Rush 2049 is easily the best Rush game yet and thats pretty damn good considering the last 2 games
were also excellent. You start the game out with 4 regular tracks and will have six once you unlock them after
completing the circuit mode.
The Modes in Rush are single race, practise, circuit, stunt and battle. Single Race lets you, race against the computer
or another player. In practise you can collect the coins as well as in regular races but practise gives
you more time. In circuit you play a series of races trying to get in first place overall but need at least 3rd
to advance to the next difficulty.
The other mode, stunt is my favorite, where you hit huge jumps and try to do as many flips as possible and then
land it for points. Getting more points will unlock more stunt tracks. A new feature that I really like is
that you now have wings to help you with your flips. The wings will let you do tons of flips in the air.
The gameplay in 2049 in outstanding. I find the races can get pretty intense when you're trying to unlock something and are extremely fun as well. There are 16 coins on each level to collect. 8 silver and 8 gold. When you get these coins you will get new vehicles and so on. Also you can get a lot of vehicle upgrade secrets once you have unlocked stuff. The graphics are some of the best on the N64 but sometimes its a bit fuzzy and hard to see. Especially in multiplayer but this shouldn't bother you much because you'll get used to it.
In the end Rush 2049 comes out as one the best N64 titles to date and I really suggest you buy it especially if you're into racing games like I am. You're going to play it for a long time trying to unlock everything and believe me its worth it.
