Player's Review
Impact Racing was developed by Funcom and was released in 1997 on Saturn and PlayStation.
The game plays over 13 stages and you are pretty much just racing against the clock. There are 6 bonus stages and to reach them you need to destroy a specific amount of other racers (which can be done across multiple levels until you hit the requirement). If you complete the bonus level and get needed number of kills you will unlock an extra weapon power up. (so do the other racers...)
The item drop system during a race is fairly forgiving. dropping an item after each kill although you still have to keep control of your car to collect it. if you energy is low, it will usually reward just energy until the low energy alarm stops. then it will likely be extra time pickups. collision detection between your weapons and theirs often feels off at times which can add to the annoyance on later levels.
I complete the game on Normal as Hard is just too ....Hard and I only just manage to complete normal as you need to not only survive, but also get the kill count on the final stage to actually win the game. I unlock some cheat modes but as in the usual sega tradition, it asks for you to complete hard mode to unlock more. I don't think so, not this time. The game just isn't that good and from what I have researched the ending is exactly the same (apart from listed cheats).
