E4G: Hydro Thunder Hurricane Review

E4G: Last week we had a review for Limbo, which was the first game in the Xbox Live Summer of Aracde. This week, we've got a review of Hydro Thunder Hurricane, or HTH for short. Now, HTH can be described as a simple boat racer. What's nice though, is that it's much more than that. Filled with intense races, objective events and championships, it'll keep you on the edge of your seat at all times.

Was quite the entertaining game :D

mmoracerules5012d ago

I prefer LIMBO over this anyday!

mmoracerules5012d ago

Well, the style really doesn't appeal to me...thats my only reason.

DelbertGrady5012d ago

And I prefer Battlefield: BC 2 over Super Mario Galaxy 2. An equally stupid comparison.

Hydro Thunder is a great arcade racing game, Limbo is a great platform/puzzle game. I'll be getting both eventually (damn you Deathspank, damn you to hell!!!).

mmoracerules5012d ago

Didn't really fancy this game, not my type of style :( LIMBO was awesome though!

dkblackhawk505012d ago

Everyone has a different style :P

First 6 posts fill up 2 posters bubbles (for this thread). Might just be me, do you see this often on here?

I love this game actually, worth the 1200 points if you ask me.

The first VP was pretty fun, never played party animals. Hydro thunder is one of my favorites on the DC and this update was on GwG before but still a fun game for anyone who missed it. Never heard of the other two.

Queue the onslaught of "why do they even bother" comments. While i don't totally disagree that Gold games have been awful, every once in a while one pops on their that I try and end up liking. I mean if you have to pay, why complain about games they give you.

CrimsonWing69720d ago

I don’t know why they bother, but on the flip side PS+ is following the same path now that they have Spartacus.

RosweeSon720d ago

Yeah fifa 22 is just the same as 10/12 year old Xbox 360 games 🙄🤦🏻‍♂️ 🤣 do people even think about what they are saying let alone actually typing out and pressing add 🥴🤣

CrimsonWing69720d ago

@RoweeSon

You’re absolutely right! I don’t know what came over me. I’ll be sure to think before I speak from now on. I appreciate your help with showing me how wrong I am.

vallencer720d ago

@rosweeson

I mean honestly speaking fifa 22 is basically the same as a 10/12 year old 360 game since fifa is basically the same every year.

I think Microsoft is trying to make PsPlus look good with these horrible GWG line up.

Christopher720d ago

They're just trying to get people to move over to GPU for better options. Otherwise, whoever is subscribed just doesn't care about the games and just online stuff.

Lightning77720d ago

Basically.

I've said this latest month but GWG is strictly for the casuals who have gold only. Just like you said if you want better options then get Gamepass. GWG is no longer for the hardcore audience anymore.

Deathdeliverer720d ago

The ONLY thing bad about gamepass is how Microsoft completely started taking dumps on games with gold ever since. In my opinion (OPINION) PlayStation plus gave better offerings most of the time but there were times where games with gold would win a few FOR ME. Now it’s a landslide. They should put the same effort into games with gold as they do gamespass. Just take the games off, reduce the price, and call it Xbox Live again.
