Test drive 4 torrent

As an extra bonus, the map view of the island is done with an approach similar to Google Earth. It gives an excellent feel for the size of the island and gives the game a strong sense of realism. Test Drive Unlimited definitely sets this game up well, but the ultimate success of it depends of the gameplay.

The good news is that the gameplay is solid with only a few bumps in the road. Most of the gameplay will meet your expectations. Aspects such as the control of the different cars which are rewarding to drive, the different cars handling noticeably, well different, and the AI reacting to your movements all gives the races some flare.

Probably the most notable deficiency is it's hard to get a sense of the speed you're driving at. Whether you're going 40 mph or 90 mph, it was hard to really tell a prominent difference.

The video and audio aren't going to take you places you haven't been before. The video does justice for next-gen expectations with detailed cars and beautifully rendered environments on Oahu but the audio is slightly lacking as it misses the mark on realistic sound effects.

Overall, Test Drive Unlimited racing fans will more then get their money out of this game. It flows well, plays well, and has high replay value. Unlimited, set across an open-ended Hawaii, tries to change that hierarchy, but it still feels like we've been there and done that.

It's possible that the online action could add some much-needed character. Screw island fever get behind the wheel or handlebars of more than customizable licensed vehicles and enjoy 1,plus miles of pavement in sunny Oahu, Hawaii. Keep your online and you'll find competitors popping up all over this free-driving vacation destination. Browse games Game Portals.

You can race state-of-the-art supercars versus the old muscle cars of the '6os in this game. The idea is very cool, but unfortunately, the game becomes boring very quickly. There are plenty of different options and modes of play, but no matter which I tried, the action didn't draw me in. This game has all the extra depth, but doesn't concentrate enough on gameplay. Test Drive 4 is a solid racer with some minor problems.

The courses are designed really well, the graphics are nice minus the random unsightly pop-up and the engine sounds and music fit the game well. The problem is it seems like if you crash just once during a race--not even a really bad crash--you're guaranteed at least fourth place or worse.

That just seems unfair. It's a good game, but may not endure the test of time. Recovering from its tire-shredding wipeout with Test Drive: Off-Road, Accolade's back on track with Test Drive 4, an extremely promising road racer that has the potential to become the game that Need for Speed II should've been. Drivers choose from five exotic speedsters and five 70s muscle cars, then dodge cops and slow-moving traffic while blasting through six point-to-point courses not circuits modeled after real-life locations like San Francisco and Kyoto.

Even at this early stage, TD4 sports the kind of sweet handling that'll glue race fans to the wheel--especially those disappointed by Need for Speed II.

The game's mouth-wateringly slick cars and courses only add to TD4's allure. If Accolade corrects the trouble spots in this unfinished version, including the draw-in problems, TD4 could rule the roads. Beauty vs. These describe the idea behind Test Drive 4. Race all your old classic muscle cars and your favorite new cars. Looking at the box, you can tell one thing: they probably didn't work directly with these cars, as had been the case with the Need for Speed series from EA Sports.

How can you tell, you ask? I'm a big fan of both cars and it's a joke to think that the ones on the box even might be real. So, with that on my mind, I set to work. The next thing I see is that is wants megs of my hard drive! If you have a 3Dfx card, it will want There are still plenty of us who don't have 3Dfx cards.

There are some game makers like LucasArts who know this and develop games for all of us to play, not just 3Dfx users. First of all, there is absolutely no customization to the controls. I like to use my joystick's X axis for steering, trigger for acceleration, and a thumb button for braking.

Not possible with TD4. Your choices are: Gravis pad, keyboard, joystick, etc. The joystick's controls are set for using the X axis for steering and Y for accelerate and brake. Basically, you have to hold the stick forward to accelerate, which I find really annoying.

So, stuck with the keyboard arrow keys, I started my first race. Let me tell you that the very touchy steering in the game and the forced use of arrow keys to steer are a lethal combination when you start going top speed in your car; spin-outs and crashes are common and irritating.

The cars in TD4 are pretty nice, but some don't even belong in the game. The ZX is too slow to compete with other cars along with the 'cuda.

