City Racer GameCube

City Racer is a street racing title featuring 12 licensed cars from such manufacturers as Volkswagen, Dodge, Mitsubishi, and Ford as players prepare to compete on one of 12 real-world tracks. Players will twist and turn through the streets of Paris, Rome, New York, Moscow, and London as they not only rely on speed to win, but also skills in power sliding, drifting, and even sideswiping rival vehicles. Points are earned for each maneuver performed while racing, so style is just as important as technique. The arcade-like action is fueled by 14 different power-ups that will either help a player's car or hinder an opponent. Eight modes of play include Quick Race, Championship, Countdown, Last Man Standing, Chase, Sudden Death, and Mission. ~ Scott Alan Marriott, All Game Guide
