Quad Challenge
SCORE: 70
I am very thankful I had the money to
purchase the Namco Museum Collection 1 on the Evercade system.
Quad
Challenge is just another reason I am thankful for that cartridge. I
did not remember Quad Challenge from the 16-bit Genesis days. I
appreciate the Evercade system bringing attention to this game. Quad
Challenge may not be the best racing video game for that system. It did
give a nod to older racing video games.
The nod Quad Challenge gives to older racing video games is the concept
of two racers being on the screen at the same time. Quad Challenge is
really designed for two players. Since I played Quad Challenge on the
Evercade hand held device it was really a one player experience against
the computer. The computer is merciless and flawless in Quad Challenge.
Maybe I missed an option to make the game easier.
Graphically Quad Challenge did not really impress me. There are even a
couple of young ladies not wearing a lot on one of the menu screens in
Quad Challenge. Why was that needed? It really did nothing to enhance
the game or the experience. I find it funny the woke supremacists freak
out over the objectification of women, yet they give video games a pass
all the time because its art. If you actually care about the issue then
you should go after the industries that are actually objectifying women.
I will get off my soap box now.
The racing sounds and music fit the theme of Quad Challenge. I enjoyed
listening to them while trying to navigate around the tracks. Be very
careful racing in Quad Challenge. If you go off the track you will spin
out. Even if you do not hit anything. It takes forever to get up to
speed again in Quad Challenge. One mistake and the computer beat me.
Which really led to little fun for me.
The hills in Quad Challenge led to some nice air. There is something
really neat about taking an ATV vehicle into the air. Quad Challenge
reminds me of old racers with the time extended concept. We need to make
it to certain checkpoints to keep racing. The lesson I learned from Quad
Challenge is to be absolutely perfect every single time I race. One
mistake leads to a loss.
