Reception

The Dreamcast and PlayStation versions received "unfavorable" reviews according to the review aggregation website Metacritic. [7] [8] Jim Preston of NextGen said of the latter console version: "No matter what all the marketing tells you, this has all the grit and soul of an Egg McMuffin," calling it a "LAM3 SK8R". [27]

The game was a runner-up for the "Worst Game" award at GameSpot 's Best and Worst of 2000 Awards, which went to Spirit of Speed 1937 . The staff dubbed it as "unplayable and ugly". [31]
