IMHO,
I just got Demolition Racer and it is terrible. To start there I
no multiplayer support. How can someone release a game without it? That's
just plain stupid. That's not the worst part of it. The control in the
game is awful. I've tried 3 different controllers and no matter which one I
used the car is totally impossible to control. You can never get the
steering back to center.
DO NOT BUY THIS GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have to agree with this. No multiplayer support??? WTF. The control is
impossible!!!!!
I thought this message was going to be about N3 online.
I had considered describing some of my experiences under the same header.

Actually, I'm having some fun with this game. I'm a big fan of sims
and arcadish racers, as long as they make good use of my LWFF wheel,
and the experience is fun.
I picked up this game against my better judgement since the box said
zilch about force feedback. I got it home and installed it (it did
something weird to my DirectX installation, but no system problems
yet), and sighed when it started up-- NO FORCE FEEDBACK. Actually,
using a wheel, there is no sense of control whatsoever. Terrible.
THEN, I recognized the game for what it is. A console arcade game. I
took out the wheel and defined my microsoft sidewinder joypad. Fired
the game up again and it was actually fun! I could control the car
again!
It's obvious to me that the game was designed for digital joypads. If
you take the game for what it is-- a $30 playstation game-- it's quite
a hoot.
Some good advice for people who want to give this game a try again--
USE A JOYPAD, NOT A WHEEL!
Not that this title will hold my interest in the least once I get my
hands on a released Dirt Track Racing CD, but hey, it's a diversion
until then.

The same can be said for the recent entrants in the Need for Speed series.
