Gaming Union writes "Overall Heracles Chariot Racing feels like a poor game that was simply ported to WiiWare. The title further shoots itself in the foot by providing no instruction whatsoever and it all just feels a bit lazy. Multiplayer isn't any more fun than single player, and even the fact that gameplay can become fun at times by no means is a redeeming quality. The game should be consistently fun, unique, and just-maybe make some actual use of its theme, but this simply is not the case for Heracles Chariot Racing."
A whole lotta bite-sized offerings can be played on any PSP or your PS3 and downloaded directly from the PlayStation Store. Meant to be simple in approach, Minis are nuggets of pure game design, and accordingly they're usually priced quite a bit cheaper than full-blown games. Every week, IGn will be taking a look at what's hit the Store and offering up a simple verdict on the various offerings.
GamingXP: Take the two great franchises, "Disney's Hercules" and Nintendo's "Mario Kart", you escape the magic of the reputable and licensed characters, and then mix vigorously.
Gamez writes: "That many games would benefit from the success of Mario Kart is now no secret. Heracles Chariot Racing unashamedly uses the same elements of Mario Kart in a different setting."
Well that really made me want to play it.
Ugh, more crapware on WiiWare. >.>
Could have been a neat game idea, too.
Yay cash grab xd
Not even good for a downloadable title? that's bad...
