IGN writes: "For fans of real-world off-road racing, the Baja 1000 is legendary for being one of the most brutal and dramatic endurance motorsports events in the world. Every year, racers descend on Baja California to put trophy trucks, VW bugs, buggies and bikes through a grueling thousand-mile race full of bumps, hills, jumps and bruises.
With its multiple vehicle classes, numerous side-events and largely unexplored potential, publisher THQ and developer 2XL Games saw the Baja series as fertile ground for translation to the videogame world, and the two teamed up to turn that experience into a game geared heavily toward the hardcore set."
Baja Edge of Control coming digitally to Xbox One, PS4.
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.
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.
I knew this game would SUCK!
If the humorless prcks that "run" this site didn't ban me from the gamer zone, I'd be agreeing with you.
I thought it would at the most get a 4.0. Wow my luck has been off a lot these few months.
TGSI
yes indeed.
it got a 6.9
