Beetle Adventure Racing

by black_dragon65 , Nov 08 '01
Pros: You can use a steering wheel with it.
Cons: All the vehicles are Beetles.
Beetle Adventure Racing is a very good racing games compared to most racing games that I have played, because you can turn around and drive backwards. There a lot of shortcuts that you can take on all the tracks and there are point blocks that you...

The New Beetle Makes an Impression on the Nintendo 64

by cbman11 , Sep 08 '01
Pros: Great racing game for Nintendo 64. Awesome levels where you can go pretty much anywhere.
Cons: All the cars are Volkswagen bugs with different designs on them
Some people wonder what the best racing game is for Nintendo 64. Some say it is Rush 2049. Others say it is Cruisin' Exotica or Cruisin' the world. I believe the best car racing game for Nintendo 64 is none other that Beetle Adventure Racing. Beetle...

Nintendo 64's definitive racing game

by NMD85 , Jan 23 '01
Pros: Immersively detailed and interactive tracks ever seen on the N64 since Rush 2
Cons: More tracks were desired
Although many hadn't noticed this game's pure brilliance, Beetle Adventure Racing probably lost a large audience because of the childish look and image the game put up. Sadly, who ever thinks this should be ashamed of judging this game like so. Beetle...

Pros: A rather fun racer, every area of the game is at least above average
Cons: hmm...crappy manual credits....that'll do!
When i rented this game i looked at it an' said, "Wow, another f*ckin' racin' game, woo diddly hoo". Now i feel as though i should kick my own ass for saying something so stupid. That is, nothing beats the sheer intensity and gameplay finesse of...

I'm sorry, but it's a terminal case of Farfurgnugen

by 32_Footsteps Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Sep 24 '00
Pros: Freedom to drive around, decent graphics
Cons: Repetitive, awards bad driving, derivative
I don't quite know why, but there are a glut of racing games out there for every video game system on the planet. Why, I wouldn't be surprised if someone already released two or three for the X-Box and the system isn't even due out for about another...

Hey, Beetles Make Great Racecars!

by Horhay Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Aug 02 '00
Pros: 6 Huge tracks, very challenging, lots of hidden goodies
Cons: Needs a couple of more tracks, music should be more involving
Intro: Welcome to a world where Volkswagen Beetles rule the raceways. Okay so it may not be Mario Kart or Diddy Kong Racing, but hey that’s a good thing. Beetle Adventure Racing surely represents its title nicely; it’s one big ...

This Game is Buggy

by Outbanks , Jul 11 '00
Pros: Levels are unique. Hidden areas
Cons: Multiplayer, control, crashes, glitches
I do have to admit, this game was pretty fun. The graphics weren't too bad, the sound was decent, and the courses were fairly interesting. I loved the fact that in practically every level, there is some hidden area that adds a unique twist to the game....

Not a racing fan., but I like.

by Wahoo1975 , Jul 11 '00
Pros: GREAT party game
Cons: 1 player needs help
Ok, in all honesty I am not big on most racing games. So, I was cynical going in. It quickly faded. Beetle Adventure Racing isnt the best game in the world if you look at purely the one player racing game.but, venture into the addictive multi player...

Pros: good graphics, good game-play
Cons: none
When I read an expert's opinion on this in Nintendo Power Magazine, it said that the game was heard to use and just not fun. Still, I bought it. And, you know what, that review was wrong. This is one heck of a fun game. There are so many suprise and...

Can u say "VW's are fun!"

by y2jake , Apr 07 '00
Pros: racing VW Beetles, say no more
Cons: way to many shortcuts
The first time that I played this game I noticed how well the colors in the game were distributed. It kind of looked like S.F. RUSH which is another game that has a lot of short cuts but I don't think by far that RUSH has as many shortcuts as beetle...

Nothing like it!

by sybhusk , Mar 31 '00
Pros: graphics, replay, courses.
Cons: control (somewhat), slowdown, lower detail in multiplayer.
If you are a racing fan, then this game is just for you! It is like no other racing game of this time (that I know of). It does not have true "tracks". Instead it's courses are packed with shortcuts and secrets, like a movie theatre and a cave...

Bumper Beetles!

Pros: Fun, Fast, and hey, if i can beat my dad...
Cons: The courses or tracks, all seem pretty much the same.
I enjoy Beetle Adventure very much, whether I'm kicking my dads butt or just against the "comp" cars. There are a few things that I feel could be a bit better, but not enough to refer to it as a bad game. I especially like the Beetle...

Pros: Good cars and features.
Cons: Short list of tracks.
This game "Beetle Adventure Racing" is a very well planned game that puts you behind the wheel of a Beetle car. The nintendo 64 company should be proud that they have this game with their company. The game has a few problems, that maybe if...

by luke8400 , Dec 19 '99
Pros: Great graphics, multiplayer, bonuses, everything!!
Cons: Nothing

Beetles & Rockets

by capcap , Dec 18 '99
Pros: Good graphics, wild driving and jumps. Awesome multiplayer Beetle Battle mode.
Cons: Steering is a little loose and frustrating. Not enough quality Beetle Battle Boards. And it's only beetles, no other car models.
Beetle Racing is NOT a racing sim. It's an over the top racing game with wild jumps and a variety of items to crash through. However, I'd have to say I'd be a little disappointed with the game if it wasn't for an insanely addictive multiplayer mode...

Pros: High speed races

by xToXox , Nov 01 '99
Pros: Sounds/Music, Huge Levels, Lots of Cheats, Smooth lovely graphics
Cons: multiplayer gets boring, not much else
The Nintendo 64 has always had a small game library. There is rarely a good game that gets lost in a shuffle, or a horrible game that doesn’t get blasted by critics and gamers alike. There is never a game (good or bad) that doesn’t get some publicity or...

Brave Adventures in Beetle World Racing!

by Carazariah , Oct 04 '99
Pros: Great Game play, Stunning Visuals, Great Multi-player
Cons: Few Starting Tracks, One car and one Car Only to Race with and Against the Beetle
An adventure indeed.
The game catches me off guard every time I put it into the N64 console. I think it's the funky music coming out of my speakers or maybe it's because I turn my stereo onto Video in and put the volume on 20 or so. Anyway the...
