ThisisXbox: "Digital Reality’s latest Xbox LIVE Arcade development, Bang Bang Racing, races onto the Xbox LIVE Arcade later this year – but for now, a new trailer showcasing the two camera modes along with the multiplayer options and all of the dangerous and varied objects and obstacles you’ll encounter."
"Digital Reality, the fine folks behind the wonderfully satisfying shoot 'em up Sine Mora, has graced us with their take on the top-down arcade racer...with style. Recently ported over from the mobile platform (it was originally released on Android-based devices in 2011), Bang Bang Racing has been thrust back onto the console. Taking more than a few cues from a few golden gaming classics, does Bang Bang Racing have what it takes?" (darkzero)
"Finally my first video review that I appear in! Does Bang Bang Racing set the roads ablaze or does it just shoot blanks?" - FirstDropShow.com
For people of a certain age Bang Bang Racing will bring back vivid memories of some brilliant top down arcade racers. Whether it’s speeding around the breakfast table in Micro Machines on the Mega Drive or tearing round the track as a cow on wheels in Super Skidmarks on the Commodore Amiga there has, and probably always will be, a place for a well crafted top down racer. Compared to its previously mentioned (much) older peers Bang Bang Racing rarely gets out of first gear.
... that's not weapon-based.
I love the old topdown classics like Micro Machines 2, Supercars, and that brilliant top-down rallygame that was on the SNES...
Same, really looking forward to this - Digital Reality make some great XBLA games. Can't wait.
Top down racing games are making a return :) This is on PS3.
