Editorial Review

Rev up your snow-hog. Electronic Arts is speeding off the asphalt and into the tree line with its latest racing title, Sled Storm. Snowmobile racing may seem like a last-stab attempt at creating a new racing game for the PlayStation, but the result is irresistible and addictive.

Sled Storm lets players control their riders' turns by leaning them right or left to take sharp corners without flipping over the mechanized beasts. The game does a fantastic job of depicting the weight of these vehicles as they careen off jumps and plummet like boulders. Stay off the brakes, seek out shortcuts, learn trick moves to earn extra points, and plow over anything on the course that looks suspiciously cute--such as snowmen or bunnies (for bonus points). Point totals at the end of the race can be converted to cash for sled upgrades. That's about all you need to know to compete.

With songs by goth-rock god Rob Zombie, Sled Storm offers a winter wonderland full of racing fun. A four-player split-screen mode is the best way to play the game, but the artificial intelligence (AI) in the one-player games is realistic enough to give players some decent competition. Forgo your inhibitions and ride, baby, ride! --Jeff Young

Pros:

• The first snowmobile racing experience on any video game platform
• Deep one-player championship mode encourages many hours of playing and replaying

Cons:

• Not very original--another racing game for the PlayStation

5.0 out of 5 stars Sled Storm- If it isn't snowing out, you'll wish it was!, November 24, 1999

This review is from: Sled Storm (Video Game)

This is an excellent racing game. The challenges are progressive. Building on prior success allows greater attributes of the game to become available. Bad news is you must be successful for a series of races to achieve the next plateau. Without completion there is no way to save your progress...back to the beginning. For you SLED lovers you'll wish you were out on the trails rather than at home. But if you can ride why not FLY with Sled Storm. The ariels the players can perform will leave you wishing you were sixteen again!

This game is very fun for all ages. It has many different modes and sleds. I love this game. I was hooked to it when I started playing. With so many different courses and tricks, it is easy to enjoy it. You can build up the sleds to better ones. You can unlock people and courses. Racing against the computer or 3 other friends brings endless fun. I would recommend getting this great, must get!