It's one of those games where there is a one-best-car, and no other close competition. In most racing games the cars are pretty well matched-up, some turn better than others but aren't as fast, etc, but not in TD4. Basically you always just pick the best fastest car and you always race against 6 cars at a time, and the fastest car almost always wins once you get the arrow key controls down.

That's it. As for the tracks, they do have a new feature that I've not seen in many racing games -- weather. To tell you the truth, though, it's just lines for rain and white dots for snow.

It doesn't really do much for me, or for the game. Not that I expected anything more. There are 6 tracks in all, but you can get another 6 unlocked through competition or a cheat code. The other 6 aren't that great; in fact, they're not even new tracks, but just going the other direction on the previous tracks. Another complaint, the lane markers were not very visible, which causes head-on accidents if you're not sure where you are.

And the police in the game are a joke! In the first Need for Speed they chased you down and gave you a ticket, and the only thing that kept them from catching you was your driving; if you messed up, you were caught. Here, the police are much faster than you and they don't give you tickets!

All you have to do is come to a full and complete stop. Hey, I want an incentive to run from the copper, like being arrested after a certain amount of tickets. For all the hard drive space it takes up, the graphics weren't that good.

On high resolution it looked as good as other racing games that used half the hard drive space. Then there's the Challenge Cup, where you fight for the lowest cumulative time over 6 races. The Pitbull Cup again sees you running on 6 tracks, only this time you have to finish first on each before you advance to the next. The most complicated of all is the Masters Cup, in which you ride in ten different cars over ten different tracks in an effort to gain the lowest cumulative time. Finally, there is a "drag race" mode, in which you choose two, possibly identical, cars for a quarter mile drag, with manual shifting only.

This can be quite fun when played with a friend, especially as simply pressing the gas pedal before time will only result in revving too high and losing time in a long power-wheelspin. The fun is almost immediately ruined, though, when you realize that you have to spend a minute going through all the menus before each second drag race, instead of simply restarting. All in all, there are 12 tracks, and the funny thing is that none of the above really has any relation to actually unlocking the "hidden" tracks.

You simply have to win a single race at each of the first six to unlock its last 6 counterpart. No, the aim of all these championships is to place on the high scores table, which is as purely arcade as they come. Oh, and also, eventually, to unlock secret cars. Test Drive 4 could have redeemed itself if it had great gameplay. Unfortunately, it does not. Racing using a keyboard is never even close to being realistic.

We all know that, but a good game makes us feel good enough that we are willing to believe otherwise. TD4 on the other hand, left me a bitter taste of dissatisfaction. There are several reasons for that. The first is the non-existence of any damage model whatsoever. The only bad effect of crashing is losing time- and in a game where your computer opponents usually drive very accurately, and in which the races are relatively short, losing time is not a good thing to do.

But that's it- no blown tires, no overheated engine, no slowdown, and you go on racing even if you hit a brick wall at over KPH. You don't even see dents in your car. It must be all those new aluminum alloys.

The second, and most important reason, is the driving model. The Accolade team, please, I have a suggestion: take an advanced driving course. Preferably in Europe, if you can. You see, it is simply not true that a car will only stop spinning, sliding, or otherwise doing undesirable things related to controlling it, when you press the brakes. No, really. In fact, I know this may come as a shock to you, Accolade team, but pressing the brakes in the middle of a corner when your car starts losing grip is almost always going to send you to your death.

You know what? I'll settle for a basic driving course. Test Drive 4 has, and I want to make this absolutely clear, the most pathetic, far from real life driving engine I have encountered in a PC racing game in the last two years. No matter what happens, if you were going too fast, the ONLY way to fix your error is to first slam on the brakes, and then think. I don't know what they had in mind, but I had a nagging feeling that my mom designed that model.

It is not only ridiculous, but also dangerous, as it may actually make some young kid who doesn't have a driving license yet believe that this is how real cars behave. Locking your wheel in the other direction? Or at least, it loses speed so slowly that you may think you are riding on ice. No, no.
