Gas Guzzlers Extreme - PC Game Review

Gas Guzzlers Extreme is a racing shooter. You start with a particularly lame car (after a single race with a well loaded, nice car), and as you win unlock more powerful cars, upgrades and weapons.

Clearly nothing revolutionary, but driving feels fun and has OK physics. You can really feel the difference between driving on the road, desert and snow. Crashes and bumping off the road looks a little arcade-y, though.

Weapons are OK, but don't think that you are going to get a nice shot and take someone out. With the shotgun, machine guns or rocket launchers it is going to take a while to kill any enemy. There is some big impact effects from hits of rockets or shotguns, though.
(on regular settings, at least. There is an arcade mode, but I didn't try it yet)

There are several tracks, as well as regular, no weapon races (boring!), the main races where you can use guns, and an elimination mode where the slowest car on each lap is removed.

Of course, there are power-ups you can pick, including mines, oil, extra ammo (it is VERY easy to use all your ammo - there are upgrades that improve capacity, you will want these!) and shields.

The starter car model!

There is also a multiplayer mode, which also has bots available.

Overall, I really liked it. Plenty of fun for the price.
