Graphics are nice - satisfying explosions, good dust storms, nice landscapes, etc. and there are lots of atmospheric touches (like the retro style loading screen and menu design).

9 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The futuristic, 1980s vibe is awesome - the car designs are fun, and the soundtrack has that eerie, 80s synth, apocalyptic suspense feel to it.
