Micro Machines: World Series (Xbox One)

Product Information

While the locations are imaginative and sometimes, in the case of one set atop a giant Hungry Hungry Hippos board, even genius, navigating these Arenas can be rather confusing. Hobby Consoles said that the "12 player online mode is not enough to compensate the absence of a career mode, the technical failures and some online design problems (such as the lobby system and menus)".

They slip and slide all over the track, no matter what vehicle you've chosen and as a newcomer it's very easy to over or under steer and end up careening over the edge of a table or getting lodged in a pile of pretzels. With the emphasis here firmly fixed on Battle Mode, fan favourites like Elimination mode and the standard races play second fiddle and feel like afterthoughts. Huge variety of weapons, interactive tracks, and unique skins, kill markers and victory animations to earn! There was a high emphasis on vehicular combat, and that came at a cost of the fun and simplicity that made the series so great.There were no microtransactions, these loot boxes were awarded after online races and from levelling up.

Maybe I'm just an old fuddy duddy now but I honestly struggled to see the outline of the track in all of the tracks we played. Up to 12 players in huge arenas, multiple modes that proves that a single takedown is just as satisfying as winning a race! And being honest for a moment, I usually like to rejog my memories with these pieces and will go back and play the title in question for a bit. Micro Machines World Series is a racing video game developed and published by Codemasters for Microsoft Windows, OS X, Linux, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.

CUSTOMISABLE VEHICLE CAST: An array of amazing miniature vehicles, each with its own unique load-out of weapons and abilities plus a massive range of customization options! They also complain about there being no local multiplayer race option and that the single player mode is a massive let down.

A couple of years ago, Codemasters attempted to revive the top down racing genre with Toybox Turbos. That said, some complain about the controls, saying the cars are too sensitive and the controls are basic.
