Hi all,

We have just published a review of *Trackmania DS*. If you could post a

*/The //Trackmania game design as a whole also suffers under scrutiny,

as always. The game is very easy to pick up and accessible, but there¡¦s

a feeling that it perhaps blows its load too early. There are only three

different cars and track environments after all is said and done, each

one of them available from the start. There are new tracks and skins to

unlock, true ¡V but in the long run that isn¡¦t reliably enticing.

The result of this then is a game that is perfect for a casual

playthrough but which falters a bit if you¡¦re looking for a game that

will continually call you back. The levels are all short and snappy,

perfect for satisfying your racing craving, but they aren¡¦t deep or

involved enough to really fill you in the long run.

With well-rounded multiplayer options and a comprehensive editor, /

/Trackmania DS is an excellent game for groups to enjoy and the

technical achievement of having all of it running so smoothly is

awesome. It¡¦s a shame it¡¦s a little let down by a lack of hardcore

appeal and touchy handling, especially since these are really rather

minor issues./

*Cheers guys!
