''At 1.30am last night, I couldn't tell you whether I loved or hated TrackMania. What I can tell you is that I was playing it. Or more specifically, playing one track. Again and again. Determined to beat it. Increasingly tired, and as such increasingly unable to make the perfectly timed turns to get that Gold medal that sat between me and sleep.
Right, so there's some confusion to deal with. What exactly is going on with Nations Forever? It's free. Utterly and entirely free. As was the previous TrackMania Nations - a stripped down version of the series created for use in the Electronic Sports World Cup. However, Forever is also a free add-on for the most recent retail release, TrackMania United. The result is, United is now called TrackMania United Forever, and when purchased new will come with 3D glasses to take advantage of the new 3D mode. Muddled yet? Well, wait.''
Developed by Nadeo, this racer was released in 2008—a whopping 8 years ago. While this title has quite a bit of age, that certainly hasn’t degraded its quality. Coming from a long running series which has time and again proven to be a shining force in the arcade-racer genre, Trackmania Nations Forever is a game that belongs in the collection of any racing fan.
