Reviews for International Speedway (#2518)

Review by Raphie on 01 Jan 2010 (Rating: 2)

The game looked good at first but after a few more runs, reality kicks in and so does boredom.

The graphics are not overly good and the main drawback is there is no variety at all in the game, you race around the exact same track and as a result it gets old, boring and tedious very quickly There is playability in the game, but it dies quickly though.

Not atrocious but not good at all. Speedway fans should avoid this.

It may lack variety but it is speedway after all. The tracks are the same because the bikes have no brakes so therefore they can't manoeuvre around a proper track too well unlike a proper motorbike. My main problem is it's too easy to hit one of the other riders. It can get quite boring after a while but I still managed to find some enjoyment in this.

A bad motorbike race game. It's got nice music, though.

2/5

I don't know which is more shocking? That this was released in 1988, that it's branded as speedway or that Code Masters actually re-released this game four years later. It looks dated for 1988 let alone 1992 and its boring and repetitive gameplay will leave the avid fans unimpressed and the novice fans looking somewhere else for amusement in a hurry. Whittaker's music is the highlight, but even that gets old as quick as the whole game.
