OXM Online: Baja Preview

OXM Online writes: "The tires on Robb Rinard's trophy truck spit dirt and stones as he drifts back and forth down the narrow serpentine trail. Sunlight flashes from a side panel as it tears away from the truck, the bolts that hold it in place spraying across the path like the result of a fist connecting with a toothy grin. Rinard inhales as his truck hits a jump and vaults into the air. The vehicle's 40-plus inches of suspension literally spring into action upon landing, allowing the upper body to juke and jive like a slinky while the tires pull the beast forward.

Rinard exhales and grips his controller tighter. "In a real trophy truck," he says as his thumbs continue to twiddle, "a breathing apparatus helps drivers remember to breathe with the truck's rhythm." Then he laughs. Adrenaline-packed demos comprise everyday duties for Rinard, the man behind high-intensity titles such as MX Unleashed (2004) and currently the chief designer on 2XL Games' forthcoming off-road racer Baja."

It’s no secret that the Xbox 360’s lifespan is coming to an end, meaning we’ve got an extensive library of games to sort through and possibly trade-in to GameStop or EBGames. Because of this, used Xbox 360 games are incredibly cheap, and a lot of people might be spending this summer adding those last few games to their collections.

Time to round up the best racing titles in a Top 10 run down.

BAJA: Edge of Control Review (RaceDepartment)

There are games with niche followings, and then there are games that absolutely nobody played. Baja: Edge of Control is one of those games.

Lost in the skyrocketing popularity of Call of Duty and Halo, Baja: Edge of Control quietly landed on store shelves in late 2008, a month before the two major shooting franchises released their yearly variations. And it sat there. After six months, those copies were moved to the bargain bin, and eventually, GameStop. Today, over five years after release, online leaderboards struggle to show more than ten or eleven people with registered lap times at most tracks. Online itself was a ghost town since launch day. People simply didn’t buy this game.

And that’s a shame, because Baja: Edge of Control is a title that any motorsports fan shouldn’t hesitate to add to their collection.
