Demo's alright. Semi-definite 800 purchase for me but as usual it'd have to be utter gold to be worth 1200. I really like how pretty this-gen Sega stuff is, it all just hits the sales too quickly to justify the starting price.

/edit multiplayer is very fun indeed.

I quite like it, but I agree, it is probably a bit of a stretch at 1,200.

It does the annoying thing of forcing you to play lots of single player to unlock anything for (at least local, not sure about online) Multiplayer.

I completed one race then bought it.

Seems expensive but then you get 8 courses, 3 different ways to play them, shortcuts and other stuff to find. Plus it plays well and it's an arcade racer - pretty difficult for me to resist.

Brilliant, someone has told Trousers. Now I'll never know what the top of a leaderboard feels like.

D'oh!

However, I'm gonna buy the real deal when my exams are done, so just give it to someone else!

One of the cheevos requires four actual real people playing locally.

If you can control them all at once! It fucks you over by requiring all four human players finish above the AI racers. :(

I've played the demo and... it's a bit... well... ordinary.

Not worth the 2100 points in my eyes.

You're not looking at it right! Did you enjoy Wave Race 64?

Yeah, I'm pretty sure I did.

I think I've built up Hydro Thunder too much in my mind..

Hmm. It's not ZOMG AMAZING by any stretch, but I'm a sucker for arcade action.
