Quick Review : "Final Lap?"



This 8 stage racing game chart is packed with adrenalin pumping racing, bringing the F-1 experience to the Japanese homes in 1987. In my opinion, this is one of the best Motorsport games for the Famicom of all times. This game had a LOT of small little things in it to make it interesting for both hardcore F-1 fans and regular gamers. For instance, you have 8 tracks to race on, some of them are fictional and some are tracks modeled after the real tracks in Japan and the rest of the world. You can tune your F-1 car and enhance some of the car's stats like:

Engine: Increases the car's Top Speed!
Brakes: You brake faster!
Tier: Your car grips better in sharp turns!
Nitro: (the unrealistic one) By pressing "forward" you get a boost!

Each of the parts can be upgraded 4 times, but you only start with 5 points to spend so its up to you how to spend it.

The interesting part is how smart the AI is, they react really realistically to your actions.

This is one game that I really recommend for all who either loves motor sport or just want a short and a moderately hard game.

Back from the dead!

So i haven't been posting something new this month, but its all going to change.

There will be a new type of "Short Review" or "Quick Review" (whichever name i choose for it) coming out soon of a Namcot game that really isn't much to say about, but i still love it. And its a unnecessary to make a big review with lots of pictures and lots of information about a game that you can complete in less than 30 min.

Anyways, look forward for a new review coming soon!
