Yeah yeah so this game is really bad. Its filled with bugs and it doesn't actually work. But big rigs actually amused me for a little bit. Normally, I'd write about how bad this game is but since its been criticized so badly by everyone else, my review will focus on the positives. Gameplay - 4 Sure you could say it should get a 1 for calling itself a racer when you dont actually race in the game, but this is actually a somewhat good thing. In most racing games, you go so fast that you dont have time to look at the environment even if it looks good. In big rigs, you can take your sweet little time exploring the world, and hey what other game allows you to go through objects and drive off the map? I remember playing Mario 64 and I would be running around and then WHAM! this invisible wall in every level would prevent me from exploring any further. This restriction doesn't exist in big rigs. Also, though the controls aren't terribly realistic, the fact that you can go full speed or turn in any direction in half a second means you won't be frustrated by not being able to turn around fast enough like in more modern racing games. Graphics - 3 Sure the graphics look really terrible, but they're consistent. With so many good looking, realistic games nowadays we don't get to see the inside of a house in a driving game very often now do we? Also, this is one of the few games where objects look better far away than they do close up. Besides, you should be able to run this game on any graphics card. Plus, the game looks better than anything on the N-Gage and its fully 3-D which is definitely better than those $20 educational games or free flash games on the internet. Sound - 1 Well, this probably was the most dissappointing part of the game since, well, it didn't really have any. Value - 4 Even if you just spent all your money on Halo 2, Half LIfe 2, GTA: San Andreas, a Nintendo DS, and all the other good games that have come out recently, you should still be able to get this game without having to mortgage your home. Even if you did pay the 6 bucks this game is supposed to cost, it does give you at least a couple of chuckles which is more than you can say about some movies. Tilt - 2 Because of the horrid reviews this game has been getting, I was expecting to completely hate this game. However, this game was better than I expected, something even Halo 2 can't claim. Sure it's probably the worst game I have ever played, but it didn't cause me any headaches, which many games do. Given the game's low cost (assuming you actually pay for it) there's certainly many other ways you can waste your time and money.

Big Rigs has popularly become hyped as the worst game of all time, yet in reality it's far from it. Don't get me wrong, this isn't a game, it's an unfinished piece of crap - it's essentially the final thesis of a Digipen... Read Full Review
In my honest opinion, GS is being too nice, even if the lowest score here on GS is 1 :P It should have gotten a solid 0! xD The fact that this game actually was released must have been a joke from the creators, cuz I can... Read Full Review
