Racing on the GBA [games]
I have been waiting for a really good racing game for the Gameboy Advance. Now with the release of Nintendo's Gameboy DS and Sony's PSP, it would seem that I should give up hope, that the age of the GBA might be over... or is it?
Sometimes a system's best games become available after companies have spent years developing on it, and near the end of its life-cycle.
I just purchased Need For Speed Porsche Unleashed, and it has a pretty good 3D effect! (If you remember the 3DO, the graphics look similar in that the 3D is not as accurate as that in later machines.) The graphics look pretty good for the GBA. There's no comparison between this and the newer (and more expensive) handhelds, but this is real 3D!
As far as gameplay, I have not used it enough to pass judgement. Seems more "arcade" than "simulation", but the tracks seem to be surprisingly long!
I have read that Need for Speed: Underground uses the same 3D engine, so that may also be worth looking into.
