Talking About Games: Vigilante 8 Review

Talking About Games:

"Most likely anyone interested in purchasing this title will intend to do so for the nostalgia factor, but anyone making that leap will be disappointed. The nadir of this entire experience is embodied in the game's tagline, "Not your father's V8." Even though the graphics have seen some improvements, the lack of any linear, cohesive campaign really feels like a huge departure from the good old days, and you'll likely spend hours wondering why this thing or that thing wasn't included in the game, only to realize you were thinking of some other title. In my case, I wondered why the soundtrack was full of generic, wordless music tracks and not the more stylish Mighty Mighty Bosstones that I remembered." (Vigilante 8: Arcade, Xbox 360) C-/A+
