Game Informer Review

In my imagination, driving a monster truck is the ultimate rush of power, as you heedlessly crush all cars and obstacles in your way. Unfortunately, in Monster 4X4, the rigs get hung up on everything from pylons to small picket fences, tip easily, and generally bounce all over the damn place like superballs. Basically, it's just like driving a crappy car except it's got big funny wheels and is hard to control. Given the nice graphics and fairly extensive career mode, I suspect some real care went into this game, so I'll acknowledge that the handling is probably "accurate." However, accurate fun. But, if you're the type of person who gives a rat's butt about the realistic replication of monster truck vehicle physics, this is your bag, baby!

This review is from: Monster 4X4: Masters of Metal (Video Game)

This game is great! First off the the trucks look just like thery do in real life! The tracks are great and the trucks handle prety much like they do in real life! The only problem I have withe this game is that you have to work to get Grave Digger. But overall this game is superb!

This game is really great. It features high flyin monster truck action. There are some good trucks in the game but not as many that were in the first one. And all the good ones are locked so you really have to challenge the game to not only unlock trucks but unlock tracks. Yes you will cause maximum destruction to the trucks and the obstacles and even the things on the track.
