Our Review
The good
- Fluid gameplay
- Decent-sized career mode
- Well-balanced progression
- Good mix of vehicles
The bad
- Bland environmental backgrounds
- Poor vehicle sounds
- Broken online component
- Overly challenging final boss
Summary
Playing through BlazeRush’s career mode is a mostly fun experience thanks to the nicely balanced progression and fine selection of vehicle types. Sadly the retro-inspired title has been let down badly by all of its online issues. BlazeRush has all the hallmarks of a party-focused game, too, which makes its lacklustre online component all the more frustrating.
