No microtransactions No grind No online Just simple and pure fun for half an hour Worth it
I got this at 75% off, and completed basically all of the game in <30 minutes. It's not [i]offensively[/i] bad, but for a 2002 game they could have done with some extra cars and tracks. I didn't even see any of the other game modes that are listed in the About section, but that might be me not giving enough of a damn to look into it more after clearing the Special Stage. I guess it's okay if you want to check if your PC can render 3D at all, but for the love of god LOWER the audio to 1-5% or you WILL go deaf.
Fue entretenido
日本語には対応していませんがシンプルなのでサクサク遊べます。 挙動に作り込みを感じます。レトロ系で走り応えを期待している方にはおすすめ。 ブレーキを踏み続けコーナーに入るとドアンダーになったり、 適当にアクセルを抜くと巻き込んでいったりと どうやったらうまく走れるか考えながら走るのが楽しい。 マシンもコースも細かな作り込みが良い意味で価格不相応でびっくりしました。 ドライバー視点はメーターもハンドルも動く!すごい!! 最初は1コースしか選べませんが1位になれば次のコースが解放されます。 進捗に応じて新しい車種も登場します。 マシンセッティングはできません。性能はマシンに依存。 勝てないと感じたら別の車種を選択してみると良いかも。 MT設定はゲームオプション⇒パフォーマンス⇒ギヤからMTを選択すると変更できます。 コントローラー非対応ですがスチームの機能でキー割り当てをすれば普通に使えます。
Midnight GT: Primary Racer delivers a straightforward arcade racing experience that proudly embraces the style and sensibilities of older street racing titles. Developed by Jordan Freeman Group and Rage Software and published by Funbox Media Ltd and ZOOM Platform Media, the game transports players into the underground automotive scene of Japan, where reputation is earned one race at a time. Rather than pursuing photorealistic visuals or complex simulation mechanics, it focuses on delivering a nostalgic journey through neon-lit roads, spirited rivalries, and the pursuit of becoming the ultimate midnight racer. The game's greatest strength lies in its atmosphere. From the moment players enter its world, Midnight GT captures the essence of late-night Japanese street culture. The combination of city highways and rural routes creates a sense of variety, while the constant emphasis on speed and progression keeps the experience moving at a brisk pace. Players compete in races to unlock additional content and improve their standing among fellow drivers, reinforcing the idea that every victory is a step toward greater recognition. The concept is simple, but it remains effective thanks to the game's commitment to its theme. Vehicle handling favors accessibility over realism, making Midnight GT easy to pick up regardless of racing experience. Cars respond quickly, allowing players to focus on mastering corners and maintaining momentum rather than managing highly detailed physics systems. This arcade-oriented approach gives races an energetic pace that feels reminiscent of early-2000s racers. Although seasoned simulation fans may find the driving model lacking in depth, those seeking a casual and nostalgic experience will likely appreciate its uncomplicated nature. The progression system, built around winning events and unlocking opportunities, provides enough incentive to keep pushing through the game's various challenges. Visually, Midnight GT is unmistakably a product inspired by an earlier era of gaming. Its environments are functional rather than highly detailed, and character presentation takes a back seat to the racing itself. However, the nighttime settings work in the game's favor, with dimly lit roads and urban backdrops helping establish a memorable atmosphere. There is an undeniable charm in its presentation, especially for players who grew up with racing games from the PlayStation 2 and original Xbox generations. While modern audiences may view the graphics as dated, others will see them as an intentional throwback that complements the game's overall identity. Customization and content variety are somewhat limited compared to contemporary racing releases. Players expecting a massive garage of vehicles, extensive tuning options, or online multiplayer features may come away disappointed. Midnight GT instead focuses on a narrower experience centered on solo progression and arcade competition. This limited scope means the game can become repetitive over extended sessions, particularly once players have seen the majority of its tracks and gameplay systems. Nevertheless, its modest ambitions help keep expectations grounded, allowing it to succeed within its chosen niche. The audio presentation supports the action effectively, featuring engine sounds and music that fit the underground racing theme. Combined with modern additions such as Steam Cloud support and multiple language options, the package offers a few conveniences that help bridge the gap between its retro design and contemporary platforms. It is evident that Midnight GT is aimed less at players seeking innovation and more at those looking to revisit the kind of racing games that once filled store shelves decades ago. In the end, Midnight GT: Primary Racer is a competent and enjoyable homage to classic arcade street racers. It does not attempt to compete with today's biggest names in the genre, nor does it need to. Instead, it succeeds by delivering an accessible experience wrapped in a nostalgic presentation that celebrates Japan's legendary midnight racing culture. Its dated visuals and limited content prevent it from reaching greater heights, but its charm and focused design make it worth considering for fans of retro racing experiences. Rating: 6/10
This was 62p on promotion. No dice with the Xbox controller. But I enjoyed my hour with it. Other games this can not be the case. You are either not challenged or not bothered. Here, what there is, I enjoyed beating. Short, cheap tat
値段相応ですが、如何にも昔のPCゲームらしい出来
Its a little racer in the style of Screamer or Ridge Racer. Only 6 Tracks, and new faster cars if you finished it once. Is done in 20min.
