Game: Speed Kills

You have to admire a game that starts out with such a bizarre line as "Welcome to the friendly world of DEATH RACING." At the very least it's worth your attention, and I myself went into Speed Kills expecting more laughs and a racer that doesn't take itself too seriously; where warrior maidens cheer me on for being such a good sport as they poke my car full of rocket holes. I could have loved such a game. Alas, Speed Kills takes its gritty setting seriously after all, and while I enjoyed its races and wide variety of tracks, a sprinkling of questionable design decisions and controls left my enjoyment somewhat in the dust.
