Jet Moto 2
Review from the Net
Jet Moto 2 is the sequel to last years Christmas blockbuster Jet Moto. Jet Moto is a well done 3d all terrain racing game that takes all the faults of last years game and improves upon the weaknesses to make a great racing game. Graphics: 9.0/10 The graphics in this game are well above average and a definite improvement over the original. Beautiful graphics and smooth animation give you a feeling of being there whether your falling down an open pit or avoiding rocks and trees in dark murky water. The only problem in the graphics is when you find areas just off the track that seemed to be neglected when the programmers created this game. This game was much more of a problem in last years version but still exists in this sequal. This shouldn't take away much from the fun of the game. Music/Sound FX: 8.5/10 The action packed music that gets your blood moving is a definite strong point in a very good overall game and works quite nicely with the mood of the game. Each song goes well with the track they are with and will certainly not make you want to hit the mute button. The Sound FX are a little weak and leave something to be desired. The scream of the rider falling or the grunt of a rider colliding with a tree or rock etc. are alright but will not jump out and amaze you. Control: 9.0/10 The control in this game is some of the best around whether your racing in digital or analog modes. The control is a little tight and will be aggrevating when you first start but once you get a little used to it you will love the control. The controls consist of the thrust, grapple(defined later), turbo, Roll, Quick turn, and the brake. The grapple for those new to the Jet series is a purple colored beam that grabs to a pole of the same color and pulls you to the pole, quite useful when going too fast on a turn and also when you get too much air. One last note that is quite meaningful to the overall quality of the game is the TRUE PHYSICS. One example of the TRUE PHYSICS is the strong current. There are others to be found in the game but that's one fine example. Fun: 8.5/10 In both one and two player modes, this game is a whole lot of fun and will not be collecting dust on your shelf within a week. The tough difficulty will make those last cources hard to get and will bring you back for more and more, alot like the first. It will bring you back again and again which is alot like the original. Other Features: Ten action packed cources Ten different riders with different attributes Real Physics Beautiful polygon graphics Different terrains such as water, mud, snow, ice, asphault, and dirt Analog and Digital control Bottom line: This is a very well designed game with only a couple of flaws that won't take away much of the fun If you are a fan of the original, fan of racing games, or fan of multiplayer games then this game is meant for you. A definite must have for almost every Playstation owner out there. Send comments of question to dcrice@ptd.net
