‘Rock n’ Roll Racing’

[SNES] [USA] [MAGAZINE] [1993]

This game is easily up there with Super Mario Kart as one of the finest racers on the system. The high-octane action never lets up and moves at a great pace — it’s generally thrilling to hold first position at the death of a race. You can get enough season points to get promoted to the higher racing leagues early on, but my advice would be to finish the season out, as you win more cash for upgrades. Some of the later tracks can become a bit confusing with their twists and turns, but keep an eye on the map in the upper left corner helps. The presentation is top notch throughout, and the controls are impeccable. My only nitpick is that the soundtrack grates after a while, so shut that off, leaving on the commentator (played by race announcer Larry Huffman) to describe the action perfectly, and turn some heavy hair rock up to 11 instead. Then grab a buddy and have some two-player split-screen carnage! ~Jim Evans, Ultimate Nintendo: Guide to the SNES Library
