Le Mans 24h (N64)

This game for the nintendo 64 is a brill game because it feels as if you are in the driving seat of a 340 horse power super car. The controls are easy to master and the actual race dosn't last for the proper amount of time. Ether in the pits or racing around hairpin turns this game is for the sport lover who would do anything for glory. Also there are great option modes which let you chose from a wide range of these one of a kind super cars. ...  Read the complete review

I was sceptical about Le Mans 24 after reading reviews stating it was 'just another average racing game', but decided to buy the game and I'm more than pleasantly surprised! The graphics are superb: Le Mans is without doubt the best-looking Dreamcast game so far. The cars are drivable, the computer AI cars are competitive, and the draw distance is amazing! You do not have to opt for a full 24 hour race, you can have just a 10 minutes race, or a 30 minutes, but I recommend a full days' driving - play with a few mates and take shifts, its a real achievement to complete no matter what position you finish in!

On any platform, the EA Sports series has pretty much dominated all sport categories. For the Nintendo 64, there have only been two contenders for the hockey category, the Breakaway series, and Wayne Gretzky's hockey.

It would have been nice to have a speed setting. ...  Read the complete review

I bought this game with the anticipation that I’d be able to drive around Le Mans in a realistic car for 24 Hours. Firstly, its about as realistic as Battlefield Earth and secondly you cant even drive around for 24hrs!!! Yep! You heard me, in fact its weirder than that. When racing the Le Mans part of the game (there are other rubbish arcade tracks), your lap times seem to run at a different speed to the 24hr countdown clock. Although some people might not care it does distract while trying to work out lap times etc… Nice one Infogrames, realism is your forte!! In fact it doesn’t really matter as this game, although having simulation ...  Read the complete review
