Reviews for "Freegear"

excellent game

Pros:

1. Solid graphics
2. Appropriate music
3. Love the variety of backgrounds
4. Good physics- very exact, although I'm not sure why I never slowed down even when one wheel was driving on grass
5. The attention to little details, like choice between kph and mph, was excellent

Cons:

1. Not very original
2. Not much freedom in choosing upgrades- you pretty much have to pick all 4 at one price before picking another feature again

Overall, a very well polished game (not common on NG to say the least) that lacks anything memorable. Deserves a 9 for the effort.

Love It

by far one of the best racing games i've played

made me all nostalgic for some out run action

Nice

Nice and simple, but fun.

Don't beat yourself up...

This *so* deserves the daily second. But then again, I'm a bit biased, as I loved the Top Gear series...

But yeah, a few things:
- Upgrades. Perhaps find a more creative way than bars and +/- buttons... Even the original Top Gear had pictures of engines and transmissions and body armor and what not... And on that note, there are no transmission upgrades (that I've found, so far... Only finished 3 of the tourneys), you're pretty much stuck with the 5-speed...

- Coefficient of friction of the road. Rain, snow or dry roads, it's all the exact same to drive on. What the hell is the point of differing weather conditions if there isn't a varying level of challenge?

- Points system, like the original. I came first twice and second twice (to two different cars) and I still got a silver trophy. WTF?

The rest you've mentioned that you either rushed or are working on... I hope you read this, and please make more! This is probably the first flash racing game I played for more than 15 minutes...

5/5
9/10

And to everyone who is crying about how "hard" the game is... OLD SCHOOL GAMES ARE LIKE THAT. If you don't like it, quit your bitch-ass whining and go back to your modern, watered-down video games.

nice

but very unrealistic but addicting next time please let people drive off the road lol itll be funner
