

4x4 Evo II: it's like the first, only better...

I own a Dreamcast. I also own 4x4 Evolution for it. The Dreamcast magazine writers gave it a bad rating too, who cares. I bought it and couldn't put it down, awesome game for Dreamcast, only thing missing is what is in the X-box version of the game which I now have...Jeeps! This game pretty much has every SUV you can think of and so much more. Also you can put lift-kits onto your SUV, super charge it, and much much more. It's like Gran Turismo with SUV's and (in my opinion) better graphics and more fun. You can drive anywhere you want to on a level, just go exploring. Or heres another idea, play a 2 player race with a buddy and play "tag", the game is so expansive you can and will get lost. Great game, although does get very hard once you SuperCharge your car. When you upgrade your vehicle, your fellow racers get the same upgrade.
Stars:
Graphics - ***** 5 Outstanding Visuals
Control - **** /* 4.5 Great responsive controls
Sound - **** /* 4.5 Nice sound for a racing game, can get repetitive though...
Replay Value - ***** 5 Challenging game with much to do will keep true racing fans glued to the game for a long time.
Overall - ***** 5 Stars. The Best Off-Road SUV racing game. Period.

Get it, you like it

Listen, the first review is from a kid that doesn't have the game, and is basing his opinion on a bad review he read in a magazine.

This review is from someone who owns the game. It is awesome. If you like racing, or off-roading, get it. It has a career mode similar to GT, and some really fun adventures where you have goals that are all 4x4 related.

Ton of fun. Heck with the "real" reviews. This is a game for the people.

This game will make you bang your head on the ground.

In all honesty. I wouldn't recommend this game to anyone. I bought it thinking that they would have fixed the problems with the first one. But nevertheless I was wrong. Just for the simple fact that the vehicles collision problems ruin the game I would not recommend this game. It could have been a decent game but that problem alon ruins it.

great game

when i bought x box on launch day, i bought two games, halo and 4x4 evo 2. i bought halo because of the hype, and 4x4 evo 2 because the first game rocked. This game easily surpasses the old game, with many new parts, racing teams, and the addition of the Jeep brand SUVs. There is one key element that makes this game unique- you have a usable winch. the winch really helps out in missions where you are almost to the top of the hill and you just cant seem to get much traction. You then get crosshairs and aim at a tree, and if your winch is good enough to go the distance, you fire and pull yourself up. The addition of teams adds much more depth to the game, as you must try out for them in order to get special parts and cars. This game is just overall greatness, if you like test drive off-road, its time for you to play a real off-road race game, get 4x4 evo 2.

What? I can drive through a lake? c'mon

I hate it because the cops chase me if i go a teensy weensy bit too fast, I can drive through large amounts of water, and the camera angles don't let me see over the humongous hood of my SUV, so i hit the walls every time i get into a tight space. AARGH. The Graphics can't save you now, Gathering.

THIS GAME IS (...)

DUDE I LIKE RACING GAMES BUT THIS ONE BLOWS. THE GRAPHICS COULD HAVE BEEN WAY BETTER THEY TOOK NO TIME INTO WHAT THEY WERE DOING THE SOUNDS LIKE YOU HAVE HEAR FROM OTHER REVIEWS (...) TOO. THEY GET SO REPETATIVE THAT I JUST WANNA SHOOT THE TV. THERE ARN'T ENOUGH MODES IN THE GAME AND THERE ARN'T ENOUGH COOL UNLOCKABLES. THE CONTROLS ARE OK BUT YOU HAVE TO GET GOOD AT THE BREAKING SYSTEM OR YOU ARE (...) FOREVER CAUSE YOU SPIN OUT ALL THE TIME... DUDE IF YOU ARE A NOVICE JUST LOKING FOR A GOOD RACING GAME THEN GO GET PROJECT GOTHEM CAUSE THIS GAME IS NOT FUN AND WILL MAKE YOU SICK AFTER ABOUT 15 MINUTES... TRUST MEEH THIS IS A WASTE OF MONEY BUT IF YOU DON'T BELIVE MEEH THEN JUST RENT IT FIRST AND THEN GO BUT IT IF YOU THINK IT IS WORTH YOUR WHILE.... PEACE OUT

It's too bad that I cannot give it ZERO stars

This game is the worst that I have played. It seems as if the designers decided to make an XBox game three days before release.

Here are the problems. In racing mode the AI is inconsistent, if you get close to a competitor it speeds up, and vice versa. Also, unless you use shortcuts you can never beat the computer head to head. Very frustrating.

Part of the career mode is completing missions for money. Now this is a great idea but the missions are pathetic. By the time you complete one you will be bangining your head against the screen. Some missions focus on finding people or things given a shoddy and incomplete map. It is impossible and I don't think that it is even in the code to be able to complete some of these missions.

Bottom line: save your money and don't bother even renting this game. It is horrible! If you want a decent off-road game go with Test Drive.

Awesome Game
