Ex: Monster Jam: Path of Destruction is the ultimate, authentic monster truck experience complete with unprecedented realism, customization, truck handling and all-out destruction. Fan-favorites Grave Digger, Maximum Destruction, and Grinder are all in the mix, and players can also create and customize their own trucks with thousands of options, unlocking new parts and upgrades as they progress through the game with the ultimate goal of reaching of reaching the Monster Jam World Finals.
Ben writes: "Ah yes, Monster Jam. A bizarre obsession in America, ranking close with NASCAR as an one of our most popular vehicle-based “sports” wherein the drivers perform amazing stunts and complete speedy races to awe the crowd. Really, both are incredibly simplistic endeavors, but they manage to gather enough popularity to create a handful of console games, a few of which get ported over to the Wii with, ah, mixed results. Thus enters Monster Jam: Path of Destruction."
Does the latest Monster Jam game live up to its monster truck reputation? Sadly, no. It's all flat.
PSX Extreme: "Popularized in the ‘80s with the help of Bigfoot and Grave Digger, Monster Truck events are loud, thrilling, and loaded with gasoline-infused adrenaline. If it isn’t your thing, don’t bother with Monster Jam: Path to Destruction; it certainly isn’t good enough to spark a sudden interest in the big-wheel sport. For the fans, it might be good enough, provided you’re willing to deal with a surprisingly steep learning curve, some drab technicals, and a one-dimensional career that doesn’t exactly feature a ton of depth or customization. On the good side, there’s a fair amount of entertainment and the atmosphere seems to work. The physics aren’t bad, the controls are okay, and the various events, vehicles, and required skill is appreciated to some degree. Trust me, if I can have a wee bit of fun playing a monster truck game, it can’t be that terrible."
MOOOONSTER TRUUUUUUUUUUUUCKKKSSS!!!!
HELL. YEAH.
This totally brings back childhood memories for me.
I'd like to see a Monster Truck VS game. Right? Like Monster Trucks vs Twisted Metal, or to a lesser extent Monster Trucks vs Looney Tunes. Just for kicks.
Memories just came back of when I used to play Monster Jam on the Gameboy Advanced. Ahhh, those were the days. :D
