Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
46 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The number of levels is quite low, but they are nice to look at and come with changing visuals in some modes.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
45 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Knowing this, you can play the game with up to 7 other people on any of the tracks and game modes. the matches I had were a lot of fun but there is a bit of a risk of a runaway leader, meaning that once a person builds a small lead, it can become impossible to recover if other players don't notice this (or if you are just amazing).
Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
35 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Another thing, this game is best suited to play with a controller.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
34 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Worth a buy, for those who enjoy challenging air-combat & speedy racing.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
28 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Doubly so if you have a couple of friends to play with.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
24 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It has good sense of speed, the items are a litle generic but work nicely, the AI is surprisingly fair (though on the hardest difficulty it does seem a little less so) and the challenge seems adequate for what it is.
