Description: You drift around a corner at 500 mph, activate turbo boost, and blast through the sound barrier. You lock eyes on your opponent, and the lasers mounted on your hood follow your vision. A few crisp bursts and you’re dodging a tumbling mass of fire. No time to marvel–that next corner is coming fast as you race on a track with more twists and loops than a roller coaster. Welcome to hyperspeed combat racing. Welcome to Bank Limit.
Review: Bank Limit: Advanced Battle Racing might have a high price tag, but it does have to be said there is a lot of content here to be getting on with. If you like your sci-fi racing games like Radial-G: Racing Revolved there is a high chance you might enjoy this one as much as I did. I will also go so far as to say it looks even better than Radial-G, but just doesn’t play as well.
The speed in this game is the biggest issue. It doesn’t feel like you are going fast, unlike Radial-G. It all looks nice enough, but nothing feels finished, nothing looks or feels polished enough to justify the higher than the usual price tag. This is one of those games that is a pretty good game, but I would definitely wait for a sale before making a purchase. Pay less than a fiver for this ($5) will leave you feeling you got value for money.
