| Game Description |
You probably feel like a crash test dummy when you're playing this game it's not only a racing game, but you get points for wrecking your enemies! The amount of points you get depends on how you hit them e.g. you get more points for getting them do a 360 other than driving into theirs sides at high speed. So go ahead and wreak havoc.
Destruction Derby Arenas puts gamers behind the wheel of a supercharged wrecking ball of American muscle, and turns loose up to 20 competing garage gladiators online. Insane tracks with interactive obstacles like hydraulic lifts; speeding trains and huge ramps will obliterate the competition… if they don’t smash you first.

Amazon.co.uk Review
Destruction Derby Arenas marks the PlayStation 2 debut of one of Sony's classic PSone game series. The pile-up is back, folks, and it really is messier than ever. Arenas provides more than a mere renovation of the Destruction Derby template, however: it takes the car-smashing mayhem to a new height--specifically, it takes the action online. Up to 16 players can engage in arena-based carnage of the vehicular type. Mindless fun, granted, but fun nevertheless.
The selection of race circuits is geographically and thematically comprehensive, taking in airports, Chinatowns, beach resorts and more. The choice of motors and drivers on offer, too, is healthily broad. And Arenas is one of those titles that satisfies with its unlockable features. There are plenty of rewards here for those who drive well.
Whether racing through a championship or competing in an every-car-for-itself American-style demolition derby--online or offline--the focal point of the action in Destruction Derby Arenas is forever that of damage. Which sets Arenas apart from most other driving games, and also gives it a compelling raison d'etre . Thanks to the power of the PS2 hardware, that damage can be pretty impressive; and thanks to the immediate gameplay it's pretty enjoyable too. -- Jonti Davies |
