Some events require delicate driving (almost impossible with the physics in this game) and you'll probably end up doing the first few seconds at least 15 times. so what do you get for finishing a career? THE CREDITS!!! And that's it! The pathetic excuse for a career mode is only about 30 events long, and most of those are under two minutes (at least three of them are under half a minute.) The load times are unforgiveable in a game of this nature. There are no hidden cars, no hidden tracks to unlock, no hidden movies. One would hope that playing out a career would give you something special, but it doesn't. Even the "every man for themselves" events become the destruction derby equivalent of a gang bang on your car. Whether it's your car flipping out at an inopportune moment, being pinned in a traffic jam with only seconds left so you can't defend your lead, or being ambushed by 11 other cars in a so-called "free for all," this game cheats. The only reason this game is difficult is because it takes cheap shots at you. Gameplay: How many times do you see cars drive sideways to avoid your oncoming car? How many times can you line someone up for a hit, turn on your nitros for a speed boost, then have another car take your target away at the last nanosecond? How many times can you be stuck in a pile of cars for up to 30 seconds, unable to move while the lead is taken from you? How many times can you be slaughtered because the computer reacts instantly to the buttons you push, making it impossible to avoid taking a hit? Those are only a few of the questions I was shouting at my TV while playing Totalled. After only 6 days in my collection, I sold it. This is nothing but a frustrating game that's needlessly difficult. It may be fairly nice to look at, and soundtrack support is a good thing, but there's no substance. This was one of the worst game purchases I've ever made. Overall: I decided to purchase Totalled a couple days ago based on the number of good reviews and the first few levels I played at a friend's house.
