Cruising along mountain roads in a '98 Dodge Viper or '69 Chevrolet Corvette remains a dream for most Americans. If you share that dream, you'll want to check out Accolade's Test Drive 5, the fifth title in the long-standing driving series.

Included in the package are 14 modern exotic and 14 vintage muscle cars for use on 18 tracks, accurately recreating some of the world's most exciting driving locales. Some of the other playable cars include the '98 Jaguar XKR, '71 Plymouth Barracuda, '67 Pontiac GTO, '98 Aston Martin Advantage, and the '68 Ford Mustang.

Various game styles round out Test Drive 5's decent racing offering. Drivers can compete in a single race or test skills across multiple leagues. Test Drive 5 also offers a new "cop chase" mode where players assume the role of a police officer and attempt to pull over any speeding racers; there's also a split-screen mode for head-to-head racing competition. Along with extensive play modes, Test Drive 5 also includes plenty of candy for the senses with realistic rain and snow effects, night driving, and a pumping soundtrack featuring Fear Factory and KMFDM. If you're dreaming of solid arcade-style racing action, Test Drive 5 offers many sleepless hours of enjoyment. --Doug Radcliffe

5.0 out of 5 stars I love this game, July 14, 2000

This review is from: Test Drive 5 (CD-ROM)

The cars are cool,fast and awsome. My favorite,the Viper GTS-R beats all odds to save the day.Edinburgh,Scottland is probably the best track in the game with its massive jumps near the end.Or maybe it's San Fransisco with its masive jumps.Thank you infogrames.

Test Drive 5 is an awesome game with lots of cool cars, tracks,and modes to play in. It has cars and tracks that can be uncovered bywinning championships, and even backwards tracks. The graphics are awesome. The soundtrack is one of the best parts, with Pitchshifter, Gravity Kills, KMFDM, Junkie XL, and more. The game is very good. Buy it if you like car racing.

Five starz! * * * * *

Especially if you get if for the Playstation. Fast, furious fun that might be downplayed on slower computers. It all depends on your computer, otherwise look for the Playstation version.
