One of my favorite games on the Super Nintendo was a highly underrated combat racing game by Interplay entitled Rock And Roll Racing. Back in the day, I must have played this game an hour a day, maybe more! How does this game measure up? Read on for my review.
PROS:
-The soundtrack is one of the greatest things about this game, as the title may have implied. You get instrumental versions of rock classics, like Steppenwolf's Born To Be Wild, Deep Purple's Highway Star, George Thorogood's Bad To The Bone, Black Sabbath's Paranoid, and others.
-Although this was a Super Nintendo racing game, it is most definitely no Super Mario Kart clone. This game focuses just as much on action as it does driving.
-There are a number of different vehicles, stages, and characters. There is even a hidden level and a hidden character - Olaf from The Lost Vikings!
-There's a two-player mode.
CONS:
-Rather obviously, the songs aren't performed by the original artists.
-The learning curve is quite steep when compared to similar games.
-The semi-overhead view won't appeal to everybody.
-No four player mode.
OVERALL:
Obviously this game isn't perfect, but it's still one of the masterpieces of the Super Nintendo. If you have a Super Nintendo or a Game Boy Advance, I strongly recommend this game, as it was one of Interplay's greatest triumphs.
