And that's exactly why I wanted to emphasize Halfbrick's upcoming Community Game, Rocket Racing. Simply put, it looks good. Damned good, even. As the name implies, it's a racing game, obviously, but what sets it apart is undoubtedly the title's simplistic nature.
The controls are as such: the left trigger activates the left rocket, and the right trigger activates the right rocket. So, holding both triggers down makes your vehicle go forward, and you use the two rockets independently to coordinate turning. Of course, the tracks are all insane, and it's not as easy as that.
There's a nice trailer located after the break which will help explain things, and I urge everyone to check it out. No word on a release date yet, but we'll surely keep you posted."

There's no shortage of racing games for handhelds, and it takes a lot of special to make one stand out. Rocket Racing's concept is good but not great and doesn't pack the fun factor required to make the game worthwhile. It's a frustrating experience that feels less like a game and more like a test.
For the small price it asks there's a lot of game in the package, but this is the kind of game that even if it had been free few should give it a second glance; it's just not worth the time investment.
Most games have at least one notable aspect of risk versus reward.Action games often tie that directly to the player's ability to quickly strategize and react. The yearning that humans feel to test limits is often known as "pushing the envelope". Rocket Racing is a 2D racing game built around that yearning.
Nope.I do not care for any 360 flops.
