|
 |
Jacked! is a new game thats been released on the xbox. Its been listed on consolenews for a few days now, nforce seems to have fallen behind again.
Its a small game, about 12x50mb (ish) and basically, if you can imagine a mix between Road Rash on the old 16 bits, and Burnout on the current machines, you aren't far off.
You race in different types of event, ranging from straight races, to gang battles (capture the flag), to simply chasing a guy and nicking his bike off him.
I think its pretty damn good myself, played it for a few hours earlier on, and liked it alot.
7/10 I'll give it.

I didn't like it at first, but its fun for a while once you get used to the controls, and tuning the other bikers in.
Maybe i'm just bored and appreciating any game to play at the mo!

the games looks shite and plays the same anyone that actually plays this has no taste in games whatsoever.
As for framerate, the 360 version runs smooth, while the PS3 is a jaggy mess that chugs along in slow motion.

I haven't stolen your words. I'm not sad enough to be watching your threads. I said it because there was 3 inches of snow at the time of posting.

I tryed this briefly this afternoon russ_beer and it was alot better than I originally expected it would have been, however:-
1. Speed Kings is sooo much better
2. I don't know if Jacked is being published as a budget game but it would seem more suited to that market.
3. The cornering is a little odd?
4. In light of the following http://www.gamesindustry.biz/content_page.php?aid=15090 and the fact that 2K release there sports games as budget titles ($19.99) bullet 2 seems like a moot point.
Spoiler: | The titles appearing on the system include first-party games such as Counter-Strike, Project Gotham Racing 2 and Fuzion Frenzy, as well as third-party games including Splinter Cell (and its sequel, Pandora Tomorrow), Morrowind, MechAssault, Soul Calibur II, True Crime: Streets of LA, and both Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4 and Tony Hawk's Underground. |
You'll know yourself from the January sales and indeed sales at any time of the year that you can pick up quality games on the Xbox for £5-$9.99, I mean over christmas I saw Jade Empire, Halo 2, ESPN NFL 2K5 and Monkeyball DX selling brand new for a tenner and Oddworld Munch for £5. There all good titles and you'd have to be mad to buy Jacked at a more expensive price point in favour of those games in the spoiler tag. Soul Caliber 2 $9.99 - they may as well give the game away at that price.
Feel free to laugh at me though russ_beer for my own bad taste, I found Final Fight Streetwise to be enjoyable even though on average its been getting 3-4 out of 10 on the sites.

NP Starshine, its your taste and opinions that make you you. Don't change them for anyone.
I seem to have become unofficial spokesperson for Jacked! I've played it, I've gone through it, very short considering the genre. Track design are more or less infinite so for it to only have about 15 tracks is slack i think. Yeah, its a budget title, but you do expect more. Even its going out at £15-20 I'd want more than about 4 hours out of it. which is what i got. Thankfully its on a multi with 3-4 games.
On the Final Fight thing, i used to, and still to a degree, really enjoy 3d scrolling beat-em-ups. I haven't grabbed this because I can't find ANY good things about it (except yours) and because Beats of Rage was bloody awful (which i think was by capcom too)
Those are my reasons. I may get it for a multi after you saying its decent and worth a go, i do tend to like different games to other people as well as the blockbusters. I thought Big Mutha Truckers 2 was good! whats that say about me!!! lol
