3.0 out of 5 stars Rent Before Buying, September 16, 2002

You may be thinking, "This is a good price for an Xbox game". Well think again, because renting this game is an even better price.

You'll get tired of the one player Career mode rather quickly. Some levels are a breeze to get through, and some are a pain and are just plain stupid (like hitting all the crates without hitting any of the glowing bowling pins). As soon as you beat the levels, you won't go back to replay them and will only be itching for some multiplayer action. Multiplayer is definetely fun and is the only thing worth owning the game for.

Totaled! does take advantage of your Xbox soundtracks so you don't have to listen to their horrible songs.

Bottom line: Rent it to beat the levels, or buy it to play with your friends.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Great Gaming Value, August 23, 2002

The only real negative buzz I heard about this game prior to release was that there were way too many loads and that you would spend more time waiting for screens to load than playing them. This is somewhat accurate. Perhaps this is why it came out with a [relatively low] price tag, but negative buzz has not stopped publishers and retailers from charging [more money] before. Whatever the reason, I am glad that it did. This is a gaming value that I have not seen in many years. The ONLY reason I bought it instead of renting it was because of its reasonable price. The graphics are good, the physics engine excellent, and it is the best damage and collision modeling I have ever seen. We XBOXers complain when games, such as Halo for example, allow 4 players but do not allow you to add in sims as well. This game does allow that, but it may be the main reason it takes so much load time. It would not be so bad if it did not take a long time to load after EVERY game or level. If you do not complete the objective or just want to replay the same level for fun... you guessed it- another long load time. It is annoying and a big reason why this reviewer will not give it higher than a 4. However, once it loads, it is tremendous crash 'em up fun. There are many different types of gameplay such as Last Man Standing, Hunter, Free for All, etc. There are stunt venues, race arenas and even high-speed fun in a parking garage. If you like driving games and you like smashing into other cars and taking some serious lumps yourself, then this game is for you- especially at [the price].

This game is one of the most underplayed game i have ever seen for the Xbox. This game is awesome in almost every way!
The Controls are easy to figure out, Easy for beginners.

The soundtrack on this game is [not good], But you can rip your own music from the Xbox and put it on this, so you dont have to listen to this...soundtrack.

Cars and tracks are awesome in graphic detail. Your car reflects the sun on it, If you hit someone you will damage his car and slightly damage your car from impact. So much damage in this game.

Some sounds in this game could be better(Alot of Engines sound the same, Even though they should not...
