32.) ARE THERE ANY CHEAT CODES FOR THIS GAME?
=============================================
Yes, there is. Some good cheat codes at that to. For those of you who don't want to lose the value of this game, do not read beyond this part. I will not be held responsible for people who suddenly hate this game when they beat it with these cheat codes. If you don't really care if you cheat or not, then read on. All these cheats are to be typed in during a part of the game, they will be explained below...

Type these cheat codes in during the races or when you are about to race.
=========================================================================
DRUB  = Invincible
DREAD = Unlimited ammo for all weapon
DRAG  = Unlimited nitros
DRINK = Get the ROCKET NITRO without buying it in the shops.
DRUG  = This effect is the same as getting the MUSHROOMs

Type these cheat codes in during the shops when you are buying stuff.
=====================================================================
DROOL = Gives you $500,000 as your money.
DRAW  = Gives you $1,000 each time you type the code
DRIVE = Gives you 10 points so you can get higher in the rankings
DROP  = Removes 10 points from your rankings

Here is a little easter egg that you might like to know.
========================================================
When you are starting a new game, name yourself...

DUKE NUKEM

Make sure you type it in EXCATLY like I have it with the space between the 2 words. Make sure you do not hold the shift keys when you do this. (For some reason, using the shift keys will not make this cheat work properly.) When you use that name, you will get the armor factor of what ever DUKE NUKEM has in the game. (For some reason, as mentioned several times, DUKE NUKEM has an armor factor that is not possible of having in the game. Even though he is driving a DELIVERATOR, it is not possible to have an armor rating that good.
If you are doubting my word, just try to take him out with your weapons and see how long it takes you to knock him out of the race.) This is very helpful if you are having trouble with cars that like to shoot at you.

MENTAL NOTE
===========
All cheats, except for the DRIVE cheat, will work for the SHAREWARE version of this game.


33.) IF YOU WERE TO RATE THIS GAME, WHAT WOULD YOU RATE IT?
===========================================================
Well, I'll do my best to rate this game for you, but keep in mind that other people have their own opinions about games, so please do not take my rating as though you must trust me, just take as a warning and consideration. I rate the game from 1-5 on MY rating scale, 5 being the best, here is how I rate the game, the explainations will follow...

GRAPHICS   = 4
SOUND      = ?
CONTROL    = 4
UNIQUENESS = 3
OVARALL    = 4
DIFFICULTY = MEDIUM

GRAPHICS = The graphics are rather good and smooth comparded to other race games that have the same gameplay feature. Although I am sure that, for a PC, they could have done this game in 640x480. Mostly because there is NOT that much background animation going on, so this could work well in that resolution for almost any PC system with a PENTIUM chip. I also like the fact that you can run over people and it will actually show the tire marks, even after you have gone a lap or more. The most recent games didn't leave this when you went around a lap again to see what you did. This has to do with new technology to manipulate the sprites controller when you are playing. This is also true when you leave tread marks on the road. When you skid or burn some rubber, the tread marks will still be in the exactly same location from when you first made the tread marks, even after you have gone more than a LAP around the track. This makes the game very realistic. Another thing that is very mind boggling is when you accidently get the MUSHROOM. The graphics warp very strangely, but it shows a very close likeness of what it's like to do drugs.
(Not like I would know what drugs would look or feel like or anything  ;) )

SOUND = My soundcard was not working at the time, will work on this.

CONTROL = When you first start out, you get a crappy car. As with any race game where you can buy upgrades, it will take some patients, time, and skill to get the upgrades you need for your car. But, once you have gotten far in the game and have gotten a pretty good car, the control is very good and very easy to use when you are racing. Sometimes it is also best to test out the tracks, rather than just go all out and race on any track and hope to win. The key for you newbies is practice, for those of you who have played such games as the classic SUPER SPRINT or SUPER OFF ROAD, you people will catch on really fast. Another thing I do like is the fact that you can play HEAD-TO-HEAD with other people from around the world who have this game. If you do like to play up against other people for the pure pleasure of it, and you would like some style in a race game, then this is a must have for you HEAD-TO-HEAD players.
(If you want more info on playing HEAD-TO-HEAD with other people, see question
30. 31. and 32 for more info on this.)

UNIQUENESS = Hmmm, a racing game with guns, mines, nitros, money, and the ability to buy better and more controllable cars. Well, it is rather original, but all they did was just took the idea of SUPER SPRINT and SUPER OFF ROAD and made it more interesting to people who play these games. Although, I do like the idea of running over innocent people who stand on the side of the roads as you pass them by. I also like the fact that you can upgrade your car and the many ways of getting money. Personally, I think that the people who made this game could have made more cars for us to choose from. Plus, being able to upgrade to 5 or 6 points for the best car so you could stand a REAL chance with the secret boss car could have helped out to. And how about some sort of a track editor for us people to edit and create. Other than my usual NICK
PICKINESS, this game is rather unique in it's own way. People who have kids or want to give their kids a good game with not that much violence, this would be a good game to give to them. If you are just an adult, then get it for the pleasure of being able to blow the smokes off of a car with guns, mines, and pounding them with your front spiked bumpers. (Of course you need to watch out for the CPU's tricky way of doing the same thing to you to.) Some other things that make this game interesting is the fact that you not only buy cars and upgrades, but choosing a face for yourself, and a color or your car make this game stand out a little from the other race games I have seen. Of course another thing that makes this one so unique is that you can play HEAD-TO-HEAD with other people using either the modem, network, or COMM play. This feature seems to be the FAD with most PC games, and great fun with someone you don't know.

OVERALL = This game adds the fun style of SUPER SPRINT/SUPER OFF ROAD with an added twist of guns, mines, nitros, spikes, sabatage, and being able to get all the money you want (If you know how), plus the fact that the animation is very smooth and the playablity is very cool so that kids can play this game, all adds up to a great and interesting race game filled with lots of tracks to race on and racing up against 3 other racers at the same time. Plus the fact that you get to race against the secret boss car when you rank #1 in the game.
There are also plenty of cheats (see question 25) to help you out while you are playing this game.

DIFFICULTY = This game can be hard if you have not played such games as the classic SUPER SPRINT or SUPER OFF ROAD. If this is your first time to play with such a game, you will need to be very patient with this game. For those of you who have played such classic games, you will have a field day with this game. The game is not that difficult, but the opponents will sometimes play hard to get, and even down and dirty once in a while. The CPU's AI (Advanced
Intelligence) is good. They know how to make sure you stay on their tale, and know how to plant the mines just right so you hit them almost everytime. Plus, some of the tracks are rather hard to master since the CPU is a master at taking the corners rather easily, but you get used to it after a few races on the same track over and over again. Although I will say that after beating this game for about the 5th-7th time, you will grow rather tired of it. The only replay I would get out of it would be to just be able to see how fast I could take out all the opponents on any track and to see how many times I can beat the time records on each track. If you play against someone over the modem, network, or COMM port, the difficulty is measured by who does play well and who doesn't play well.
