This is the first
Test Drive I have ever played, but I got the feeling that it's basically the same as all the rest. For instance, game modes are a plenty with Time Trial, Arcade, V-Rally Trophy, and Rally Championships. With Time Trial, you race to beat your previous best time. In the Arcade mode, you must win to unlock other tracks to move on. In V-Rally Trophy and Rally Championship, you race against the computer in trying to win a certain trophy after placing in numerous races. The difference between the two is that Rally Championship is the more realistic with damage control, which actually affects your driving ability. The other really cool feature is the Track Editor, which lets you design your own track, right down to the turns and hills. The problem I found with this is that the directions on the screen are so small, you need a magnifying glass to read them. C'mon Infogrames, WE NEED TO BE ABLE READ!!!
With all these different game modes and features, you have 16 officially licensed 1999 rally cars with 10 bonus cars to play with, and more than 80 new tracks and special stages in more than 12 different countries. How much better can it get?
