Sprint Cars race onto Playstation 2

Liquid games have today confirmed
a March release date for the latest in their family of arcade racers: Sprint
Car Challenge.

With a toe-tapping soundtrack, a choice of a dozen rally or sprint cars and
a frenzy of power slides and high-speed collisions, Sprint Car Challenge allows
the player to jostle for position whilst hurling ultra-light high-powered cars
around a selection of dirt circuits. Of all the world’s motorsports, Sprint
Car racing is the most extreme. Now with this frantic arcade-style racer, Liquid
games brings all the excitement of the sport to the Playstation® 2, in time
for the 2005 Sprint Car World Showdown in Australia.

Available for under ten pounds, Sprint Car Challenge has many of the features
that one would expect from a £40.00 game; split-screen two player racing,
a full championship mode, test-drive options, chassis and engine damage, and
unlockable bonus vehicles and tracks; the latter sustainable only as long as
the player maintains a high enough points level. Players are awarded points
for the style and flair of their slides and collisions as they swerve sideways
around corners or smash spectacularly into their opponents’ vehicles, overturning
them if they can.

In addition to the classic dirt ovals of real racing, this unique fun game
features extreme circuits which test the players’ skills and nerve across ice
and sand, plus starlight challenges,
which offer the option of competing at night. Sprint Car Challenge offers great
value non-stop racing action to keep the casual gamer and hardcore racing fans
alike on the edge of their seats.

Commenting on Liquid’s latest release, publishing director, Kevin Hassall said;

“This is just the first title that we’ll be announcing this year, as part
of our progressively more hectic release schedule. This is an easy to play game
from an established developer, aimed at the casual gamers that are forming an
increasingly large proportion of the PS2 games market. Sprint Car Challenge
will bring an interesting twist to a popular genre.”

Sprint Car Challenge will be available on PS2 at the end of March from Liquid
Games, with a recommended selling price of just £9.99.
