A throwback to generations of consoles ago when we saw multiple "destruction" type racing games such as Destruction Derby and Demolition Racer. It offers no split screen mode, which sucks, but it has a good career mode for offline play plus you can set up whatever kind of race you want. Plus online play with robust options.
The racing is actually top notch, and the damage on the cars is realistic looking and often hilarious/infuriating. One of the career races has you driving a tiny three wheeled van versus a grid of 23 full length buses. And sure, if you can get out in front, you'll soon start to leave the buses in your dust, but one good whack from a bus and leave your vehicle on the verge of death. And maybe two laps into the six lap event you start to see how shitty buses are as demolition racing vehicles as wrecked and eliminated buses litter the race track.
You can also race on lawn mowers, tractors, and couches. It retails for $40. If you're looking to scratch that DD itch, this did it for me. I've been on the verge of buying a PS Classic so I could open it up and install DD Raw on it but now I don't need to.
