Nov. 2024

I don't really know how to put into words how exhilarating this game made me feel. Genuinely the most fun I've personally had in a racing game ever. You'd think the powerplays are the most intense things about the game, but it's also the really creative route changers and even the amazing soundtrack. I know that some people may hate the driving physics of the game, but I find it adds a layer of strategy and reward getting your drifts right or getting your car under control and not plummeting into a wall due to an explosion's shock-wave.

Overall: as well said by GameSpot: "This ... arcade racer may have only one trick up its sleeve, but it's a really good trick." It's so sad to see this (and the company) fall by the wayside. I'd recommend any arcade racer gamer to play the game at least once. It's worth the experience. Played this a lot on the Xbox 360, decided to get the PC port. If you can somehow play it on console, do that instead; it's less of a headache. No sales for it anymore. Gameplay: + power plays and shortcuts are satisfying - campaign is short, will last you an extended weekend + absolutely succeeds in feeling cinematic - replay value is low once you get to know the maps ? some of the hardest time trials I've played since "Mirror's Edge: Catalyst." Videos help, and some cars are better than others. But you will make it by literally milliseconds. If you love time trials, extra replay value. Graphics: + runs smoothly - 30 fps cap, tied to physics unfortunately (a mod increases it to 60fps, no issues) (I also used "Lossless Scaling" on Steam to add frame interpolation for 180fps, far better) - aspect ratio weirdness - I'm on an ultrawide, and the game prefers to stick to 16:9 or 4:3 + great sound effects, music is epic (albeit repetitive)

Great game if you can get it working. For a long time I couldn't get this game to run. Now, somehow, it runs, but my controller doesn't work with this game. It's sad to see this game have these issues, but as soon as these issues are fixed, I'll be playing again.

Sept. 2024

Heads up about this game: the PC port is incredibly broken and even lacks official controller support. For the best experience, buy the console version. The game itself is incredibly good, and it's a shame Disney had to shut down development on the sequel.

This is Split/Second! I like this game - game from my childhood, especially in fact, that this game is one of the few, which worked not bad on previous old pc with Pentium 4/ATI Radeon HD3650/3GB DDR3. Now I decided rapidly walk through the career, refreshing old memories with high resolution and stable framerate. And I really like it! Pros: + Graphics: even now it looks decent, textures and object detatiling may be getting old + Gameplay: it's fun and simple + Design: cars look luxury and stylish, maps have thick environment with objects and background + Simplicity: open and play, easy to everyone + Uniqueness: no more racing arcades can deliver you such a vibe of tremendous action show Cons: + Physics: strange and feels like as being on ice rink, Ruback Cyclone RS is the most controlled grip car + Music: not bad, but monotonous (i appreciate main theme) + Content quantity: few cars, few maps, few modes, you could be bored pretty early + 30 FPS: It's the biggest mistake to cut off massive chunk of visual dynamics, but may be in 2010 it was enough, because of specs in those times 7 powerplays out of 10
