What a great game, having been to Hawaii it is cool to drive by things and think “I drove past this”. While the roads are not true to life it is close enough. The graphics are very good as well and the vehicle stats are dead on. It is a very well done driving game. I only have a couple complaints.
1. The engine noise is very generic, a recording of actual noises programmed to mimic the acceleration and deceleration would have been a nice touch, but the effect as is can be tolerated.
2. The graphics tend to cut out or fail as you progress in the levels. Maybe the PSP cannot keep up or maybe it is a programmer being lazy. Either way this needs to be improved if a future edition is released.
3. Missions get cheep. This is always a big complaint of mine when playing a game. Performance of the vehicles does not mesh. A car that has far less in performance keeps up to you in missions. That is not right, the programmers went thought the trouble of getting the car stats close to real why get cheesy when in missions? Keep some continuity in game play, if a car handles a certain way or goes a certain speed; do not change these stats for the AI in missions just to make a mission harder. If you want to make the mission harder make better drives out of the AI.
All in all a good game and recommended if you like driving games.
