OK - I LOVE this game, because I LOVE Quads (ATV's). Now, please pardon my ignorance as to the most up-to-date gaming systems and graphics...I think the graphics are awesome, and very comical at times. My wife & I bought our 7 year old son a Gamecube last year, and quickly realized that there really weren't any new games available in stores because the GC is "Outdated". Fortunately, I know I can find ANYTHING on EBAY. I don't like the Star Wars games or theme-based, level-driven challenges. I wanted a mindless, fun-to-play game I could enjoy with him. As soon as we received the game, we started exploring the different menu's and riding areas. You can race the computer, race another player, pick different tracks, and different terrains and weather conditions. THEN we found the "FREESTYLE ARENA"! This is what we play most often together. It's a big, indoor arena with ramps and loops, and you can select unlimited time to just sit there and see what combinations of tricks you can come up with! Remember the "Comical" part of the graphics I was talking about - well, if you floor it and cruise across the arena, and slam into the side of a ramp, the quad dead-stops, but the rider flies across the floor, JUST LIKE IN THE REAL WORLD (without the pain)! My son happens to think that's the funniest thing in the world. We currently have a battle going on to see who can hold the longest STOPPIE! Bicycle wheelies are also fun. In my opinion, the graphics are fine for what the game represents, and the 3-D motion is smooth. The sound effects are realistic, and the music adds a cool, fun touch. There are portions of the game we still haven't uncovered, which keeps it interesting. Most important, when the two of us race, we can insert some other computer controlled riders with average skill level to offer some additional challenge, OR we can just race side-by-side by ourselves. I am extremely pleased with my purchase, and have already recommended it to a couple of my riding buddies. One of my good friends whom I ride with on a regular basis has tried the game on our gamecube with us, and he is now looking for a Gamecube unit just so he can play ATV Quad Power Racing 2! It is enjoyable, and doesn't appear to be "Quickly fading" in the popularity department. OH YEAH; as a side note: As far as ease of operating the controller and moving the quad around on the screen, my 3 year old son has picked up the controller and raced around the arena with my 7 year old son. It is VERY EASY to get the hang of the controls! The designers did an overall awesome job of fitting this game to the average JOE gamer. Thanks!Read full review
I bought this item for my 6 yr, old son. He absolutely loves it. In the small town we live in sometimes its hard to find good games for the gamecube. Buying this game on ebay was very convenient and easy. He is a big fan of racing and Gamecube. This is one of his favorite games to play.
Retro game for a retro system. Does what it's supposed to do
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
My son received a Game Cube system for his birthday. I was looking on Ebay to buy him some games.I came upon ATV racing and since he has a 4 wheeler I thought he would like the game to play. I am glad I bought the game. He loves it. The game was scratch free and works great.
My nine year old purchased this with his own money and absolutely loves it. My five year old son, and my 41 year old husband look forward to their turns as well. Visitors have loved it also. I haven't played the game myself, but I haven't heard anything negative about it at all.
