two team play, Smear Mode is three players against one poor sap, and Survival Mode is an all-out Deathmatch Mode where every gamer is for him/herself. Here's what's new to the N64: First, the N64 version ofV8 features a slew of new multiplayer modes including Brawl, Smear and Survival modes. But since it's the first of its kind on the system, there isn't anything really to compare V8 to.well, except to V8 on the PlayStation. Basically, think of a fancy Twisted Metal or Rogue Trip where you try to kill all of the other guys and gals in a level, with a variety of strange vehicles, loads of weapons and, yes, an Area 51 level.

In case you're not familiar with Vigilante 8, the game has a Mad Max feel-that is, if the actors in the movie were played by the members of the P-funk group Parliament-who drive '70s muscle cars-with levels that take place in the American Southwest. While V8 isn't a lemon, it does get stuck in the combat-vehicle "B" lot. Vigilante 8's graphics and huge levels purr away, but the poor controls put some sugar in the tank. The sound effects also shine, but some of the dialogue spoken by various characters is lame and groan-worthy. The low-key hard country and 70s funkadelic tunes make for good drivin'. It will take some real patience to keep driving this V8. Sluggish and unresponsive controls occasionally put the fun in neutral. The rendered cinema opening is a thing of beauty. Vigilante 8's incredible visuals are filled with eye candy and excellent details.

You choose from one of eight crazed drivers and their specialized muscle cars, including a Cleopatra Jones-ish cyborg in a 75 Palomino and a beauty queen turned F.B.I. V8's minimal plot pits Vigilantes (the good guys) against Coyotes (the bad guys) for control of the country's oil reserves. It's also easy to get hung up on a tight incline or in a corner where all you can do is helplessly scream "Move!" at the screen. Taking tight high-speed turns is a chore, and peeling around 180 degrees is almost impossible. The airplane graveyard, for instance, has vintage B-52 bombers you can chase down the runway and blow to pieces as they try to take off.Įven though V8's graphics scream, sluggish and inaccurate controls frequently stall the fun. That's a real shame, because V8 has some of the best graphics and level designs of any vehicle shooter for the PlayStation yet: Pop-up and clipping problems are kept to a minimum, huge explosions fill the screen, and the interactive stage elemerits will make you blink in disbelief. Vigilante 8 injects some high-octane visual excitement into the combat/vehide genre, but it falls short of the Twisted Metal hall of fame due to faulty controls. Right now, the two-player game is only one-on-one, but that may change to become a free-for-all that may include up to four more cpu opponents (for a total of six cars in battle). Vigilante 8 will include a One-player Quest Mode (where you follow a character's story line), a One-player Arcade Mode (where you can just jump in and fight against one to four other cars) and a Two-player Mode. It's extremely detailed and realistic-it really must be seen and played to be appreciated. In other words, this game engine is one of the finest we've seen in a while. You can almost feel the bumpy or slippery terrain underneath your wheels. You can start avalanches on the snowy mountains. If you get.ahem, rear-ended, your tail pipe and bumpers can be knocked loose. When you get shot, you can see the bullet holes. When you damage the front end, your hood can pop loose. What really distinguishes this game from its competition, however, isn't the cars or the weapons it's the awesome game engine.
