ATV: Quad Power Racing
- ATV: Quad Power Racing (2002 on Game Boy Advance)
Description official descriptions
ATV: Quad Power Racing introduces to the PlayStation the slightly unusual sport of four-wheeled all-terrain vehicle racing.
The game includes three different terrain types (forest, desert and ice) with four tracks each. There are Amateur and Pro Championships for every terrain type, with Amateur and Pro tracks differing slightly. The Amateur trophy has to be won to unlock the respective Pro circuit. Players can select from six different riders and at the start there are two quads per terrain available to choose from. Winning each Amateur circuit unlocks two more per terrain and winning everything unlocks the best quad in the game.
Gameplay is seen from either 3rd (behind the quad) or 1st person perspectives and players can select from manual or automatic transmission. The quad and the rider are controlled independently from each other: the right analog stick steers the quad while the left stick is used for leaning the rider, which is important while cornering: incorrect leaning can lead to the rider being thrown off, losing valuable time.
Besides the Championship mode, there are Single Race, Time Trial and Two-Player modes. Tracks and quads to be used in those modes have to be unlocked via winning Championship races first.

Could have been named ATV Quad Power Dump - it's that bad
The Good
The menu system is the best part of the game. Actually looks not too bad. High hopes unrealized within the game.
The Bad
For a game released near the end of the PlayStation it looks and plays like it was the developers first game and feels like it should have been released 5 years earlier. The graphics are bad, the sounds are horrible and the physics are atrocious.
The Bottom Line
This was the last PlayStation game I bought before I got my PS2. Easily the worst game I've ever bought for any system
