The only thing I really like about this game is the track editor. If Wipeout Pure had that feature it'd pwn.

FINALLY, a new game in newzealand to add to the original line up, gta, and a very small handful of junk. it's piss poor the amount of games that either don't make it here or get ridiculously delayed. i'd not buy this out of protest, but then we'd get even les...

The above poster is a genius! :P


I agree. We still havent received many games that the US have and when we do, they will probably be hellishly over priced...

The reson why this game is in NZ first is coz the company that makes it is a wellington based company...

WARNING:

This is not a kart-racing game, it is a kart-platforming puzzler. Just keep an open mind when it comes to the gameplay(and physics) and you should be pleased. Also, this is a very good "portable" game. Its really not like a console game that most other PSP games come off as, this is a great game designed for a portable system.
