4.0 out of 5 stars Simple yet addictive..., May 24, 2003

A port of an old Super Nintendo classic, Rock 'N Roll Racing is a fun, addictive racing game. However, don't think that this game is simply about racing. The vehicles are equipped with blasters, mines, oil-squirting machines, and rockets, among other things. Initially you being the game with a cheap, slow vehicle with few weapons. As you progress through the game, you earn money in order to buy weapons for your vehicle, or to buy a whole new vehicle. This is a great feature of the game, as it makes no two careers the same; everytime you play the game you can choose your path to victory. You can have a heavily equip a cheaper vehicle, or you can buy a better vehicle, but you will be unable to equip it with many weapons or armor.

The game uses a top down, isometric view of the race course. It feels like you are driving remote controlled vehicles, rather than some racing games that put you in the driver's seat. This is a unique view for a racing game, and it only helps the charm of Rock 'N Roll racing.

As one would assume, the multiplayer feature is fantastic. Nothing gives quite as much joy as blasting your friend right as he is about to cross the finish line.

Rock 'N Roll Racing is a game any avid Gameboy Advance player should own. It will provide you with countless hours of mindless fun.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent old school car combat!, June 27, 2003

This game was one of my favorite for the snes. In the game you buy cars and upgrade them with the money you win. Awesome soundtrack that includes Black Sabbath, Deep purple, George Thorogood, and more. Also good quotes by the announcer such as,"Snake unleashes hot fury!" This game was made by Blizzard before they had that name. Blizzard went on to make classics series' Warcraft, Starcraft, and Diablo. Playing this game multiplayer with a friend could be perhaps the most entertaining aspect, although single player is great as well. Highly recommended!

I remember way back in the old days when my friends and I would play this game all day long and fighting over who gets to be Olaf. Wow! Good times... If you loved the original then you will love this! Out of all of the games out there that they have remade and added to you'd think that they would have evolved this game in some way, or at least added a Part 2 to it. Anyways, it is a great game!
