Hot Wheels Unleashed 2 Turbocharged
SCORE: 80
Those live streams I performed of Hot Wheels Unleashed 2 Turbocharged
sped by. Yes I intended that pun. I did notice that Hot Wheels Unleashed
2 Turbocharged is shorter than the first game. I was able to beat Hot
Wheels Unleashed 2 Turbocharged much faster than before. With that said
there are a few irritations within Hot Wheels Unleashed 2 Turbocharged.
We have normal races, elimination races, drifting courses, reach key
locations, and timed races in Hot Wheels Unleashed 2 Turbocharged.
The biggest problem for me was the giant areas where we had to go from
blue column to blue column in a certain order. There were some odd
transitions in those giant areas. For example I might need to get from
one place to another with no discernable path to get there. I would need
to drive around to find my way. Which would be fine except there was a
time limit to be able to progress past this level. Jumping could be a
pain at times especially on the mini golf course area. There are assists
like auto jumping that work in races, but not in the giant areas.
Drifting and boosting are a major part of Hot Wheels Unleashed 2
Turbocharged. Multiple difficulty settings makes the races approachable
by all skill sets. Again those giant areas with the blue columns are
totally different. Drifting is usually pretty easy. Just remember to
avoid hitting the wall during a drift. Points will stop counting in that
instance. I did find drifting pretty easy due to the loose nature of the
controls in Hot Wheels Unleashed 2 Turbocharged. Vehicles can knock one
another around with a side swipe attack now as well.
Hot Wheels Unleashed 2 Turbocharged looks good, and the music had to be
turned off due to audio copyright claims. Why even include copyrighted
music anymore with so many streamers? We just mute the music and never
use it. These companies are seriously wasting their money.
There are tons of cars to purchase with real world or in game currency
in Hot Wheels Unleashed 2 Turbocharged. Vehicles can also be upgraded in
Hot Wheels Unleashed 2 Turbocharged. Be careful because then you cannot
use upgraded cars in certain races. Why that was done I have no idea. I
am not a fan of the map in Hot Wheels Unleashed 2 Turbocharged. I was
unable to find a way to look around the map to find the boss. There can
be multiple paths and I would waste my time going down dead ends. There
is a zoom out that is not always helpful in finding the right path.
