In terms of single player there are 12 tournaments in Career mode, 27 single races, plus the Xbox exclusive 18 stadium events (you can only drive the unlimited class trucks in these events and they handle like crap with terrible understeer so I didn't find them fun at all plus there's no reward for completing them). Because as it is there's not really that much to do in Wide Open. A great feature would have been some kind of race editor where you can set your own checkpoints to create custom races. The open nature of the locations is mostly wasted. It may not be for everyone's tastes but I think it matches the off-road racing action rather well. In addition to rock/metal songs from 8 Degrees, Celldweller, Fear Factory, Phantom Black, Quarashi and Unloco there's some breakbeat tracks from 303 Infinity and Digital Assassins as well. Metallica's "Fuel" is the featured title and its a great fit. The soundtrack is good, there's 12 songs in total (and not 14 as advertized on the back of the box). Power accelerates and climbs better while speed goes faster so you need to pick your route accordingly. Vehicles are divided into power and speed classes. There's 6 special vehicles as well, such as Humvee, Shelby Durango, monster truck and my personal favourite - the mighty Dodge T-Rex 6圆.

Each has a stock, modified, pro and unlimited versions. The 12 standard cars feature the likes of Jeep Wrangler, Chevy Blazer, Dodge Ram, Ford Bronco, Mercedes-Benz ML430 and, of course, the Hummer in both wagon and soft top versions. There are 18 off-road vehicles to choose from. There's a stadium race mode, Moon level, two extra vehicles (Chevy Avalanche and Moon Buggy) and it supports 4 players. This Xbox version packs more content than the PlayStation 2 original.
The game generally lives up to its title featuring three vast areas (Hawaii, Moab desert and Yosemite National Park) where you can free roam. The third game, on the other hand, I have very fond memories of, so I was eager to check out the fourth and last title in the TD off-road seriesĪnd fortunately Wide Open is among the good ones. The first one was absolute rubbish, the second one was an improvement but not by much. Test Drive's off-road spin off series didn't get off to a great start.
