Quick Review #2: Gentlemen Start Your Engiiines (XBLIG)


Image source: marketplace.xbox.com

Time for another review! This time, I'm going to review another Xbox Live Indie Games title that I've been playing recently. This is Gentlemen Start Your Engiiines (yes, they used the letter 'i' three times!), developed by the one-man French team Maximinus. It is available to download for 240 Microsoft Points.

As you can obviously see, it's a racing game. When I played the game, I thought "Hmm...is it me or does this game look kinda similar to that Sega classic Daytona USA?". I think it is. Not visually, but the controls feel pretty much the same.

All you basically do in this game is you're racing in the kind of way that feels a bit like NASCAR. That isn't really a bad thing.

I would say that the only problem this game has is its price. You might think 240 MSP is alright, but the thing is that there isn't a lot of content and I think 80 MSP would've been a better price. Despite the price, this NASCAR-style arcade racer is still decent to play.

Overall rating: 7/10
