Very realistic handling characteristics, excellent graphics. It's fun to crash or dump the driver just to hear their comments and ouches. Only (same old tired) drawback is that many of the tracks are locked out. You have to go through the usual career mode foolishness to get all of YOUR game useable. So far I've not been able to find unlock cheat codes listed for the XBOX version. One nice feature is the "free ride" mode, where you can race a course or drive around all you want. This Atari game has the same realistic handling and graphics as "Test Drive: Eve of Destruction" (also Atari). 1 to 4 players.

this game is a lot of fun. While you can beat it in less then 1 week you will probably play it a few times.
Very Realistic Game

I love this game. The Key West track is worth the ... price tag alone. Extremely realistic water effects. I give it 4 stars as there are only 2 tracks that utilize the power of the X-Box. The remaining tracks are impressive but appear to be identical to the Playstation 2 version. Still a great game!

I just have to say that this is the best racing/jet ski game EVER. It has GREAT graphics and so many things you can choose from. You can unlock different races, wetsuits, jet-skis, and teammates. You can customize your music to suit YOUR mood. The water is realistic and the races are fun in any mode! This is a must have for ALL X-Box Owners!
Lot of fun

I think Splashdown is a great addition to the xbox game base. I bout it recently and have been completely satisfied. The graphics are incredible, and the challenge races are tons of fun. However, if you do not like games about racing seadoos then don't get this game, duh. For anyone who likes the water or boats, I definately support this game!

Splashdown has decent graphics with good water textures, but it lacks gameplay. You can choose to race sea-doos, play countdown mode(which [is bad]), or enjoy free ride. The lack of gameplay makes this game get boring after a couple of days. I would not suggest for anyone to rush out and buy this title. I wish I would have rented this one before I purchased it.

I rented this game, and yes the graphics are nice and the gameplay is acceptable. If you like water games, get this game. However, I still like WaveRace64 better. For some reason it has a much greater fun factor and still rules the roost in my opinion.
A good family game.

Okay, there are plenty of games that are more exciting out there, but this is a really nice family game to have. It is good, clean, and fun. The graphics are good (but not great) and the physics are for the most part realistic and believable. The controls are easy to pick up and the tricks are fairly easy to complete. Splashdown contains a good mix of upbeat music and the gameplay should keep you occupied for a decent amount of time. Just remember, although the game is fun, don't expect a heart-pounding, adrenaline-producing experience.
