It's a crap name for a game.
With this in mind I looked at a review of the game, and picked out these quotes:
"Unlike most racers, it's the levels that take the focus in this game, not the characters themselves. While this ultimately hurts the game in the end because of a lack of gameplay depth"
"The downside is that once you've figured out the best routes, the actual running through the levels, the actual racing of this racing game, loses a lot of its charm."
"A couple of people around the office have criticized that the game's levels are a bit too large"
"The gameplay's still kept simple"
"The thing is, rarely does pulling off some of the game's extra features translate into winning the game."
"it always seems to be a race made in the last 10 seconds, no matter how well or poorly you've played. "
"The main gripe is that because of the huge levels you'll find yourself spread apart from other players, without any clue as to where they are in relation to you"
"There's something called being a little too witty, and it's called "a show by the name of Dawson's Creek"
"It won't kill you, but you'll start getting annoyed at cute catchphrases spouted as appoints knock you down again and again."
"If there's anything to get disappointed about, it's that once you've figured out your perfect routes, you'll have little interest in the actual act of running through the levels"
So there. It IS crap.
Mario Kart 64 was like this......sort of..
:-)
Speaking of names, anyone remember the old SNES games when everything was named Super?
