In a time of economic crisis, you can't help but feel sorry for the monster truck drivers everywhere who depend on obscene amounts of fuel to entertain drunken crowds. It's a tough time for everyone, but if you need a cheap alternative to the real thing, Monster Jam Urban Assault DS will help with the shakes. While Urban Assault has variety, its main attraction (doing tricks for points) is more up to chance than anything. You can direct the truck to do a back flip by pressing down on the D-pad, but the most rotations are added when you smash into the ground, which is a completely random event in itself.
